End of School

We said farewell to our wonderful teachers for the 2018-2019 school year!
Marie had a fabulous year with Mrs. Tepfer learning so much about herself, reading, science, social studies, and more. 
Bennett had so much fun with Mrs. Munden learning about space, math, reading, and stepping up his building skills in makerspace too.  

 
Brooks had a great year in preschool too!
Ms. Meredith taught him so much but especially focused on his writing and ABCs. 
 
 One of his favorite days was his spring program where he got to dress up as a doctor.
In the 2019-2020 school year we will have a 4th grader, 1st grader, and Pre-K student.  
They will all be in the same building!  It will be fun seeing them walk in together every day.  
Here comes summer!

Dancing the night away

Mother's Day weekend is always a blur - it doubles as dance recital weekend too.  

Marie is a dancer and she loves it!  She has no stress about it, she loves watching her friends succeed at it, she tries her best, she even added 2 classes this past year just so she could be on stage longer. 
I love watching her. 

So, our weekend is full of 2 shows with hair, makeup, costume changes, 
hair changes for each song (a new request this year).  




 Brooks saw some of the show but the poor guy was so tired Friday night.

Sunday was Mother's day - the kids and Andy made the day special like always complete with breakfast in bed, a hike in one of my favorite places, and a boat ride.  Life is good!

Birthday fun begins!

 When Andy's birthday arrives it means our crazy month of celebrations begin!  
This year, we made a homemade raspberry cream cheese frozen pie and at some yummy BBQ. 

 
 We really are blessed with this guy.  The kids thought of 36 things that made him so special and wrote them down on their card for him.  
Happy Birthday Andy - here's to many more!
