Lucy helps Brent with math

I found Brent this morning doing his math on the couch, with Lucy's help. Notice that Lucy has the textbook under her paws?? She's NOT supposed to be on the couch...which is why all the couches are covered??? Actually, this is the first time I've seen her up on one for longer than it takes me to say, "Lucy, GET DOWN!!"

Brent makes the HONOR ROLL!!!!

So, his hair may be messy, but he is VERY proud to have earned placement on the honor roll at Kumon. This means he is working 100 pages ahead of grade level.

His mama cried.

Capturing the Essence of Brent in a Family Photo

The nice thing about digital photos is that you can immediately check how the photo came out and if you need to take another one. Except that Aunt Bev was more focused in on seeing if EVERYONE's head and feet was in the photo----and if everyone was smiling or at least looking at the camera. Who knew to check for minor details like what might be going on with hands, fingers, etc.

Sigh.

Well, I certainly captured the ESSENCE of Brent. ( I feel like Emeril in the kitchen cooking! :)

Reading Warriors

Brent has been captured by the series "Warriors" about clans of cats and their many adventures of battles and keeping of territories.

This is a late night read....

Brent on the obsidian flow trail

This was the obsidian flow near Newberry Crater in Eastern Oregon. Brent, Bryce and mom walked up the trail till we could see the lake. Pretty impressive view, but I think the obsidian was the most amazing. Huge boulders of black glass tumbled across the trail. Wow.

Brent at Chucky Cheese

Brent saw this shirt and HAD to have it. It is a Sonic shirt...I thought that was our recently departed basketball team, but I am informed that he is a hedgehog with super powers. He can travel the speed of sound.

Ok...

Brent Running Lucy at the Park

Ok, Brent REALLY WAS walking Lucy...but she saw the water and wanted to check it out.

Later, Brent RAN her around the park and she enjoyed the exerecise. Brent looked ready to collapse, but Lucy looked at him like, "What? Are we done already???"
