The Lum Catch Up Blog Post

Our home computer got a virus and we were without it for a few weeks.  Now we are back and sharing some of the fun moments we had in the last few weeks.

We finished another season of Soccer and Kylie got another medal

 Kylie attended a Volleyball Match and was the scorekeeper.  

We had Dr. Seuss Week and Kylie dressed the part

Kylie was Star of the Week and earned this Glow in the Dark Sword .. She slept with it and is upset it is no longer working

Practicing her Volleyball moves

St. Patrick's Day Shamrock Pretzel Snacks

Rumor has it the Leprechauns might come by Kylie's class tomorrow.  Last year they turned the toilet green and made quite the green mess. Kylie and I decided to make Shamrock Pretzel Snacks for everyone.  Kylie said her class will like them and they will give them thumbs up and be happy! (We just have to finish the stems when they cool)

Happy St. Patrick's Day from my Chinese Irish Girl (Yes the Straub side has Irish in it we have to represent!)

 

 

The Amazing Adventures of Dr. Wonderful and Her Dog

Today was a happy Sunday, well besides Grandpa leaving to go back to Texas.  We all went to soccer practice where Kylie enjoyed running around and scoring goals with her friends.  Then, Kylie and Brian went to the Family Fun Series as the Broward Center for the Performing Arts.  Today's event was The Amazing Adventures of Dr. Wonderful and Her Dog.  We have gone to 3 others shows to this point but due to our schedules only bought two tickets to each show instead of three.  So today Brian wanted to have time with Kylie.  They had a blast and Kylie came home and told me all about it.  I got to sit on the couch and watch TV and not be interrupted.  That was a gift itself!  *Yes Kylie felt she was a celebrity and had to wear her shades

Grandpa is here

Grandpa had a work trip which brought him to South Florida so he stayed a few days to spend time with all of us.

In his true style, he washed both our cars and waxed them today.  Kylie wanted to ensure she was part of the process.

Daddy makeover day

Last Sunday, Kylie decided that her Daddy needed a makeover.  Check out the new look below. Then Kylie created her own superhero costume.

I need S'more friends like you!

For everyone that knows me, you know that I boycott Valentine's Day at all costs.  However, I will let Kylie make her own opinion on this holiday.  So, instead of giving in to the paper cards or normal Valentine's for Kylie for her class I wanted to do something creative.  (It helps me with the working Mom guilt)  Through the help of a friend we found a fun way to celebrate Valentine's Day with our friends.  

Here is Kylie assembling the treats.  She said Oh Mom I have to write my name so many times! 

The finished product

Field Day!

I don't know about you but I couldn't wait until field day each year and from these pictures it sure seems like Kylie had a blast.  Brian and I couldn't be there but a friend was kind enough to make us feel like we were right there!
