the Schrader 5

Thursday night the boys had a flag football game. I could only stay for half of the game before I had to head off to volunteer at Science Night at school. Of course the second I leave the fields Ethan scored a touchdown! They have only one more game to a perfect season! This is Will looking into a mirror and instead of seeing himself he is seeing Noah! This was Mrs. Vaughn's station at Science Night.
This is Ethan's friend Spencer's big brother Tucker. Did you get all that? He is getting blown away!
I was at the microscope station. It was pretty cool. We had real wooly mammoth hair to look at! We had some other stuff as well that wasn't nearly as cool. There was a shark tooth from an extinct (or as Noah would say, "All stinked up") shark. There was a bug fossilized in amber and they got to look up close at Spanish moss to see how it clings to the trees. The Spanish moss was sort of a bummer since it is everywhere and they have seen it a million times!
Here are a few pictures from Universal taken last Sunday. They love playing in Fivel's playground but it is normally too busy to stay for long. On Sunday they played in there for over an hour!

They love this waterslide. They went on it over and over and over and over (well you get the point).


Although the boys are scared to death of the Jaws ride for some reason, they did pose with him. They went on Jaws once and have refused to go on since.

Look, the space shuttle has landed at Universal. Okay, trick photography! Notice there are NO people walking around us. We had the place to ourselves!
The sun had just come out when Chris took this picture and apparently it wanted to make its presence noticed!
Last night Chris, Debbie, and Bryce came over for dinner. Mike, Melissa, and the girls came over as well after their basketball game. Melissa and I quickly fell asleep on the couch. That is the Friday night reality for teachers! Fridays = Exhaustion! Will has horseback riding lessons in a bit!
