end of the school year

Yesterday we attended Will's preschool graduation and end of the year ceremony.  Will did great.  We were so proud of him.  In the past he hasn't been the best performer at these events, but this time he did great singing all the songs and accepting his certificate with pride.  He sang the "Days of the Week" song, "A,B,C's", the "Soaring Little Eagles" song, and the "Goodbye Friends" song!  Will was so glad to have Isa, Gabi, and his Bapa and Gramma come to the ceremony.  Gabi even enthusiastically clapped as each name was called... too cute!

Today the kids and I attended Will's end of the year field trip to the Memphis Kiddie Park (a favorite place of ours!).  We were real worried that we weren't going to go today (because of all the tornado, flood and thunderstorm warnings).  It was sunny when we left the house, but got there to grey skies.  We kept our fingers crossed, and were blessed with beautiful weather all morning.  The storm held out until our drive home and more rain in the evening.  
Isa and Will rode EVERY ride there.  They even rode on the "little dipper" roller coaster ride several consecutive times!  Gabi got to join in on some of the rides and seemed to have enjoyed herself as well... although her favorite part was lunch!  



Finally... (yeah it was a busy day), we hung out with Gramma and Grandma Thomas.  We checked out a new local Conservatory and park in Avon.  The flowers were beautiful and nothing beats some ice cream at the end of the day!
