Field Day!

The last week of school was lots of fun - the kids at Iron Springs Elementary got to have field day and it was a blast. I love living next to the school. We were able to go and watch Savannah participate in the events that she signed up for. She did really well at the frisbee throw. She and another girl in her class tied for third place.



Savannah did the cross country run and made it in last place :) I guess running isn't her thing. She told me they wouldn't let her be on the relay team because she didn't run fast enough. My favorite event to watch was the tug-of-war. If you look at the picture closely you can see the face Savannah is making. This was right before her team lost. They did best of 3 and her team won the first two! I can't wait to volunteer for field day next year.

Preschool Grad!



I know I said I would post something everyday, but obviously I lied. This is Ava at her preschool graduation. I can't believe she is going to Kindergarten, that makes me a little sad. She loves Mrs. Woolsey and will miss her. She gets to go to summer school though, so she has a few more months with her.

We love you Ava! Don't grow up so fast!

Talent Show and Arts night

A couple of weeks ago they had a talent show at Iron Springs that Savannah signed up for. To my surprise she signed up to sing. She sang "I can sing a rainbow" and I played the piano for her. She was very excited and when we went to rehearsal the day before she got up on the stage with all the confidence in the world. I thought, wow, she is a natural born entertainer. Talent night came and when she saw that there were actually people there watching she did get a little bit nervous and told me "I don't think I want to do this." But I told her since she roped me into playing the piano for her then she had to do it. She did a good job, she didn't sing very loud, probably cuz she was scared, but I am very proud that she did it anyway and I hope she will continue to do things that will increase her talents and share them with other people.

I tried to upload a video on blogger, but it was taking all day and all night (hence the reason I didn't post all weekend), maybe my vid was too long . . . so if you want to watch Savannah at her talent show click on the link and it should take you there.
This is a picture of Savannah in front of her art projects that she did at school.

What's so funny?

I have not been posting much on my blog lately because we have had so much going on, and I have so many things to post (for documentation sake). I am going to try and post one thing a day.

This is a video that is about a month old. It is of Leah laughing. We let her have a cookie and she thought that is was great! I thought it was pretty cute.


She has been such a happy baby and we have really had a fun year with her. I can't believe she will be a year old next month!
