National Block Architecture Championship

Heather wins. I mean, really...who else just sits down on the floor to play with blocks and looks up five minutes later..."can't you tell, it is the engine car of a train?". And, yes, we could all see it...can't you? She is amazing in a lot of areas, but building with blocks might be her forte! Here are some of the other competitors' pieces of work. The best part is that the kids were trying to copy her "thumbs up". Check out this series of pictures...I know it is a lot, but watch K's mouth in all of them...it is really funny.

Here is C's block creation...he was the runner up! :)

We had a great weekend. My very wonderful friend Emily graduated with her Doctorate in Audiology last weekend, so this past weekend we had a surprise party for her. It was a lot of fun and a well kept secret. Nana and Pops came through here on Friday to hang out before going to East Texas for Pops' side of the family's little gathering. We had a good time and got a decent picture of all of them together...

Today we went to the police station and had a great time. The community officer showed us around...we got safety coloring books and saw the inside of a police car. C is really into going to police stations and fire stations...we do the fire station quite often...he is a regular!

And, last but certainly not least, we enjoyed having Daddy at home a little this weekend...bedtimes stories are the best!!! Have a great week...
