Talent Show Night

 Iron Man is a hit in our house right now. So this Power Rangers costume from 5 years ago doubles as that. Also, Power Rangers are big in our house right now. So sometimes they actually use the costume for what it is, finally, after 5 years.
Vincent rocked his new shirt for the talent show. So handsome.

Daniel wears his boots and hat whenever he gets a chance. This is usually on Sundays...or to talent shows.

 So glad to have Maggie as our neighbor. She is our chick expert. I'm talking about our birds. She comes and takes care of them. She wants to be a veterinarian when she grows up. We're letting her practice on our pets.
Vincent sang "Do Re Me" with his first grade class for the school talent show.
They did great and you could tell they practiced a ton for this. There were some other great acts too, several from "Frozen" and an awesome rendition of "What does the fox say" by one of Gavin's DK classmates and his brother.

Meet the New Chicks

 We got some new chicks about 5 days old. They were soft and cute for about two minutes. Then they turned into teenagers. They live in the brooder box in our garage under a heat lamp until they are 6 weeks old. Then they will move out to the chicken coop and run that I'm building for them. It's a big project. But the boys are loving their new pets.
Daniel chose Snowy for his bird. He loves her and holds her often.
 Gavin's chick is named Aidan. He has two Aidens in his class and apparently likes the name. Nickname: Beakpuncher.

Vincent's chick is named Blackfeather. He's not crazy about holding the chicks.

 For the 100th day of school, all of the first graders dress like they're 100 years old.
 Vincent is a goofy kid. He's really smart and is doing good in school. Sometimes he gets a little distracted though. Sometimes...a little...
