End of School






I can't believe that school is already out for the summer! And I can't believe that my baby has graduated from kindergarten!! Where did the time go? The last 2 weeks of school were filled with band concerts, choir concerts, field days and graduations. Whew! K was voted the most improved band geek of the 6th Grade Intermediate Band. I'm not sure if that is a good thing, or a bad thing? Just kidding!! Way to go, K! E loved singing in the Eagle Crest 4th grade choir and ate up the attention at the concerts. S was quite excited on graduation day, but I think it was just because school was over! He and his buddies were adorable in their little red caps. You know, it would be a lot easier on us moms if they didn't play that little graduation tune every time!! It really brings on the tears when they march in like that! It was quite funny watching the girls give their teachers hugs as they got their diplomas, and the boys gave them a very official handshake! I'm tired just typing all of this again! Now on to swim lessons, summer band, honor band practice, soccer clinic, sleep-overs, pool time, horse shows, trips, company (please come see us!!).......

When does school start again?

Last Days of Soccer




Well, the spring soccer season has finally wrapped up -- with some chilly and damp days!! E's first season in inter-league play went well considering the girls were moved up 2 levels. They were used to winning every game on the rec league, though, and weren't very excited about losing half of their games this season! They have all come amazingly far in their soccer skills and it is so much fun to watch them play. They work very hard out there!!!




S and his team did very well this season to thanks to an awesome coach! Unfortunately, the teams split into boys and girls in the fall and the coach will go with his daughter. Bummer!! Now we have to find another good coach!S had so much fun playing and we loved to watch him as he did his little run-hop thing all over the field. Not to mention when it was his turn to kick the ball in he would back up a mile to make sure he got a good running start! Even better was when he would totally miss the ball after all that preparation! Well, on to horse show season!
