Chase and dad throwing the football

Sorry for the video being sideways.  But you can still see them throwing the ball.  Chase is really looking forward to playing football with his cousins and uncles and Grandpa when we go back to the States in a few weeks.

Chase Reading

Chase has improved so much on his reading this year.  When we first started school he hated to read but now he actually asks if he can read more than what I have planned each day!  

Snow Day!

It started snowing Saturday around 6:30 p.m. We were only supposed to get around 2 - 4 inches but we ended up with 6 inches. Chase was so excited to see it snowing. We spent the morning outside playing and now it's time for some hot chocolate and a good movie!

Beavers

Chase joined the Beaver Scouts a few weeks ago and last night he received his first two badges and his uniform. He was very proud of his badges. He has made some friends and is looking forward to camping this summer.

Student of the Year Award and Orange Belt

Yesterday Chase received his orange belt and he also received the Junior Student of the Year award for 2011! We are so very proud of you Chase, well done!

Chase's comic book

Grandma and Grandpa sent Chase a Crayola Story Studio Spiderman set that let's you add your picture to the Spiderman Comic Book. Chase loved the fact that Spiderman was talking to him and that he was a part of the action. Chase's Uncle Jimmy, Aunt Christy and Nicholas also sent him a Crayola Story Studio set which is from the movie Cars. He's anxious to do that one next, but first he has to sit still long enough to color the pages in the first comic book, which is a challenge. Thanks Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Jimmy, Aunt Christy and Nicholas for the cool gifts!
