Ethan and Hudson enjoying an afternoon sledding at the Trailhead Community Clubhouse. Not everyone can say they went sledding in shorts and 73 degree weather! I enjoyed two rides down the snow hill too. It was a lot of fun.

Ethan on his first day of flag football this season. He was so happy to play and for his team to be winning that he practically danced around the field at times. He did really well at capturing the other teams flags helping his team win 5-0. After game 2, Ethan was awarded the team medal for Enthusiasm! That fits him perfectly. I'm so proud of him and his happy, enthusiastic, positive attitude.

Hudson standing with his class the morning of the second grade flag ceremony and Martin Luther King tribute. We watched as they stated the pledge of allegiance, shared Martin Luther King facts and sang a tribute song.

First day of 2014 back to school. Something exciting happened while we were all away – the Path to Greater Education has been placed! Laptops are ordered and on their way! Here are Hudson and Ethan posing with their brick on the pathway after the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Our little lucky bingo winner Hudson won the family brick as the grand prize at school's Bingo night!
