Today we received a phone call from the Ventura Charter School of Arts & Global Education (SAGE). Via their lottery, Aaron got one of the 30 kindergarten slots. So we have decided he will start kindergarten in the fall.
Here is a link to their website.

Aaron on the ParentDish Website
If you head on over to the ParentDish website you'll recognize the little boy on their front page. I always thought it was a cute photo but its nice to see that someone else thought so too. Their news items rotate but this link should take you to the photo even after it drifts off the site.

Mother's Day
For mother's day we went to the Huntington Botanical Gardens in Pasadena. Grandma and Grandpa Meraz met us there. After touring the gardens and some lunch (where Aaron entertained us with his favorite mealtime game...'I am thinking of an animal...") we split up. Michael and I took Aaron to play in the children's garden, while Grandma and Grandpa went into the library/museum. Here are some pics from the outing.
At the very end of the day we were excited when a hawk flew down right near us to grab a lizard...it was beautiful! (He is in the center, this pic is him just taking off)

Playgroup Update
Aaron's original playgroup got together today for an afternoon at the park. It seems that the older they get, the more fun they have together. I've added an older playgroup photo from 2005 for comparison. They're growing fast!
Yes, there once was a little girl in the playgroup... Annabel. Her family moved to Arizona for her father's new job but recently returned to Novato in Northern California. Lael and I have stayed in touch and she recently sent me a photo of Annabel and her younger brother, Owen.
Of course, the four boys need to share the playground these days now that their younger siblings are hitting their 2's. Below is the complete group. All boys!
(Hayden, Lucas, Ben, Aaron, Zander, Jacob, Murdoch)

Happy Birthday David
Aaron's friend David turned 8 today and had his party at Pump-it-Up. New bouncers (and a larger variety) made the party even more fun.
Aaron and I gave the boxing bouncer a try with a Father-Son match. I thought the heavy gear would make him lose interest but it didn't. In fact, I've never seen him look so determined and focused.
"Time-out for daddy" was the last thing I heard and the picture below was the last thing I saw...
K.O.
