Princess P made her First Holy Communion last Sunday. She was very excited and looked beautiful. Of course, I am a little biased. She was thrilled with her dress. I am so glad she liked it. It was a collaboration. She said what she wanted and Mama made it. I couldn't be more proud of my sweet little girl.

Spring has finally settled in here. Actually in the past few days, summer has hit. We decided to take the kids fishing on one of these wonderful spring days. I guess I should admit it was my husbands idea not mine. I don't fish. I just go and watch.

Lego Man fishing. he was trying to avoid 3 HUGE snapping turtles that were swimming nearby.

Here is a picture of one of the snapping turtles. 

Princess P caught this fish all by herself. She was very excited.

Lego Man didn't catch anything, but daddy caught a trout.

Our kitty had surgery so he has been stuck inside ALL week. He has not been very quiet about his dislike for this fact. He even tried to wake me up at 5:30 by meowing in my face. I think he was hoping I would walk to the door and let him out in a sleepy state. 

Thankfully, I am smarter than him.

He did trick Lego Man though. He took the cat outside for a walk on a leash and the cat got away. He entered a whole too small for Lego Man to fit through so he let the leash go. Mr. Kitty saw his opportunity and seized it. He bolted. Luckily, Lego Man caught him. We thought it was funny that he was outsmarted by a cat.

The kids have been studying Ancient Rome the past few weeks and yesterday we talked about Pompeii. After our lesson, the kids asked if they could make a small volcano Lego Man got in a science kit.
