Kindergarten Graduation

Anna and Mrs. Chambers

Waiting in line to get her diploma.

After the program Jeff and I took Anna out for frozen yogurt. She was pleased as punch to have us all to her self.

Best moment of the graduation: Watching eighty-five kindergartners sing and sign Toy Story's "You've Got a Friend in Me." Adorable.

Worst moment of the graduation: Watching eighty-five kindergartners sing Miley Cyrus' "Party in the USA." What the?! 

Slip N' Slide

Summer seems to have shown up extra early this year. It's already humid and in the 90's. I'm not too happy about it. Anna and Isaac, on the other hand, are thrilled that it's hot enough pull on swimsuits and use the water toys.

I was unsure of what Ben and Sam would think of the slip n' slide. Ben was delighted and Sam, cautious. It was really fun to watch them. Despite the heat, I am looking forward to getting out with the kids this summer. The twins were still so little last year that we didn't do a whole lot.

The little boys' clothes came off pretty quick.

Just getting a little drink.

I love how everyone is doing their own thing in this picture. Everyone has such different personalities, but they (mostly) play so well together. I guess that's sort of the point of families, isn't it. Different people, different traits, different needs. But thank goodness we have each other. It makes the experience so rich.
