Snow on the First Day of Spring

True crazy "Texas" weather...snow in March. The kids had such a blast - AGAIN. I hope they don't think it snows like this all the time in Texas.
Cameron did a pretty good of catching Daddy's snowball!

Field Trip

Gracie had her first field trip last month. Of course, this being her "first" field trip being at Rogers Elementary, I naturally had to volunteer. Each Kindergarten class visited Frisco Safety Town. Safety Town was built a few years ago when the City of Frisco was building the new Fire Station. It is a miniature replica of Frisco with buildings, stop lights, cross walks, railroad crossing and it's own toll booth. It is designed to teach children the importance of safety. They let the children drive Jeeps while teaching them the importance of seat belts. They also let children ride bikes and teach them the importance of helmets. We only had time to experience the jeeps. Before we went outdoors, all of the children participated in an interactive realistic training. The firemen had a power point presentation with different pictures, some of the children were chosen to place calls to 9-1-1 and tell the operator what the emergency was. It was really funny to hear some of the things the kids came up with, including Gracie. The fireman asked "what else do you think is an accident where you would have to call 911" Gracie raised her hand and said, "if someone shoots your husband". I was beet red! Everyone was laughing histerically...the fireman asked "is there something we need to know"? Ah - NO!!! She really needs to stop watching the First 48 with me.

Gracie & Harris

When it was Gracie's turn to drive, she was NOT a very good driver. She kept driving up onto the sidewalk and running red lights. Whew, no need to worry about her being on the road anytime soon.
