End of the Year Party at the Park

Today, Kaylin's class had their end of the year party. They went to a nearby park, had hotdogs and cupcakes and played. There was no shade at all so it was incredibly hot, but they had a blast. It's so unbelievable to think that this year is almost over. I'm still not used to thinking of Kaylin as a kindergartener. Next year she'll be a first grader. I need time to stand still for just a few years!!! Why do they have to grow up so fast?

Here are a few pictures of her having a great time with some of her friends today. They all wore their tye dyed shirts again, too, so they looked really cute together!

Kindergarten Field Day

Kaylin was supposed to have a field day last Friday but it got rained out and rescheduled for yesterday (Tuesday). It was so much fun! They had all kinds of relay races and contests. Kaylin participated in quite a few of them. And of course, there was tug-o-war at the end. Kaylin's class has 14 boys and only 6 girls, so they had a bit of an advantage in that area and won. They were so excited!

Annlee's Last Day of School


Annlee had her last day of 3 yr pre k on Friday. I was kinda sad knowing that a whole school year has gone by and she's gotten that much older. It's hard to believe.
We took this picture as I dropped her off Friday morning. These teachers have been so wonderful and sweet!

A Cute Maryella Moment



Maryella came into the living room the other day dressed like this. I couldn't help but start laughing. I told her to stay right there and let me go get the camera. Thankfully, she did. She was really being a ham that day! This is pretty typical for Maryella lately, though. She's really getting into "pretend play". She loves dressing up - she even had to take a nap in one of her dress up outfits the other day (just a little dance leotard). She also loves playing with her baby dolls. It's rare that she is without a baby and a bottle. I will hear her walking around saying, "Don't cry, baby, don't cry". It's so sweet!

Kaylin's Kindergarten Awards Day

Today was Kaylin's Awards Day at kindergarten. Each class sang a song and we watched a slide show from their year in kindergarten. It was really cute. I was dissappointed that Kaylin was on the back row ... again. That's one disadvantage to being tall I suppose. Anyway, I got some cute pictures after the show in her classroom.
On stage doing the Chicken Dance (she's just below the "A" in Elementary).

With her friend, Carson


With friends, Asia and Jordan


With her teacher, Ms. Jennings

Dimples!


I just have to share this picture because it shows off both of Maryella's dimples! One is much deeper than the other, so it's hard to get a picture with both. Isn't she precious? I just love this silly sweet pea girl so much!

A Concert Starring Maryella

Maryella is not one to be outdone. When she saw Annlee singing on video, she wanted to be a part of the action as well. So here she is in her debute concert singing "Hello, How Are You" (a song Annlee learned at school), "Raindrops Are Falling on My Head" and "Rain, Rain Go Away."
