End of the Year

So, all the cute titles I thought of for this post aren't quite true. School's Out for the Summer - well, not yet. No More Teachers, No More Books - again, not true for my children. Result? A boring blog title.

Andrew and I are still in school until next Wednesday, but his kindergarten is wrapping up lots of things for the year. One activity they always do is a "letter people parade". Each child can choose their favorite letter and dress up. Andrew wanted to be "A", so he's wearing an apron, antlers, arrow and apple and has a red nose and hankie (AAACHOO!)
Today was Aidan's preschool graduation. He has adored preschool and is not ready to move on. He even cried when he had to hug his teacher goodbye. (Ironically, his teacher is a close friend of mine, so it's not as though he'll never see her again) Here he is during the show they put on:
Here is Aidan and two of his partners in crime:
And, of course, receiving his diploma:Here's a video of him singing one of my favorite preschool songs during the performance:



And of course, no blog post would be complete without a picture of Sophie. She is a stubborn little thing with quite a temper. She'll be able to hold her own with the boys!
We are so excited about summer vacation! We aren't planning to go anywhere in particular, but we have zoo and pool passes, as well as our YMCA membership for rainy day pool outings. Both boys will be spending a week at daycamp while I'm at HGS. Andrew will be at baseball camp and Aidan at an arts camp. Andrew's also going to attend an afternoon science camp one week at the Falls of the Ohio, and Aidan has his big play in July. We've got tickets to see a play and tickets to a Louisville Bats game, and we also have a date planned for Holiday World. All in all, it's shaping up pretty well!

Tonight Dad tilled up our garden. Aidan, Sophie and I went shopping for plants while Andrew was in TKD. I'll take some planting pictures and get them up soon. We're also headed to the Strawberry Festival tomorrow and Sophie has an awfully cute strawberry dress! Stay tuned!
