As my fellow Oregonians are aware, you must take advantage of the sunny days when they arrive. As such, we have spent many of our recent beautiful days outside at neighborhood parks. Sometimes we go right after school to a nearby park and other times, like this day during Spring Break we went to a children's show at the library and then played outside at the park across the street. Nora loves the slide the most and is not afraid to climb up the big slide all by herself and slide herself on down. Henry is a sweet big brother and will catch her at the bottom, which she loves.
The library show was a bit of a variety show - some story-telling, acting, magic, dance, and some fun games for the kids. Henry volunteered to be part of one of the skits and did an excellent job reminding me that I need to get him back into his acting classes. He continually amazes me with his acting ability and enthusiasm for getting up in front of an audience and participating in an unfamiliar situation. Unfortunately right now the acting class he was taking previously is held at the same time as his soccer, so we'll have to wait until soccer ends to start acting again.
Here he is "on stage" with the lady putting on the show and then, after the show, trying out the bucket stilts. The library also recently got iPads in the children's area and both kiddos loved using them...yes, even Nora, who is nearly adept at using them as Henry is...it's pretty crazy to watch!
