1.OLIVER was in his 4th grade grade play last week called DINOMOTION. He played a dinosaur and he was a very good dinosaur indeed! Also, I have no pictures of him playing lacrosse because I forget to bring the camera every time and when I did it rained(I'll have to blog some later). But anyway he is turning out to be a great lacrosse player(since I'm an expert, you know) His position is MIDDY, which in lacrosse for dummies terms he plays offense and defense and runs up and down the field the most. At his last game he made two goals! Can you tell I'm proud?
2. OH my Miles-this picture I put on just because he has the very best smile I know. He is busy with Karate trying to get some "MOVES" He takes his test on Thursday to see if he can get some stripes on his belt. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
3.This is the most recent picture of Isabel that I had. Isabel is keeping busy. She just finished up her volunteer work at the library and as Student Body President she is planning the 8th grade formal dance(it's not really a formal, but it is at night, and you do have to wear a dress). She's trying to make up her mind between "A Night in Paris" or "Black and White Formal" I showed her my pictures from my 9th grade formal and it made me feel old because she couldn't get over hair and dress styles.(all I can say is-can I really justify anything in 1988?) She just got her letter of acceptance from her High School for the Honors Diploma Program and is very excited for that. The school year is wrapping up quickly for her.
4.BRAVE, BRAVE, BRAVE- Phoebe decided on Saturday that she wanted her ears pierced.)My rule is that they can have it done when THEY ask for it. They were at Claire's buying a birthday present for someone else. I asked her if she was sure and she said yes. Anyway, she asked if she could sit in my lap. After that she didn't move a muscle, flinch, act nervous, cry, make a sound. SO BRAVE! (the back story there is that Isabel at 9 years old wanted them done but cried, and cried through it all). Phoebe loves her earrings and thinks she looks like a princess, since her ears have pink sparkly jewels in them.
So there you have the low down on the kids but before I leave you, I need to share a few things.
I need someone to watch the movie DOUBT. I need to talk about it with someone. It's one movie in a very long time that actually made me think long and hard about it. I need some opinions on whether you think "HE" did it or not-So either share your thoughts or get out there and watch the DVD so we can discuss.
And last but not least-I'm so excited. One of my favorite singers, PAOLO NUTINI has a new album coming out in JUNE!!!! (Does anyone even call it an album anymore or is that one more thing to feel old about?) His first album NEW SHOES is one of my favorites but I'm ready for something new. So I thought I would share his new video for his first single of the album called CANDY(from watching the video I'm thinking candy has a different meaning) the link is below his picture.

There you have all the excitement that I can offer. I do have to say there is a lot going on in May-so I promise I will have more to offer soon.

what a great family you have! I will try to get my hands on that movie!
I can't believe Phoebe has pierced ears! How cute is she??? I don't even think my Isabel knows what that is, seeing as how I never wear earrings; I should amend this.

You have great kiddos! Miles' smile was the first thing I noticed about your family when you moved back to Denver. It's awesome.
Awesome run down on all the kids. WOW I can't believe Phoebe got her ears pierced! I am always up for a movie night!
Elizabeth,
I saw the movie Doubt last weekend, and I do not think he did it. I think he was a caring father figure that the little boy needed. My opinion may be bases on my dislike for Meryl Streep(sp) and for my need to believe that there are some men in high serving positions that are righteous, and have the best interest of children at heart. I think Meryl Streep had it out to get him and I think Sister James was correct in thinking he was innocent. What did you think?
