End of the school year programs

Since school has been out for almost a month now, I figured I better get to writing about the kids' end of the year programs. They all seemed to enjoy school and had excellent report cards. We are very proud of each one of our kids. Youngest to oldest:

Daniel was in preschool this year and liked it most of the time. He had his days when he didn't want to go and threw temper tantrums. I usually didn't push it. It was his last year at home with me and I was glad to keep him home from time to time.  I really didn't want to sign Daniel up for preschool in the first place. Scott thought it would be good for him since he has a late birthday and missed the cut off for Kindergarten. When he threw these temper tantrums it usually meant he was extra tired or fighting something so it was best to keep him home anyway. Daniel played Little Kickers Soccer in the Fall.

They had a cute preschool graduation held at the Library outdoor stage. His teacher, Miss Patti, has two sessions and they combined them for the graduation.

Patiently waiting for the program to start.

All the kids had a part or (several) I love how Daniel

is looking down at his rectangle shape.

Posing with friends Mackell and Jackson. They live around

the corner, so Daniel gets to see them often.

Jacob, (4th grade) posing with Mrs. Hulet. She had nothing

but praises to sing about him. He has a knack for 

helping other kids with their work. With a stellar 

report card of all "E's" we are very proud of him too.
Jacob played Flag Football, Basketball, and now
Baseball.

Ryan (6th grade) with Miss Parrish. Ryan 

is sooooo smart and a math wiz. All E's with major 

subjects. A bit rebellious, Ryan just needs to work on 

in class group work (cooperating) and turning things in:) 

We're confident he will do great in 7th grade next year!

and now Baseball.

Laura (8th grade) in her end of the year orchestra

concert. She loves the violin. She's passionate about it 

and is doing great with her private lessons too. 

Laura had a great year with Drama, music, 

and academics.  4.0 :)
Laura played Fall Soccer, Basketball, and now
Softball and Swim Team.

Heather (10th grade) For as shy as Heather is she 

was involved in concert band, pep band, and a wildlife 

and nature photography club. Making friends in all 

three and being "forced" to go to football and basketball

games with pep band, she has enjoyed lots of friends

and being involved. 4.0 also. Heather has aged
out of City Sports, but would love to play
Soccer and Basketball.
