Photo Dump- End of school year

I have been consumed with dr's visits, work, and the end of the school year- such a busy time!  I haven't been the best about updating with pictures of the kids' activities...so here we go...

When I went to the Autism One conference, I received this text picture from Pete- "This is how I just found Peyton."  Ha!

actually wanting to ride his bike!

 Paige had her fairy tale ball at school- super cute!  She wanted to be Sleepy from seven dwarfs.  They had a choreographed dance and a reception with their friends.  Love Kindergarten!

 Hunter's last soccer game went well for the team- and it was a winning season!  Hunter didn't choose to play the last game, but he did participate in cheering his friends on and the award ceremony.

Yay Hunter!  Look at all those sweet parents cheering him on.

Such a great group of kids (and parents!)

 Paige participated in her first dance class this year.  When Hunter started his program downtown, I needed to find an after school activity for Paige.  I called the dance studio where her friend was taking class, and in our favor, one little girl had dropped out, so Paige took her spot!  She only had 5 months of practice in comparison to 9 months like the other girls, but she performed so well and LOVED tap.

Miss Emily received a letter from Jimney Cricket for the girls- and they each had a good luck letter from the fairies at the Disney Castle!

After the Oklahoma tornadoes, we were a little apprehensive about the storms the next day.  I decided to pick Paige up early from school just in case they went into lock-down if the storms got really bad.  So we cleared out the closet under the stairs, watched a movie to get our minds off of the storm, and waited it out...and then did the most logical thing- jump in those huge puddles!  

 

We went to the duck pond park with our sweet friends Ally and Garrett one afternoon- it was a super fun, busy time until we were just about to leave from feeding the ducks and turtles...and Paige slipped in the water!  I think she was more surprised then scared, but the crocodile tears started and we headed home to jump in the shower.  Hunter has had the best time telling people; when he introduces Paige, he says, "This is my sister, Paige.  When we went to the duck pond, she fell in."  :)

 

Maybe a little too close....



Daddy's birthday!! He came home early from work and we opened presents first, then had cake BEFORE dinner!  I know, we get crazy over here.  I'm sure daddy enjoyed his gluten free, dairy free cake. :)

Daddy had mentioned bowling for his birthday, so we planned a fun hour at the alley...although it might not have been fun for all involved...

Peyton wanted to throw the balls and take a turn every turn- so hard to understand the waiting game at 2!

Hunter loved the bowling...until he saw the bright lights and video games down the way.  He bowled till the 5th frame and then would not leave those stimulating lights.  We tried!

 Last days of school!  Paige was so excited to be able to "graduate."  She told me, "Mommy, as soon as I walked out of the door (on the last day), I was a first grader!"

Such a fun, crazy busy several weeks.  So happy to have all of my little ones home with me...time to start "mommy summer school!"
