Finally Updated!

You probably think I have been "sleeping" on the job. Well, I am now out of school and have updated my blog! Hopefully, I can keep it up!!

Last Day of Kindergarten & Award's Day

Brant's last day of Kindergarten was also his award's day. It was a little sad to think that he was graduating from kindergarten and heading to 1st grade in the fall. Brant received 3 awards - the AR reading award, the Silly Bandz award (he was the proudest of this award), and the Good Friend award. The last award really touched my heart. I was told by several people what a good heart Brant has towards a certain little boy. This child has some handicaps, and Brant took it upon himself to help this child. That was his "job" each day. This was a very special award and I was so proud of him. The other award, The Silly Bandz award, is funny, because if you know Brant you would know about his obsession for Silly Bandz. We have so many I could not even begin to tell you how many packs he, or I, or grandparents have purchased. He even has them sorted for ones he could trade and ones to keep. I was also super proud of the AR award. I hope this love for reading will continue. Brant has had a super year and look forward to next year's adventures!

Tumbling

Brylee also took through her daycare gymnastics. I was surprised to see an invitation to get to preview what Brylee had learned and she would receive a medal. We loaded up with Brylee's buddy and headed to Starkville. I was shocked at what she was doing. She was doing the bars, the balance beam, and more. She really did good. At the end, she got presented a medal like the real gymnast do. It was so cute! I was so impressed that I signed her up to take this summer for a few classes.

Recital Time!

Brylee has been taking dance all year. It finally was time for the recital. She was so excited getting ready for the recital. I think she was more excited about getting to wear make-up, to be totally honest. She got to get dressed with her best buddy, too! She loved being on stage! I was super proud of her. She knew her dances really well. Her preschool class kept the audience totally entertained. She was also anxious to get her surprises! We promised her a surprise if she did well. She got Tinker Bell earrings from us, flowers from Nana & Grandaddy, & more earrings from Mim & Pop!

Field Trip to the CHOM!

I took off and went with Brant's Kindergarten class to the Children's Hands-on Museum. The kids had so much fun! They loved everything, especially dressing up in Grandma's Attic. Afterwards, we had a picnic by the river. It was worth taking a day off!

Brylee's Art Show & Trike-a-Thon

Brylee's preschool always has an annual art show. Parents are invited to view their child's art work. They also have Jumpers for the kids. Thankfully, I was able to go to her art show for a little while. I got to look at her work for a little while, but then she was on a mission to get the Jumpers. Brylee also participated in the St. Jude's Trike-a-thon at her preschool. She even made it on the WCBI news. I didn't get to go to that one, but thankfully, my sweet hubby did. Brant did it every year in preschool. I am so glad that Brylee can participate in this worthy cause!
