Lizzy graduated from pre-school this spring!  Grandma Sharon was in town for the graduation. We all had a nice time watching Lizzy and her classmates in the program. They sang songs, recited the national anthem, and counted to the 100. Afterward there was cake and punch - that is the part Sammy seemed to like the best :) I cannot believe that my baby is starting kindergarten in the fall.  

 
Deb and Joey cam for a visit in may. The kiddos had so much fun playing together - especially swimming at Mema's house and running at the splash pad. We also went to Chuckee Cheese's. Lizzy spent a lot of time "teaching" Joey how to play the games and ride the rides.  Sam tended to play best solo.
 
Lizzy has been in a dance class at school for the past two and a half years.  Here are some pictures from the annual "beach dance party." We love going to these as it is an intimate setting for the parent to watch their girls dance. The girls are not intimidated by a stage and they all seem to have a great time. Lizzy loves her dance teacher "Miss Carol" and she will miss her when she leave pre-school and start kindergarten in the fall. We will have to find another dance class, or maybe gymnastics this fall.  
 
The local Home Depot had a carnival. The kiddos had fun building and painting a flower pot with Daddy. They then played some games and looked at animals with Mema and Mommy. At the end we all climbed into a firetruck - although Sammy did not seem too happy about it...
