Day 2

Day 2 was SO much fun!! We spent the morning on the beach then went back to eat lunch an get naps. We went back out in the afternoon. And then that night we went crab hunting!! I think the adults had more fun than the kids!! We caught a TON!!

Vaction 2011 (Day 1)

This year we went to Galveston. We stayed at Pointe West and we will definitely be going back!! Thanks Shelly for recommending it!! It was VERY nice and really big! Day 1 was a a short day at the beach, because we didn't get there until about 5. But, the girls had a blast in the 3 hours we were out there. Skye wasn't too sure about the water, but she loved the sand buckets and sand. My girls just ran and ran and ran!!

Sweet Skye!

Awards and Last Day of School

Late post, but wanted to post anyway. The last week Dylan was in school they did an award ceremony. I am pleased to say Dylan got DISTINGUISHED A HONOR ROLL!!!!! The "distinguished" part about it is that she never made below a 95 on her report card all year! She also made her goal for her Accelerted Reader program and got to go to the party at the water park. Nate and I couldn't be any prouder of her because she worked very hard all year! We are now onto 2nd grade!

Getting her award.....CONGRATS!!

The last day of the year party was a blast!!!! Landy, Amy, and I worked exceptionally hard on this one! We did a treasure hunt! The kids LOVED IT!!!! We made treasure maps out of paper sacks and even burned the edges to make them look weathered. We had 7 rhyming clues.

1. When you are sick, she'll fix you up quick! (Nurse Stone)

2. When the bell rings, you go here to sing! (Music Room)

3. This is the girl with the reddest hair, get your next clue under her chair! (Dylan)

4. He never means to do any harm, look in the locker of the boy with the broken arm! (Peighton)

5. When you're thirsty you drink H2O, get your next clue you don't have far to go! (water fountain)

6. This is the place you check your points for AR, get your next clue you won't have to look very far! (computer lab)

7. This is the room surrounded by glass, go look for the beans covered in grass! (Teachers lounge)

It was SO MUCH FUN!!! I'll definitely be doing it again next year!
