Happy Friday!

Friday has always been my favorite day of the week.  I have not had a Friday at home for several weeks due to many weekend trips to LA for work or play.  So it was really nice to be able to pick up the kids from school and just hang out at home, cook dinner and play outside.

The boys rode their bikes up and down the driveway.  They raced and laughed and had a great time.


In preparation for her three games tomorrow, Kara practiced her cross overs.


But eventually everyone was on bikes riding down the driveway...


Kara is almost done with fourth grade.  She's been playing soccer and basketball and she's becoming very interested in clothes and fashion.  Kara's doing great in school... she's looking forward to a Santa Barbara field trip next week.


Ben is an avid reader and today he made his personal goal... which was to reach 1000% of his school goal for his reading points.  That was not a typo... he set his goal high! 


Jason is eager to start kindergarten.  He went to his registration appointment and then asked if he passed.  I said yes, that he passed and he then asked if he could start kindergarten the next day.  I said, "what am I going to do when you go to school every day?"  His reply was, "don't worry, Mommy.  I'll still come home after school."


A highlight of this week was being asked to be part of a cultural week that Jason's preschool hosted.  Jason taught his friends the correct way to bow, how to say "hello", "thank you" and "good bye" in Japanese and we shared with them different fun facts and Japanese artifacts.  The yakisoba was a hit!


So nice to have time to just be with the family... take pictures... and blog!  Happy day for sure!
