Last day of School!

I must say that AB starting school this year was such a change for me that I was so unsure of how her year would go and if she would like it or be happy there, but once she started school all those worries were put to rest.  That girl loved school this year and she didn't want it to end.  So I had mixed feelings on the last day of school because the year had come and gone soo fast and neither of us was ready to say good bye to Mrs. Nations or pre-k buddies.  She was even asking the day after when school started back!  The last day of school they had a play day so it ended with lots of fun and even a slip and slide.  That night we had the Kindergarten graduation which the pre K performs for each year and our Little Boo Peep did such a good job!!

This was the teacher's gift for her sub (because Mrs. Nations badly injured her leg a few weeks before school was out and Ms. Emily had to take over.  So sad to not have Mrs. Nations but Ms. Emily was great as well!) and for Mrs. Murphy the other Pre K teacher.  Mrs. Nations got a back full of goodies and other items to help lift her spirits as she recovered this summer.  The tag read "Thank you for helping me "grow" in God's love! Addie Blaire

All the kiddos went home with some Popsicles that read "Have a "cool" summer! Thanks Pinterest what would a mom do with out ya at the last minute!

Picking up rocks with their toes.

Sack race with Livi.

Britann got to come along for the day as well and had such a good time watching the big kiddos.

She even made a friend of her own!

The sponge race, Addie B put on the jets for this one can't you tell!

She even got to silly string Ms. Emily!  Poor girl got covered that day she was probably wishing Mrs. Nations was there at that point.

Addie Blaire and Emma, buddies!

Little sis had to give it a try too!

Showtime!!  Little Bo Peep had all the right gear to round up her little sheep.

My sweet baby girl is growing up.  She just looked so big standing there it makes me so sad how fast it all seems to fly by!

Out looking for her sheep!

Luckily Mrs. Nations was able to make it for showtime.  She had told me nothing was going to stop her from being there.  Such an amazing woman she is!

Cast and all... She even let the kids sign it!

Little Bo Peep and her sheep! Emma and Livi

oh and Mary had a Little Lamb was there too, Darby Kate!

Little Brit was fired up and ready to sissy in action.

The kids sang and repeated several nursery rhymes throughout the program. It was sooo stinkin cute all of them dressed up like different characters on stage.

AB and Ms. Emily!

Getting some loving from Mrs. nations afterwards.

All the family came to watch Nicki and Pop and "G".

Nana and Pop and Bobo and Mrs. Sharon were there as well but escaped having their pictures taken!

The last week of school was non stop with school and the program on Tuesday and on Wednesday we had the last kids church gathering for the year.  We had a blow up water slide party and the kids all had so much fun.  Brit wasn't much for the slides but couldn't get enough of this baby!

Darby and AB trying it all out!  They even got prizes for their attendance through the year.

This is Tristan he was Mitch's mentoree during confirmation this year and had never been baptized so they did a little impromptu baptism that night right there in the pool!!  BTW I know what some must be thinking but, hey we are Methodist so where ever the Lord calls us we will be ready regardless of time or place for that matter!!!  Just kidding but in all honesty I am so proud of this young boy that decided (without church attending parents) to make such a big decision is really really heart warming!!

Now on to dance recital practice.....to be continued
