End of School Year

Do you ever get stuck?  I started this post a few weeks ago, but I decided I wanted to post video clips from our new-ish camera.  Then I got stuck.  This should. not. be. so. hard!  I finally got one clip to load, but I couldn't get the other two.  Still not sure why, but I'm ready to post and move on with my life!  By the way, I got the clip to load, but I can't move it to the appropriate spot in the post.  Lame.  Either it's me, or it's the camera, or it's Blogger.  Maybe all three. . .

Anyway, it's time to do some catching up.  I kind-of miss my Ten for Tuesday days when I was on top of things, and occasionally had something other than travelogue pics to share.  But, time seems to be slipping through my fingers lately.  I'm still kind-of trying to get my head above water after the craziness of May and June.  We had a ton of fun things to keep us busy, but I'm so glad it's all over and it's finally summer!

Here are some fun things we did at the end of the school year:

The Pilgrims and the Indians

Blake is at the far right.

Blake had his preschool graduation.  These programs are so fun to watch.  Blake especially loved singing about peanut butter in his underwear and acting like a spider who scared Miss Muffet away.  Blake loved his teacher and all his little preschool friends this year.  We're both sad to see preschool end!

Blake loved his teacher Miss Joanie.

Michael and Ty joined the running club this year (with only slight twisting of the arms!). At the end of the year they got to run in a one-mile race.  I went to cheer them on.

Michael's 2nd grade program was filled with patriotic songs.  They must have worked hard to learn all the words to those songs.  I was proud of Michael (who is normally very shy at these events) because he sang all of the words and did all the actions.

Ty got to build an animal habitat.  He chose to make a habitat for snakes.  You can tell he was mighty proud of his work!

Ty also had a fun program and graduated from kindergarten.  He loved his teacher Mrs. Robbins and is excited to be able to go to school all day next year.
