AIG wax museum

Today, Benny participated in the AIG wax museum. It was an author study. Benny picked Lauren Tarshis, author of the I Survived Series. Benny loves these books; really all our kids do - especially the new graphic novels! They are historical fiction. Benny read I Survived the American Revolution, 1776. He had to read the book, do google slides about the author which were then put onto his trifold, and dress up as a character from the book. We even borrowed the costume from our cousins.

So proud of this kid. He recently tested at the reading level of a 7th grader! 

Lily: Prom 2024

Lily had her Prom Friday night. It was for 7-10th grade.

Lily will finish 8th grade next month and turn 14 in June!

Flowers from her Dad

Mom volunteered at the ice cream truck.

I grabbed some mini roses from Harris Teeter and made Lily a sweet little bouquet.

Easter Weekend with the Forman's

We were thrilled to have the Forman's here over the Easter weekend. It was such a sweet time of catching up, adult conversations, enjoying meals together, and watching the kids play.

All EIGHT of them.

We played A LOT of basketball at the park. And I'm happy to report that the 40 year old's have still got it. We even beat the young kids on Saturday morning. 

Exploring downtown Wilmington Saturday afternoon.

Sunday morning we attended Easter at The Bridge. That afternoon we drove out to Surf City to see the beach house, clean the beach house between AirBnB guests, surf and try out the kayak.

Thanks for coming Forman family!
