Last Day of School For Miss Masi

Ohhhhh...this is not only the last day of kindergarten for Masi, but the last day of Montessori forever. Masi will be going to Chubbuck Elementary next year. We will miss Montessori so much. It makes me sad to think it's really over. What a fun ride it has been. And Masi has really just excelled there. Thank you Miss Lori for teaching and loving my sweet girl. We will miss you! (Good thing you're her Aunt so we will still see your cute face all the time! Hee-hee!)

*Notice the cute Tie-Dyed shirts all the kids are wearing. They made them themselves!!

Buttons

It was one of those nights where my kids were just raking on my nerves. Constantly fighting and driving me NUTS.

Lexie: When are you going to read us our bedtime story?

Me: Lexie, you have not done one thing I have asked without throwing a fit. You are fighting with your brother and sister. I don't know if I should tonight. You might have to go to bed without a story tonight.

Lexie: WHAT!? Why?

Me: Because you are pushing my buttons.

Masi comes walking in.

Masi: Mom, are you going to read to us?

Lexie: She doesn't know, Masi (sounding annoyed). We are pushing her buttons.

Masi: What buttons?

Lexie: You know, her buttons.

Masi: What buttons????

Lexie: Ugh. I don't know. She just made that up.

Masi: No, I don't think so. I bet she learned how to say that from her mom.

It's funny how I can be so annoyed one second and the next be silently laughing to myself thinking how cute my kids are. No matter how naughty they can be they are still very sweet and I love their innocence. I love how literal they take the things I say. They make me laugh and bring so much joy to my life. What would I ever do without my sweet babies??? I love them all so much!

Montessori Picnic

During the last few days of school, the kindergarten and preschool classes at Montesorri went on a picnic. They brought a sack lunch then played on the toys. Fun, fun!

Day Trip to Heise

We made a little trip to Heise Hot Springs this spring. The kids love to go there and do a little camping, swimming, and miniature golf. Most of their cousins were there so it's always fun to play with them.

Me and Craig's dog, Dixie. I thought she was so ugly at first but she grew on me. Now I think she is so cute!
