School year pictures

On the last day of school my teachers gave us the coolest present...a CD of all the pictures that had been taken throughout the whole school year....almost 300 pictures!  I have included a small sample of them in this posting....so much fun!  The pictures go in order of the school year.  You can see how much I have grown (and how much longer my hair has grown)!

Here is my class when we first started last fall!

Here I am doing a pumpkin art project!  Notice my name tag...it was early in the school year and the teachers were trying to learn all our names!

Henry brought his dog for show and tell on leader day...really cool!

We had firemen come to school and teach us all about fire safety...

I loved doing art projects at school...I brought home lots of great art!

It was "bring your teddy bear to school" day!

Here I am playing with the boys...it was around Christmas time.

Mommy came to school and read "Elf on the Shelf" to my class and talked about our Elf on the Shelf tradition.

Here we are on my leader day.  Ethan is pulling out a question stick to ask me. I brought Thomas and Julie to leader day!

Leader day!

Here I am doing the weather stick on leader day!

Look at me in my hat and sunglasses...so cool!

Baby, Baby, Baby...ohh!

You will NEVER believe it???  Daddy just got us tickets to the Justin Bieber concert in October!  I am SO EXCITED!  Now we just need to get his new CD when it comes out next month to memorize all his songs so I can sing them all with him.  I wonder if I will be his youngest fan their?  Woohoo!

Happy Memorial Day!

I hope everyone had a wonderful and relaxing Memorial Day weekend!  We had so much fun this weekend!

Unfortunately, daddy was really sick today.  He had a fever all day and a really bad tummy ache.  He had to rest because he travels for work tomorrow...hope you are better soon daddy!

Mommy and I went to Deanna Rose Farm today to play and check out the animals.  We went this morning before it was too crowded and hot and we had a BLAST!

Here we are having breakfast and rocking in the shade!
 I am feeding the baby goats. We first went into the pen, but they were hungry and attacked us!  One ate my shoe, they all jumped up on use and even tried to eat my shirt.  Needless to say, we left the pen and fed them from outside!!
 We made an art and craft project together in the school house. It was fun and a cool activity to do (the school house has air conditioning)!
 We played on the swings and then on the playground!
 Here is my finished artwork...a frame for daddy!
Love,

Memorial Day BBQ with friends!

We had a great time last night at Miss Michelle and Mr. Chris's Memorial Day party!  All mommy's best friends and their families (even all the kids) were there and we had a BLAST!  We played on the slip 'n slide, in a pool and even danced the night away!  It was so much fun!  Mommy especially loved seeing all the kids play together...it was really neat!  I can't wait until we have another fun party with EVERYONE!

Here I am waiting to go play in the water!
