Loving the Snow!

We are enjoying our Christmas in the snowy north! Micah has embraced every aspect of the snow and even loves shoveling. We built a snowman in Uncle Kurt's front yard.
Snowball fight with Lao Ye!
It's a winter wonderland.

Children's Christmas Musical

The Cherub Choir at church was invited to participate in the children's Christmas musical. Micah had so much fun singing the songs and learning the choreography. And then on the night of the musical he put everything he had into it. Enjoy!

Our Budding Beethoven

Micah loves music. He loves to listen, sing and play. Our house is always full of music. I can't wait to see what he does with this love as he grows up.

Happy 4th Birthday, Micah

My big boy turned 4 this week. Here's the birthday boy all ready for school!
After school Micah had a party at the jumpy place.
Look at the springs on that boy!
Blowing out the candles on the birthday cake.
Monster truck birthday cake.
The cake was blue. Not just the icing, the actual cake too!
Mical was king for a day.
Micah's presents went in the blue wagon. Pretty cool.
Wow, what a haul! Thank you everyone!

Micah's First Day at PreK

This week, Micah started school at the local public school. Mama was nervous because this means a five full days of school each week. Micah was excited because he gets to carry a backpack! We got up early to pack his backpack for school.
All packed and ready to go.
I can't believe how big and grown up he is.

Visit from Lao Lao and Lao Ye

Lao Lao and Lao Ye recently came for a week's visit. Micah was thrilled to spend time with his grandparents. (I think they enjoyed it too). We mostly stuck around home and spent family time together.

Stopping at the Redneck Gourmet.
Micah enjoying his sweet tea. Yes, he's a southern boy who happens to have been born in China.
No visit to the ATL is complete without lunch at Chik-Fil-A.
Yum! Nuggets!
Picnic lunch at the park.

Happy Independence Day!

It was time for a 4th of July tradition, the Peachtree City 4th of July Parade. Ashley and Cole came over early in the morning. We picked up Tiffany, Tasha and Jennifer on the way and our little golf cart caravan made our way across town. We got there early to stake out our spot along the parade route. There were golf carts lining the road as far as the eye could see!
The boys had time to share a snack.
Finally the parade started. Micah loved the firetrucks.
But the sirens were a little too loud.
We all got to partake in popsicles handed out by the Fayette Piedmont Hospital.
At the end, we all piled back on the golf carts and joined the parade of golf carts driving home.
