Spring Concert

Kadee was student of the month for March.  This is the 2nd time this year she has earned the award.  This time it was for working hard and making a positive effort in school. 

This past Tuesday Kinlee asked her dad to bring Kilo in for show and teach.  This was the first time all year the kids got to pick what their show and teach would be, so she was very excited to tell about her new dog.  Kilo was very well behaved and Kinlee enjoyed telling her class all about our puppies, Kilo & Maggie.  We were too worried about Maggie jumping on the kids to bring her for show and teach, but her and Kilo are starting an obedience school this month so hopefully they can help us teach her not to jump.

  

This year's theme for the spring choir concert was through the seasons. The kids sang their favorite songs from the school year.  They started with Fall and went through each holiday and season until they got to the finale.  They also did some dances in the audience (YMCA, Cotton eyed Joe, etc.).  The kids did so great and I am always so impressed with how good they sound.  Matthew and Berklee sat together and were so stinkin' cute.  Matthew kept taking care of her and I caught this precious moment of him kissing her on the cheek.

Thursday Matthew had his preschool field trip to the dinosaur museum.  I couldn't make it because of my crazy schedule at the school right now, but he had a great time and lucky for me, my friend Sandy took a bunch of cute pictures.  His favorite thing was the great big dinosaur bones and he couldn't stop talking about how the dinosaurs would eat us if they were still alive today.  

  Friday we took a day trip to the zoo and to see grandma and grandpa Curtis.  The weather at the zoo was perfect and the kids had so much fun looking at all the animals and riding the carousel.  Matthews favorite animals were the spider monkeys and their babies, Kinlee loved the elephants, Connor loved the rhino, and Kadee loved the seals.  Rory & I loved the ice cream twist cone.  Saturday I volunteered at the Children's Justice Center Carnival.  Connor thinks he is too old for all that kid stuff, so he went to Landon's and the younger 3 came with me (plus Jocelyn, Ashlee's daughter).  There were several booths and bounce houses.  So while I worked the food booth, the kids had a blast going to all the booths to win prizes and jumping on the bounce houses.  It felt so good to serve and the kids had fun, so it was a double bonus day for me.
