Weekend Project



Here is our accomplishment this weekend. Alex was a big help and is very excited because we got fish to go in the pond (we'll see how long those last).
We also had fun at the park on a playdate. She got to see lots of animals, the horses being her favorite. We tried a letterboxing search, but we couldnt find it.
Alex finally lost her loose tooth. That one took forever. So now she has one on either side of her 2 middle teeth missing.
Since we weren't planning a trip for Memorial weekend, I pricelined a local hotel for one night so Alex could have some fun. She LOVES hotels and we had fun jumping on the bed and swimming. Alex has also got to go fishing twice with Dad. Its been a nice week.

Graduation





I can't believe it-Alex's last day of preschool was last week. Where did the time go! She's had the same wonderful teacher for 2 years and we'll miss her. She gave us such a sweet card about how Alex always has a spring in her step and a song in her heart. Alex handled the last day really well and is just very excited about kindergarten. No one from her class is going to her school, but there is a boy from the class next door so she'll know someone there. She's made some really great friends, including the boy she thinks she's going to marry (boy is that scary hearing your 5 year old say that!)The year just went by so fast. I didn't cry, but it was close.
She also had her Mini Meet for gymnastics. She did well but I think the poor kid is cursed with my coordination. At least she has fun!

Animals





Grant's Farm is open for the season-Yeah!! This year is the Zoo's 100 birthday. So in honor of their Zootenial, Alex had to have a special dress to wear to Zoo Friends Day. She was a big hit.

Playdates





Alex has so much fun with her friends. Going to the Magic House is always a blast and a new favorite activity is letterboxing. Its so much fun to go on a "treasure hunt" in many of our wonderful parks.
