Summer is off to a bang!

Summer is off to a bang!  School is out, Ellie has the first broken bone in the family, we are up in snowbird on our annual trip, and I finally made it to the Cheesecake Factory!

Caleb had his end of the year preschool program this week.  After years of teaching preschool and laughing at the "class clown" in the performance, my kid was the "clown".  Not so funny when it is your kid!  He poked the eye of the kid to his left, and pretend chok
ed the kid to his right.  Paul and I sat in the back shaking our heads NO to him.  He did sing though.  I talked to him about that before he left.  Next time
 we will talk about personal space.  We do love that kid!  He does bring lots of joy to our life, most the time!


Kid to the right choked, kid to left blind

Ellie also broke her arm this week on the monkey bars.  That girl has the biggest pain tolerance ever!  She cried for a bit, then was done.  Slept through the night and went to her last day of kindergarten with a broken arm!  I could see in her eyes that she was in pain, so for my piece of mind I took her to the doctor after school.  It was broken and she picked out a cute pink cast to match all her pink cloths!  She has yet to c
omplain or let it stop her from anything.  And for those of you who don't know, as I didn't, cast are now waterproof so she can even swim!

We have been enjoying a fun few days up at snowbird.  I
t has been so nice to sit and relax and enjoy the kids.  We've spent a lot of time at the pool, which the kids love!

Too funny about your son. I think working at Challenger only helped to prepare us for our own kids. Allie is the same way. She starts preschool in the fall and I am just crossing my fingers and saying to myself, "Please, oh please...don't be the one kid the teachers hope will be absent each time!" :)
