Happy Birthday Hampton

Hampton had a wonderful birthday. He celebrated it with Grandpa Jimmy and Grandma Nyla. Hampton got golf clubs and a new bike for his birthday.

Happy Birthday Hayden

On Saturday Jarom and I surprised Hayden with a special glow in the dark bowling party with his buddies. He was totally surprised.

The bowling Jedi's

Hayden and Parker took their bowling very seriously.

Hampton, Jake and Kyle had a blast playing with the glow in the dark light sabers. (Bubble Wands.)

George Hannah Washington

Hannah had the chance to be the lead in a performance called "United We Stand." She performed at Lakenheath Elementary with other 3rd grade students. She had the chance to sing a short solo and play the part of George Washington. It was great to watch our special daughter perform so confidently.

My Ballerina

Even though our Hannah is a self proclaimed "Tom Boy" she still loves girlie things. This month she had her recital for ballet. She performed a spanish dance with her beloved fan. The recital was simple and fun. A real treat since her teacher never allows the parents to even peek into the windows of the classroom. Hannah enjoys attending ballet at the Youth Center each week. Her teacher is a wonderful, strict Russian ballerina.

On the Way to Eagle

Hampton earned his Tenderfoot badge along with four Merit Badges. Thanks to Dad's encouragement and help from his troop Hampton earned Citizenship in the Nation, Personal Management, Citizenship in and the world and of course the Dentisty Merit Badges. Way to go Hampton!

Hannah and Blue Peter

Hannah had the opportunity to be chosen to be in a British Television show called "Blue Peter." It is one of the world's longest running children's television shows. She did a segment called "What it's like to be me." They filmed what is it like to be an American Military Child living in England. The show will be aired April 29th.

They filmed her all day doing things that a typical American Child would do living on a Military Base. They started at home with our family. Then filmed her at school with her class doing the pledge of Allegence. They also filmed her at the store, at Burger King, at the dental clinic with her Dad and rollarskating with her friends.

We are so proud of our little Hannah. She did a great job and didn't complain one bit. (It was a very tiring day.) It gave us a great appreciation for movie stars and all the work that goes into a show.

Here is the link to the television show in case to want to check it out on April 30th. http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc/bluepeter/.

At the bus stop

Hannah talked about how she has to carry a bus pass to get on the bus and to enter the base.
