Preschool Program

Megan is the 3rd child to go through Miss Peggy's preschool. They always do a great Christmas program. Megan loves to sing and perform and she made a beautiful angel.



She is more than excited

Volleyball

Katie made the 9th grade volleyball team. We were all so excited. Over 30 girls tried out for 12 spots. She learned so much and made great improvements throughout the year. They only lost one game in their league and came in 2nd place.

We threw her a little surprise party and Rachael made this amazing sign.

Looks like it was a great day.

Back to School Dinner

I was so inspired by this post from my friend Stephanie (nie nie) that I decided to copy her. She posted this just days before she and her husband were in a horrific plane crash. In honor of her, here is our back to school feast.
We chose this theme for our school year.
Here is our table. Orson could not make it home from work, so we had one placesetting missing.
Our menu consisted of:
Grilled chicken
Green beans
Speghetti squash with marinara


Our table is ready.
Look at these great kids. I am so proud.

Last day of school

School is now out for the summer. We are so excited. It was a weird weather week again this year with lots of storms. Every year our neighbors throw a big bash and the kids have a blast. This year Anna and Megan enjoyed the festivities.



The big finish for the party is always a shaving cream fight. Anna was so excited to be a part of it.



Rachael went to a friends swim party and Katie had some girls over here.




Nathan did not get out of playing at graduation this year. They set up a tent for the orchestra to play under and he ended up sitting of the edge and getting dripped on all night.
