TOYS, TOYS, TOYS 

Playtime in 2011 indoors and out

BULLSEYE!

Camden inherited a bow from Grandpa Sona and immediately took to hitting the bullseye!  He frequently visits the indoor range with Dad and Grandpa and shows them how it's done.
Maybe, for his 9th birthday, he may get a brand new bow of his very own.

It's a Blur, and I Mean the Bullseye!

 The winters are long and it seems we have to find things to do.  So, Kevin decided after years and years and years, oh, after a long while, to take up bow hunting again.  It's his wish to spend some more time with his dad and brother going on hunting trips and killing a prize elk or deer or something wild with antlers. 

 HAS ANYONE SEEN THE WIND?

It's questions like the headline that make me laugh! Corynn always has something funny to say, although if she thinks you're laughing "at" her then things quickly turn ugly!  She doesn't like it at all if your laughter is at her expense.  We have to take her moodiness in stride because it changes as often as the weather.

GAME ON!

This is a great moment I hope to capture more frequently in the years to come.  Kids happily playing in the backyard, being patient, working together in sweet
harmony......

Well, until it's time to switch and take turns, then scream-fest begins and big brother is stuck pitching until his arm is about ready to fall off.  And forget running the bases, because that is way to tiresome for Miss Corynn!

CRAFTS is her greatest passion. She will color, paint, cut, paste and decorate anything you give all the day long.  It's fun to see all her creations and enjoy the beautiful artwork she brings home from pre-school.  Sometimes we find things decorated that we really didn't want.  Like, stickers on the doors or walls, marker all down her leg and toenails in a nice navy blue.  It's a frequent phrase in our home, "Corynn? What are you doing?"  That question is usually following a silence for at least 5minutes or so, and trust us, THAT IS JUST NOT NORMAL!   

We decided to get the kids new toys for Easter, Camden an electric scooter and Corynn a new bicycle.  I'm sure they'll get plenty of use out of them as it warms up.  Soon, school is out and Camden will be considered a 3rd grader!  I just can't believe it!  Corynn will officially be enrolled in pre-school next year 2 days a week at her current daycare.

Please keep them in your prayers as we do all of you.      Love, The Sona Clan
