Blake wrapped up his elementary career. It went by so fast. The 5th graders had a special carnival day to celebrate their completion of elementary school. There was also a 5th grade promotion ceremony. It started at 8:30am and Blake lectured me before school on how I needed to get…
Crew went ahead and graduated from Kindergarten. There wasn’t a school-sponsored graduation, so some of the moms put together an after school graduation ceremony. This was the only year that Blake and Crew will be at the same school together. Kindergarten started later in the morning than the rest of…
Blake and Nash had a piano recital. Blake did his 5th grade “wax museum” report on John Adams. Finn wrapped up preschool by watching a caterpillar transform into a butterfly. I got to join him for a special Mother’s Day breakfast. And then go straight to watch Crew’s kindergarten performance….
Sometimes Finn is sly enough to sneak his nie-night into Target. When you’re the baby, you get away with a lot. It’s a sad day when Finn’s beloved stuffed animal has to be washed. He stands on a stool next to the washing machine and watches it spin. I took…

We kicked off December with Blake’s birthday and our sweet old neighbor girls brought him a gift. He had a backyard movie night birthday party with a bunch of friends. I helped in the kindergarten STEM lab a few times a month. There were lots of high-tech activities to…
Crew got to dress up like a reindeer for his kindergarten holiday production. Looking through these photos makes me laugh every time. The too-small shirt and the sock tail dragging down his pants. It’s all too good. Crew’s performance was quite entertaining as well. He made sure to pull some…
Here are a few things that happened in October, according to my phone. Crew settled right in to the kindergarten routine and he loved seeing so many friends from church at school. Sometimes we had picnics on early-out Wednesdays. Finn and I walked over to pick him up every day…
