School is Out!

Quick blog marathon before bed....

The kids' preschool got out last week and we are all pretty sad about it. They had class parties to say goodbye to the school year and for everyone to say goodbye to one another. Both Elise and Owen have really loved this preschool and we are really sad that we won't be attending their next year. As I tried to get the kids into preschool in Katy, I was told it is easier to get them into college and that parents are at the doors at 4 a.m. on enrollment day! Crazy, but lucky us, we were able to find a place that will work for us and we are very excited to try it out next year.

Owen's party was first, but as every other kid was at the table chowing down on cookies and cupcakes, our Owen was napping away. He is so cute. I am glad that my 2 1/2 year old still needs a nap every day. Ellie was not so kind at that age so I am enjoying the fact that he still needs it.

After being trampled awake by his little sister, Owen took over her stroller and rolled out of his classroom in style-- legs crossed, laying back and chomping down on a chocolate chip cookie.

I am especially sad for Elise to leave the school because she has so many cute friends at school that she always talks about along with teachers that she adores. I am grateful that she had such a good year. Here she is digging into an ice cream sundae.

Here is Ellie showing us something she found.
Maggie was there too. She was having dad feed her cookies the entire time.

After spending a week and a half with the children and without preschool, I am admitedly a bit scared of spending the entire summer without any of us having time away from each other. However, I think we will make the best of it and do lots of swimming, crafts and park days.
