Just thought I'd post some picturesfrom Mitchell's first few weeks of life, including first jogger ride, bathtime, and more. He's such a sweet baby!

Homeless


As of 10:00am today the Costley family is official homeless. We moved out of our home of 9 years and are now squatting at the Leboe's. A big thanks to Mom & Dad for helping to clean the house and Marcus, Garth, Craig, Greg and Parish for all the heavy lifting.

Ethan's Kindergarten Graduation


The graduation ceremony was very sweet, the kids said their bible verses, prayer, songs and even did a little folk dance. Part way through the dance, Ethan looked right at us and said, "I'm sick of this!". When he apologized to Keyarah afterward, she assured him, "It's OK, I don't care!". Can't wait to see what happens in highschool!

The 3 best buddies showed off their finger wag, butt wiggle , taught and perfected by Josh! Trust me, they didn't sit very long for us to get these pictures!

This may be our last family picture as just the four of us! Proud grandma and grandpa came to see Ethan and Josh at the graduation too. We had a few minutes to play in the playground afterward!

A Lot of Bald Heads!






Cedars had a great big head shaving extravaganza to raise money for the Goertzen family! Ethan has been wanting to shave his head ever since Mike did it for him last summer, so this was the perfect opportunity! Rosie Nich had to cut hers if the goal of $3000 was raised and they announced that almost $10,000 was raised as of Tuesday! Over 40 students/staff shaved their heads or cut off their hair to donate for wigs and we got a group shot of them all! We'll certainly see a drop in shampoo sales, maybe we should all shave our heads to save on shampoo to make up for the high gas prices :( ??!!

Cedars Sports Day

There were sprinkles and sun off and on all day but the kids had lots of fun! Ethan was on team purple, they fought hard in the tug-a-war! Ethan got a first place ribbon for the running race of the kindergarten boys, he said it was his fast shoes! Maren had some fun in the field with Hannah and Mya!
