Last day of being a Kindergartener....
......Of third grade!
Mmmmmm.....
ICE CREAM PARTY!
Alex's class
New York Time Best Seller!!!!
WOW! Where do I begin about the last couple of days.....have been extremely hectic! I feel like I have been non-stop....haven't had a chance to breathe. Yesterday, Mikey and I ran around doing errands and then we went to Alex's play. It was sooooo cute. Alex was the narrator. It was just there class, and they made a really big deal about it. The kids ushered their parents in and seated them. They also read poems they did throughout the year. Then Alex's teacher handed out "special" awards. It was cute, it was based on each person's personality. Alex's was, "New York Times Best Seller List", since she has a PASSION for reading and writing. Her reading level is at a 5.5 level which is 5th grade. I am sooo proud of her. She did a great job! I am reall happy Alex got the teacher she got, she was super nice and you can tell her passion for teaching! After it was done I took the kids to the pool again. Man, are they little fish! They loved to swim and go off the slides! Mikey especially. He is sooo funny! That wore them out like crazy! So they passed out quickly after their baths.
Today was the last day of school for the girls. They were soo excited to get their yearbooks and have everyone sign them! I HAVE A THIRD GRADER AND A FIRST GRADER! Can you tell I am a little excited?!?!?! I am still in shock on how fast this life is going! Lol. Today was another running around day for me. I went to go get stuff for the ice cream party my friend and I gave the kids for the end of the year treat! Then I got one of Mikes Father's Day gift. I got him a decorative stein. Its what the German use to drink beer out of. The one I got him is really for decoration. Mike really likes them and wants to start collecting.The master painter was there and he painted on it Mike's name. Pretty cool. Then after I picked the kids up we went to my neighbors for the ice cream party. It was sooo cute. The kids had a blast. They got their bathing suits on and played in the water and just had a good time. I hope the kids dont get a tummy ache...the girls had ice cream and cake at school too. lol Oh well, it's only one day, I keep telling myself. Hee hee. I am a little disappointed however, that Jackie didn't have a Kindergarten "graduation". I mean she doesn't need one, but Alex got one and I thought it was cute. I cant complain to much, at least she got a Pre-K one.
Mike, worked on the lawn and put our outdoor table up. It's starting to look better out there. I cant wait to start having BBQ'S and such. Now my loving hubby is putting together the end table. He also came in and swept and he is gonna vacuum later. Such a sweetie!
Well that's my couple of days. Tomorrow we have two BBQ's to go to and Sunday...don't know yet! Could be anything...lol Hope everyone had a great week!
I posted pics of the play and of the ice cream party! I know there is alot and believe me.....there r sooo many more! lol

Great to see photos of "graduation" and of the tattoos (and to see that the tattoos had worn off by the fun party!) - how nice for them to have the party to remember. Still hoping to see some photos of you , Cathy!
Tell Alex that I remember how fun it was to see movies from books I'd read - and how hard to keep quiet in the theater. Of course, back then, we didn't have DVDs at home when we could talk.
Is the pool on base? Or? Glad to hear that they are still swimming.
Are folks watching FIFA SOCCER WORLD CUP? We don't know anything about soccer, but have a good friend who works for ESPN and is over in South Africa now. So I got a rule book from the library, and will watch the Germany game this week. The USA game was exciting (if a 1-1 score can be called exciting!).
Lots of love to all,
Grandma Patricia
