Bright & Shiny New!!

My wonder-of-a-husband worked hard this summer (in the searing heat!!) to enclose our patio and make it into our beautiful new classroom.

We managed to finish in just the nick of time...but it was completely worth it. We have all loved our new space.

It is truly perfect.

...and just the right size!! It is going to be a wonderful year!!

Goldilocks & The 3 Bears

Our School Play
The very last month we studied Fairytales. So, on our last day, we performed our very own original version of Goldilocks & The 3 Bears. My mom (lovingly called "Grandma" by all the preschool kids), created the cutest little script for our play and helped bring it all to life!! All our parents came and watched the performance and enjoyed our bear-themed treats that followed!!

One of the best moments was when Hannah (playing Goldilocks' big sister) completely fell out of the playhouse window- right in the middle of the play!! Every play needs just a little bit of spice!!
All in all, it was such a fun way to wrap up our fun and exciting school year!! I am already missing all our preschool kids BIG TIME!!!

Aren't they the ABSOLUTE CUTEST?!!!!

Tis the Season

Just before Summer...we have to squeeze in celebrating all our summer birthdays. It makes for one FABULOUS month!!
Happy Birthday Sofia!!
Sofia was soooooo excited to celebrate her birthday at school!! She loved her picture and frame that I gave her....but even more, she loved that (since I experimented printing it at home) the black on her hair would rub off and turn this bright blue. I think she thought having blue hair was the coolest thing!!

So Cute!!!

It was a fun day!!!

Birthdays...

Happy Birthday Jaxon!!!
Since Jaxon is a summer birthday, we got to celebrate him during the month of May!! He was probably just a little confused that he didn't have any presents waiting at home when he came back from school that day!! But he had a BLAST having his own special day at preschool!!

These pictures are just soooo Jaxon, they make me chuckle!! He's such a fun kid!!

Happy Birthday Jax!!

Birthdays!!!

Happy Birthday Hannah!!!
This is my little Hannah!! What a fun day she had celebrating....Her!!!

By the time we were finished, EVERYONE was some shade of blue!! Serves me right for buying Sponge Bob cupcakes!! But they still loved them!!

And MORE Birthdays!!

Happy Birthday Hayden!!
His mom let him choose his birthday treat...and what else would he choose but Cheetos and Fudgesicles!! What a cutie!!! He always makes me laugh!!
There's the fun little frame I made him. He loved it!!

CHEESE!!!

Happy Earth Day
(tree planting)
The kids (and I) looked forward to this all week long. It was the perfect way to bring the book to life, and celebrate the importance of Earth Day. My husband came home to help. The kids all jumped in to help put in the tree,

surround it with good soil,

(and get a little dirty in the process)

give it plenty of water,

and then smile at their accomplishment!!

Even now, the kids will ask how "their" tree is doing. I love it!!!
