Brad and I went to Karbach brewery, a local brewery of craft beer, for a beer tour/tasting and dinner. The weather was just perfect, and we had a great time at a very fun place.
I developed the flu the next day (Saturday) and stayed home from work for a couple of days. By Tuesday I was much better, and the kids and I made the most of the afternoon home and made cards and cupcakes (red velvet) for Brad. I miss this.....
I have to point out James's card. He was so proud of it (rightfully so) and in particular that he folded it like a card and it read "To: Dad, From: James". Biggest boy
We love Brad/Dad!
And Luke loves cupcakes!
Ok, I have to mention James's dinosaur class project. Brad was so excited for this project, and they researched and discussed the diplodocus for weeks. James had to make some sort of visual and give a presentation of five facts (1. it's the largest dinosaur, 2. it weighs as much as four elephants, 3. it's the size of two buses, 4. it's a plant eater, and 5. it has a small head and brain). He drew the poster himself, and Brad ordered a model for them to assemble together. We didn't exactly wait until the last minute, but just FYI: it's impossible to do a dinosaur model in one night. It didn't help that this thing was apparently manufactured at the same place as Ikea furniture---no instructions, just two "helpful" pictures. This model was such a pain, and Brad and I ended up super gluing it (and my fingers)! In the end, it was a memorable project for all of us. Look how proud this boy is!!
