Easter Time







Trey was so cute to take pictures for me to make Easter cards for the family! He wore his bunny ears he got from the mall and posed away! Of course he had to put some superhero moves in there as well! It wouldn't be Trey without them! He brings so much happiness to my life and makes me smile everyday!

We have pine trees in Tucson! - Mt. Lemmon





Who would've thought, pine trees in Tucson! We took the drive up Mt. Lemmon which goes up to 8000 ft elevation. We are only 20 minutes from the mountain and it was beautiful to watch the landscape go from Saguaro cacti to pine trees! Trey was so excited because we found snow at the top! They even have a ski resort, tiny, and probably only accessible 2 months of the year, but still... :) I little taste of home!

"We Ate Real Dirt & Worms"





Trey got a kick out of eating "dirt cups" for our snack time when learning about the letter "W". I taught him about worms and what they do for the dirt, etc... I made the famous dirt cup desserts with crushed up oreos, pudding and of course gummy worms. When I brought them up he said, "eww... we're going to eat real dirt?" HE LOVED THEM and couldn't get enough of them!

More craft fun...





We also learned about vultures while studying "V". And that led to all types of birds and how they make their nests and lay eggs. We made this nest for our craft out of frosted mini wheats, pretzels and glued them together with melted marshmellows. And don't forget the robin egg candies for the final touch!

"V" is for Volcano

More Preschool Fun! We made a volcano for preschool while studying the letter "V". This was one of Trey's favorite projects we've made! He had to explode it over and over again!
Making the Volcano with clay...
Trey loved getting dirty while shaping the volcano!




Is it dry yet???

"Yep, it's ready mom!"
"Let's paint!"

"EXPLOSION TIME!!"

"Let's do it again!"
