Busiest Day of School

Wednesday, June 11th, was quite possibly the busiest day of the school year for us.  It was also the last full day of school. I knew in advance that I would not be able to attend all the festivities, due to the implementation of a new computerized medical records system at my work.  I had asked Amanda to help out and she did. I was so thankful! First thing in the morning was the Awards Assembly for 3rd and 4th graders. Matt, myself, Zach and Kendall all attended to watch Lily. She was able to achieve “A” honor roll for both the 4th quarter and all year!

Brooke, my niece, who is 9 months older than Lily also made both a Honor Rolls.

Next Kendall had a “Fiesta” for the entire Kindergarten Group and Lily had a class party. Zach and Matt went to the class party that was themed “The Awards” . In Lily’s classroom, they have been doing a movie theme all year. The invitations were to come and watch your child walk the “red Carpet”. Here are some pictures to enjoy.

Amanda attended the Fiesta with Kendall and joined her for lunch. After lunch, Matt, Zach and Lily were able to attend Kendall’s class party. So as you can tell I was really not missed at all.

Kindergarten Graduation

Kendall’s official graduation was on Monday afternoon, I was able to get to the ceremony but had to leave before cake!  Matt was standing for pictures and I thought I had a great second row seat, however the pictures tell a different story.  They marched in, sang a song, read a poem and were each given a “special award”. Kendall received the “Ravenous Reader Award.”   At least she is cute in every one of the pictures!

School Readiness- Busy Town

One of the activities that Zach has enjoyed this school year besides being at home with Dad is School Readiness. The teacher, Mrs. Kay, comes out once or twice a month and spends an hours with him working on items that will prepare him to enter Kindergarten. Every other month they have a special activity that the kids can attend. This month was “Busy Town”. Zach has been waiting for this!!! Each child brought a riding toy, no bikes.

Lily’s Field Day 2014

Saturday April 26…Kendall’s Day of Firsts

We have had an exciting day over here. This morning, Kendall and I attended one of her classmates birthday party. It was held at the local skating rink. Kendall has never skated before and she really did a great job only falling about 10 times during the hour and half that she skated. Enjoy the pictures but don’t miss the big news at the bottom…

This afternoon while eating an apple this happened…
