Claudia has been enjoying the visit from Mimi this week. She even took a train to NYC! She was so excited for Mimi to visit and see her at gymnastics and to get her off the bus.

Mothers Day

Mothers Day brunch. I made a reservation for Mothers Day brunch which is normally in the big ballroom with a few hundred people.

Well, they took the reservation, but there was no Mothers Day brunch. However, they had a some other kind of brunch buffet so it all worked out in the end. We had the place to ourselves.

Claudia had a special treat today.  She got to go to Fun Factor with her teacher, Mrs. Beebe-Center and three of her classmates, Maggie, Katie & Madeleine!
She had a blast!  There were treats, games and lots of bouncing :)
She had beautiful weather for soccer this weekend too.  She seems to be really enjoying soccer this season and has made huge improvements.  The Pink Flowers seem to be getting better and better every game.  Her team may even be marching in the Memorial Day parade on Monday!

Claudia is pretty excited that Mimi is coming up next week. She also is excited that her two favorites made it to the final of American Idol. She has watched it each week.

Claudia had her piano recital today.  She got a little nervous, but once things got moving she did great. She got a trophy for youngest student.
