Exchange In The Hive: A few fun things we have done this Spring!!

First, for my followers, we are still waiting on the mistaken absence to be excused - thanks for reading my rant, I get that it is a small thing, but still gets me fired up if I think about it. According to the Principal he is quote "working on this". So far 2 weeks...again, you can't fix stupid...

MOVING ON..
We have done a few fun things and some firsts - so in random order... the first jump on a trampoline..

The wonderful, Christopher Katis took the kids to an Orthodox Greek event that happens the Friday night before Orthodox Greek Easter. They had a wonderful time seeing traditions and ceremonies of another religion. BUT - everyone likes a good jump on the trampoline prior to heading to church. All of these monkeys had never been on a trampoline. I think Seema & Lamiaa spent as much time on their bottoms as they did on their feet. You can see from the faces that they were having fun and from the hand position of Lamiaa, I think see is trying to stay standing vs. pulling the other down...I think!

Another fun event... Beauty & The Beast. For those of you have have seen the Disney movie, you would love the live musical. The costumes, lighting, music and special effects are truly AMAZING! Alex & Joe invited Seema to use Grandma Elaine's :( seat. And the cute Brent Jensen was trapped in Vegas..so both girls were able to go!!! Thanks Alex, Joe & Brent for making this happen.

ANOTHER FUN NIGHT...

Laurie, the PAX coordinator in Utah County invited all the kids to come and participate in the Renaissance Festival at her children's school. It is a wonderful charter school that has a huge focus on diversity and international affairs. They teach Chinese, Arabic & Spanish at all school levels. The monkeys were asked to have a table and then do a short presentation. Look how cute they are.
