Landon and his "High Five" award from school. He learned 5 important facts about himself including address and phone number.
Claire looking "Australian". Her entire school has International week and each grade takes on different countries. She also made a diorama of a Dingo's habitat.
Claire receiving her academic award. All A's all year! Her class also voted her "best all-around friend"...so sweet!
Finally the school year ends! We had 8 extra days due to snow days, but that didn't stop the fun! On Landon's last day, the kids had a water day and received awards. Along with the two pictured, Landon also received a sight word award. Landon loved preschool and his classmates. He adored his teacher, and in fact, told her he wished she could move with us and be his Kindergarten teacher!
Claire's last days were filled with International Week, Fun and Field Day and Awards. Landon and I helped with field day...all day...in 90+degree heat. It was HOT, but the kids had a blast! And I know I've mentioned it before, but this is no normal field day. We are talking all out games and hair painting, a DJ and water sports. Claire also received awards as mentioned above, and the teacher noted to me afterwards that Claire will be missed at CPE. Everyone knows her and loves her there! That's saying a lot coming from the largest Elementary in Arkansas!
Since school has ended we've been busy with dance, gymnastics, swimming and playing. Geoff is gone for two weeks, and soon Landon will head to Kansas for a few days while Claire and I head to Dallas for national dance competition. I'm trying to keep us busy so we aren't constantly thinking of what looms in the near future. Dreading packing and moving, but the result will be joyful! I truly can't wait to be back in KS closer to my (growing!) family, old friends and to start a new beginning.
