"Rumpus in the Rainforest"

Last week the boys performed in their annual school musical - this year's show was "Rumpus in the Rainforest."

Sawyer the Army Ant

Sutton the Boa Constrictor


Here's Sawyer's song...



I probably won't post Sutton's video since I accidentally left the camera running after his song and there's over 10 extra minutes of video that needs to be edited before it will upload. He was in the back, and it was pretty hard to see him anyway. We'll see...

Enjoying fruit kabobs after the show.

Simon loved to intensely watch all of the singing and dancing, but he had a meltdown every single time the audience clapped and cheered for the kids. Ten songs = ten brief meltdowns. What can I say? The kid doesn't like loud noises and crowds. When we left the performance he spent the rest of the afternoon singing the songs from the show though, so he definitely enjoyed the musical parts!

Sutton's 6th Birthday Party


We had Sutton's sixth birthday party at Extreme Gymnastics this past weekend. He has been taking classes there recently, so he was really excited to show off his gymnastics skills to his friends. He had just a few friends at the party, and it worked out perfectly because there wasn't any waiting in line or overcrowding of equipment. It was a super fun, energetic and sweaty party!

This kid was SO excited to be there and allowed to run free around the gym floor! 

(listening to the rules is boring...)







He was pretty much a blur all afternoon! This kid is fearless!

















I think we were ALL feeling this exhausted and wiped out by the time the party was over! :)
