This year was Mason's last year in Preschool!!  *tear*  My kids are growing up too fast!  Mason THRIVED this year in preschool!  I was a little bit nervous for him at the begining of the year because his first year he was in with Ronan and seemed to parrot his older brother.  I wasn't sure how being on his own would be for him.  But as usual, my guy amazes me!  Mason flourished and came out of his little shell so much this year!  He was a completely different kid all year.  His participation was through the roof, singing, dancing, socializing, artistic, academic!  I was floored!  He is quite the popular kid as well!  I love it!!  At the end of each year they do a big production at the Abby Arts Center.  The preschool, Creative Edge School of Arts is also a drama, dance and music school.  I was so nervous for Mason being up on that big stage without his big brother to hold his hand like last year.  But he came out on stage and performed like a star!  I wanted to cry I was so proud of him!!!!

I can't believe that the school year is coming to an end!  It has been so much fun watching Ronan go through Kindergarten and seeing all the changes that he has gone through!  I love it!!  But as usual, it also makes my heart ache!  He is getting so grown up and independent.  He was pretty excited for sports day and of course did a great job at each station!!

I had way too much fun with the theme for Summer's 2nd!  I struggled at first deciding what I was going to do for her, but then one morning for breakfast we were having a yummy fruit smoothie.  She came upstairs with a small tea cup from her kitchen set and wanted me to serve her smoothie in that.  She sat there with this tiny cup taking small sips and *poof* the idea came to me!!  I have seen the idea done before but never thought of it for her 2nd until that moment.  SO CUTE!!  Everything was miniature and so much fun!!  It turned out really great!  Eeeeeeeek!

The end of the season!  This season went by REALLY fast!  About half of Ronan's games were rained out unfortunately.  But what can you do??  The team had a small get-together at the field where they were given their medals and also their portraits and team photos.  They also had some yummy treats and fun times at the playground.  It was a great season! 

This year the city revamped the spray park at Mill Lake.  The old one was decent, but I guess it was time for an up grade.  This new one is pretty cute and the spray is a little more tame, I guess.  We visited it a couple time this summer.  The kids are usually off and on about spray parks.  Sometimes it's the best time they've had, others...not so much.
