For Alton and Flat Stanley

We were given the assignment from my Nephew Alton to take his Flat Stanley doll on some adventures in our daily life.
Here are a few of the pictures that I took.

I put them together in a book and mailed them to his first grade class in Iowa City, Iowa.



It was pretty fun!

The Kite Master....

All of the second graders in Benson's school made kites. 

Then the flew the kites on a special kite day.

Family could come watch the kids fly their kites.  Cecilia came with me to the school to watch.

There were some time where the wind was more gusty, and this is Benson's kite at  one of those times.

Great job buddy!

It was a fun afternoon!

Spring Soccer (Or is it grass-nest training!)

This is Benson's reaction to his teammate scoring a goal!

Throughout the soccer season there were a lot of these grass nests made!!  What an expert nest Julia!  They would make the nests when it was there turn off of the field.

This is on a different game day.  Run and get the ball Benson!

Run!  Julia Run!!

Benson really tried super hard this season!

Cecilia was pretty excited to be on her own team this year! 

I was surprised at  how much fun she had!

This is a picture from her final game of the season.  It was a Saturday tournament.  It was so cold that day!

on the tournament day this was Cecilia's only other teammate that showed up to play.  They played against a  team that only had two boys show up!


My sister and her family happened to be down visiting us on the Saturday of the tournament.  It was fun having them down!

After the tournament was over I got a picture with Benson, Julia, their coach and team.

I thought this was a sweet picture of their teammates!

They made crowns!


What a cute princess!

They played pin the crown on the princess.

The last event of the evening was to have cookies and milk while they heard a princess story.

Radio Station Tour


Toward the end of preschool the kids went on a tour of a local radio station.

The lady in charge of the tour was explaining to the kids what the radio station was for.

The kids were able to go in one of the sound booths and make a recording of all of their voices.


This is a picture of Cecilia having her turn to record her own voice.

The preschool class making cute faces for the picture.

These are their silly faces!

Updated Baptism Post!

On January 21st of 2012 Benson Vinton Moore was baptized!! 

I was finally able to get some pictures from the baptism from my Mom's camera!

I love this guy!!

His Grandma Moore gave a talk about the Holy Ghost, and his Aunt Kim gave a talk about Baptism. 

After the baptism I had little buffet of some of Benson's favorite foods!

It happened to be one of the snowiest days of the whole winter that day, but we were able to have family and friends that were able to brave the snow and still come!


We had a fun little kid table!



My and two of my little sisters!  By the way in Japan everybody loves to do the peace sign in pictures!  So we all did the peace sign in honor of Kim returning from her mission to Japan!

We are so proud of Benson!
