A little ride to the pumpkin patch.

End of school activities...

Eliza went to a fantastic preschool this year. We really loved her teachers and the entire experience. Here's a little from her "graduation".

The Friday of Abby's birthday party I went on an all-day field trip to Madison with Andrew's class! We had a great time and learned a lot about our capitol! I was quite entertained with the pictures the kids took...the quantity was astonishing.

Daniel finished our cabinet top! What used to be a big black laminate top that stuck out 12 inches from the cabinet to form a "bar." It also had a big black pad wrapped in vinyl that "finished" the edge. An eyesore for sure. Daniel transformed it into this...
We cut the top off and he put new wood and backerboard on. Then he tiled it and finished some trim to finish off the edges. Didn't he do an awesome job!?
Earlier in the year Andrew earned a good citizenship award. Well, Abby's teacher awarded her one at the end of the year. It was a lot of fun to surprise her at school and go to the assembly.

Our kids had a great first year at their new school. Pretty awesome!
