Teddy Bear Picnic

Yesterday was Jacklyn's last day of Preschool, so Addison and I went down to her school and watched her graduation. It was a lot of fun and Addison really enjoyed it. First, the kids sang sons to us and then got their diplomas. Then we had some fun activities like giving your teddy bear a checkup, throwing beanbags and getting a prize, and "going on a bear walk" which was really an obstacle course. The kids all like that one the best. After the graduation, we all went outside and had our teddy bear picnic. We all laid our blankets out on the grass and started eating our lunches. While we were eating, the teachers passed out bear rice crispy treats and punch for everyone. Then it was time to say good-byes. Jacklyn's friend Mackenzie came over and said good-bye. Her and Jacklyn were the only girls in their class. Jacklyn was the only girl out of ten boys in her class until Mackenzie came, so they were best buds. Jacklyn's bus driver was telling me this. I told her Jacklyn was use to being the only girl, because at home she has no sisters and two brothers. Her bus driver thought that was funny and said Jacklyn gets spoiled a lot because she's the only girl. Jacklyn really loved going to school. I think she will miss it, but it won't be too long until summer school starts. All right, I need to go. I hope that everyone has a great Memorial Day weekend!

That's awesome...sounds like you guys had some fun. I'm getting more excited about Jeriah getting older. He likes to go to the park and just play in the rocks/dirt.
Are you guys ever planing on coming down and visiting? I don't think we will be able to do anything "fun" like lagoon or seven peaks until matt is done wtih school. Kinda sucks!

Yea, we were going to go up to Idaho some time this summer. We wanted to know if anyone wanted to go to Seven Peaks or Lagoon, but I guess that's out for now. We're not sure what week we will be going up, but we will let everyone know.
