Field Day

The kids had a blast at Field Day.  There were some new games and many of the old favorites like tug-of-war.

  A good time was had by all.

Reed's kindergarten graduation was so sweet. 

We are so blessed to have this little guy.

Mrs. Z was the best kindergarten teacher we could have asked for.

Reed wanted to go to a "fancy" restaurant so he chose Fazoli's.  Ha ha.

Cate's teacher took Kimberly around a couple of laps.

Cate ran for 45 minutes straight.

Kimberly has fun, too!

Sweet sisters.  Kimberly helped everyone stay cool.

Reed ran hard.

Love that smile.

Cardinal Chase is a fundraiser fun run with an auction and lots of activities.  The kids all had a great time, ate special treats, dunked teachers and wore themselves out.

Cate's Leprechaun Trap

I have spent WAY too much time on this homework assignment. Cate did decorate the box. But I spent more time than I should have coming up with a way to trap the little green guy. (Note: Plo Koon the Jedi Master in the picture is just there to show you how the Leprechaun will enter the box.) Can I go to Kindergarten again? It's kind of fun.

Cate is the Star this week.

Cate is the star this week in her kindergarten class. She gets to bring special toys and pictures to class, tell about her family and things she likes. Today Wes, Reed and I got to read to her class. We read a Bird Book that Reed got from Granny and Papaw. It has bird sounds that go with the birds. Then we made bird feeders. It was a lot of fun. I forgot to take my camera. :-( The kids loved the Cardinal the most. That's the school mascot.

Our little shepherd boy...

Reed was a shepherd in his school play. They were adorable.



Reed is the one behind the green balloon.



Santa and Mrs. Claus dropped by after the play to see what the kids wanted for Christmas.

Happy Thanksgiving

Cate's First Field Trip

Cate had her first field trip to the zoo. Reed and I got to go, too. We had fun. I was really impressed with how easy it was to handle the kids. They had it organized so well that it hardly seemed like a whole kindergarten was there. Here are some pics.


Cate's walking on the ropes.

This goat got the royal treatment.


The end.

Reed Goes to Preschool

Reed started school with the tradition of stopping by Dunkin' Donuts for a sugary treat. They are so nice there. When the manager heard me say Reed was starting preschool he wouldn't take any money for the donuts.





He walked right in like he had been doing this all his life. It helped that he went with me last year when I dropped off Cate.

























He hardly noticed when I said goodbye. The teacher said he did great. Reed had missed his first day of school because he had a fever but Ms. Julie said he never missed a beat. We love you Reed and we're so proud of you.
