SUMMER IS ON IT'S WAY

It is finally starting to feel nice outside. The kids and I are ready for school to be done...June 4th can't come quick enough. The kids are spending every free minute outside playing until I make them come in. I think I've devoloped allergies...I'm not liking that one bit!

Last week, Allie had her Kindergarten concert. The kids sang many different songs & did great. It was an adorable concert. My mom was able to come see Miss Allie perform & Allie was delighted to have an audience. Mom & I were able to have coffee on Tuesday morning before I went in to work.

Allie also had her last Daisy meeting last week. The girls each got a canvas bag with their Daisy petals & name on it. Her leader isn't able to continue next year, we were all sad.

The kids had a coin drive at school, they are raising money for Phase 2 of the playground. In 2 weeks the kids raised over $11,700! As their reward, the principal shaved his head and 7 teachers got pies in their faces. The students watched & enjoyed the festivities. It was also PJ Day so it was a fun filled day.

Mandy & I hosted a baby shower for Kim on Saturday. It was fun getting together with my aunts & cousins on both sides of the family. Kim got LOTS of nice gifts. After the shower, we went to Kim & Michael's new house. WOW, it is nice. Allie met a new friend while visiting & apparently the little girl come knocking on Kim & Michael's door on Sunday...she wanted Allie to play.

While Allie & I were at the shower, Jake was at our neighbor's house. They took him to his soccer game, which ended in a tie. Once Scott got off of work, he & Jake had man night & watched movies. They got up early & went golfing on Sunday morning. That afternoon, we had Jake's end of the year Scout picnic/grill out. The boys had a ball playing & playing.

This week brings dance for Allie, 2 make up soccer games for Jake, volunteer in Allie's room, Talent Show practice for both kids, walk a thon at Hansen & volunteer with a fundraiser at Hansen. No big plans for Memorial Day weekend...washing windows, power washing the house & cleaning out the garage top the list.
