Field Day

Field Day was on May 19, 2015.  I was able to go volunteer as a member of the PTA.

One of the best moments of the day was when Gage wanted to give up and so many of the students ran with him and cheered him on, helping him to complete the race.  It was awesome!

My little Zander buddy.

Lindey is my little sidekick and was able to come hang out at the high school with me.

Zander doing the softball throw.

Morgan was there too. the 4th, 5th, and 6th graders went to the high school, and the lower grades did their own field day at the city park.

Zander competed in the high jump and made it pretty far.  I think he was one of the last 5 kids in the competition.  Looks hard to me! Lol

Morgan and McKenna Bennett were great cheerleaders all day. (I think the fact the team with the most sportsmanship won a prize basket for their class had a little to do with it.) They were almost at the point of driving everyone crazy.  We had to tell them a few times to come up with a new cheer! Lol

The height some of these kids could get was pretty amazing!  Made for some fun pictures anyways.

The girls even got Lindey involved in the cheerleading schemes.

Zander doing the long jump.  Love this picture!

On your mark, get set, go!

Devin handing off to Zander in the Baton Relay. The kids always love this event!

More girls got involved with the cheering. They definitely kept morale up!

Morgan's turn to run in a race. Great job sis!

When Eli was finished at Kindergarten, he got to come hang out with the big kids too.  He ran a few races.  I love this little boy!  He had all the big kids cheering him on.

Tyler Urqhart and Zander in the Mile race. They were on the run a bit, walk a bit track.

All competitors received a Popsicle.  Eli earned his!

It was a great Track and Field Day!  We ended just as the weather turned to wind and rain.  Perfect timing!

Lindey's Birthday

We celebrated Lindey's birthday with a quiet family party.  Each year we have usually invited those who helped us when I was so sick after Lindey was born. This year marks the beginning of a new era. We no longer live by any of our angels, so we will party by ourselves!

Lindey loves Hello Kitty, so she got a lot of it!

An activity pack...

A stuffed ballerina Hello Kitty.

Love, love, love her face in this one! She got a Tinkerbell night light card. Lol

Her own box of Cookies and Cream Pop Tarts. She loves those things.

One of her birthday requests was a new carseat that had purple on it. Lol

Wish granted...it even has flowers. Lol- she loved it!

We made Lindey a Hello Kitty cake. It turned out perfect! 

 

Happy birthday, missy! We love you very much! Can't believe you are FOUR!!

Story Time

The Orangeville Library does Story time for the 3-5 year olds during the school year.  I try to take Lindey so she can get to know some of the other kids her age since there isn't anyone at church, and we are new. Eli is done with Kindergarten before story time is over, so a lot of times he gets there in time to do the craft.  This week they made spider hats.  They turned out so cute! 

Eli really didn't want his picture taken, so once he started covering his face, we were finished. Lol

Lindey, however, loved having her picture taken in her hat.  She was very proud that she had colored and cut out the eyes all by herself!

Gotta love that face! :)

Bed Buddies

Morgan was gone this evening, and Lindey didn't want to go to bed alone. Zander offered to have Lindey go to sleep in his bed.  They looked so cute, that we left her there all night!
