Soccer

Jack and Katy enjoyed their soccer clinic this summer!  Jack was enrolled in the same clinic last year, but this was a first for Katy.  She was so excited to be playing with her big brother!  They learned some of the basics of soccer and hopefully it will give them a good foundation for their soccer leagues this fall and next spring!

Safety City

Jack had a great week at Safety City, put on by the Waukee Police Department.  This is a special class they host for the incoming Kindergarten students.  They learned lots of great information, such as bus rules, bullying, stop lights, bike safety, etc.  I think Jack had a great time and is all ready to start Kindergarten in the fall!

Katy's Dance Recital

Our little ballerina, Katy, did such a great job at her first dance recital!  It took a little bit of bribing as she has been showing us her stubborn, strong-willed side recently, but she was more than happy to show off her stuff on stage knowing she had a ballerina music/jewelry box waiting for her when she was done!  We were so proud of her and I think her 3-year old class stole the show....they were so cute!  She was all smiles the entire day.  So much fun!

Jack's Last Day of School

Jack had his last day of school today!!  We are so thankful for the optional kindergarten program in Grimes.  Jack had such a great experience.  I can't believe he will be off to kindergarten this fall!

Last day of school!

Katy's Last Day of Preschool

Katy celebrated her last day of preschool today.  She had such a great year at Walnut Hills Preschool and she is already looking forward to going back next year for their 4 year old program!

Garth Brooks Concert!

Jay and I managed to get away for a weekend in Omaha with friends and went to a Garth Brooks concert.  I have not listened to Garth Brooks' music in many, many years, but I was surprised at how well I remembered his music and all the lyrics!  We all had such a great time!!
