First days of Summer

It pretty much rained the first two weeks of summer but despite the rain we managed to stay fairly busy. 

Playing John Deere-opoly, which the kids got as an end of school year present from Aunt Shirley. 

Eli went shopping at Harbor Freight and used his gift card on some new toys. 

Emory found a three legged chicken. 

The kids picked out new bathroom stuff for their bathroom. It took a bit, but they reached an agreement on blue and white. 

We made the trek out to Mason and picked up Emory's new lamb Macadamia Nut (Mac) and Cason's new goat Sasquatch Pinto II (Squatchy).

Pre-K Graduation & Academic Awards

Thursday after school ended we attended Eli's Pre-K graduation and the Academic Awards Ceremony. 

Eli received his "diploma" from Mrs. V and he was so proud of it. 

Emory and Cason each received academic awards this year. Emory for earning all A's and Cason for earning all A's and no more than two B's this year. 

Despite the craziness that was this school year, from COVID, to hurricanes, to 7 inches of snow, to the icepocalypse, the kids all had a great year, which I am very thankful for!

Last Day of School

School's out for SUMMER!!!

The last day of school was May 18th and was a half day field day. 

Loads and loads of fun were had!  

 

A Few May Happening's

May was a busy month, so much so I completely forgot to post anything. Here is a little recap of some things that happened in May. 

Cason used some birthday money to purchase a dump wagon, Eli was excited with his purchase too. 

A competitive game of Lava Monster at school resulted in Cason loosing a tooth. Thankfully is was due to come out and new tooth is already coming in. 

Cason's class hatched baby chicks and ducks as part of their science lesson on birds. These two chicks came to live with us. 

Eli just hanging out at soccer practice. 

Cason finished up soccer the end of May. His team the Blue Cyclones had a great season! 

Meet Tater, Emory's new steer. We went and picked him up this month too!
