More of May Happenings

LOTS AND LOTS of PICTURES!!!! Trying to finish up all of May. Then hopefully I can get June and July and I think I will be caught up!

I forgot about all the end of the year things the girls both did when I made the May Happenings before!

For Emily's End of the Year Party (3rd grade), they got to go to their teacher's house!! Here are a few of the thing they did while they were at her house....


Played in the treehouse.





They each brought pictures, from a disc that the teacher gave them of all the pictures that had been taken through out the year, and made small scrapbook!!

Emily making one of her pages. This scrapbook is

still very cherished!

They had a mystery lunch, meaning that they had to order their items off of a menu that was done in code and they had no idea what course, utensils, drink, etc they were getting. They main course was pizza, I think Em got her pizza at the end, and got fruit and jello first and dessert 2nd. The ingredients on the pizza were also coded! Em had to be coached a little on this one, she wasn't quite liking not getting thing in the "right" order, but she ended up having a good time!

I only got a pic of 1st course, because most of the
parents were in the kitchen helping to put it all

together.

Kerri Ann had a field trip to Jamestown at the end of the year.

Looking at the path that was traveled from Europe

to the new world.

Listening to the tour guide.

Inside a model of what the homes looked like
back in the 1600's.

I think this is the replica of the Susan Constant.

KA's class party and "graduation"

J and KA being silly at their table.

Mrs. May giving KA her character award (and
at this point I can't remember what word was
used to describe her. It was basically about her
being a friend to everyone.)

KA reading a book with her class.

KA getting her Kindergarten Diploma.

Finished with Kindergarten!

Fairies and Princesses....

For her 7th birthday, Kerri Ann wanted a TinkerBell party, again! This year we invited all of the girls in her class (8 counting Kerri Ann), 2 of her friends from church, and the big sister of one of her friends, who is the same age as Emily. We invited 12 total (counting KA and Emily) and ALL 12 were there! They all got along VERY well and Kerri Ann had a great day! The party was from 2pm - 4pm, parents could drop off their little fairies.

For the Craft/Goodie Bag we made Necklaces and Bracelets using the box of 5000 beads that I had bought.

Stringing the beads .


Such concentration!

She was concentrating hard too! I got a picture of each

child and in each picture this is about how they all looked!


Most were finishing up at this time.

Next, I had put together a "coloring book" of fairies for them to color. This also gave me time to set up for cupcakes and ice cream. :-)

Coloring away. I offered to let them stand at the table,
they all said no they wanted to stay on the floor!

Cupcakes. Of course what would a cupcake for
KA be without something purple!

Kerri Ann's cupcake!

The inside of the cupcake!

The table set up. Centerpiece had all 12 cupcakes
on it.

Singing to KA.

Blowing the candle out!

Time to eat! Since we don't have 12 chairs I had
the girls stand. One of the little girls asked if
they could all please sit down. Nope sorry we don't
have a place for all of you!

I think they are enjoying the cupcakes, even
if I did make them stand :o)

got! But most of all she LOVED having her FRIENDS
at her house to play with!!

All the 1st grade fairies and princesses! I meant
to get Emily and her friend and somehow they got
away without getting in the picture!

It was a wonderful day for Kerri Ann. On her actual birthday I took chocolate chip cookies to the school for her class to have at lunch time. I also let her pick out what we were going to have for supper that night, she picked pizza!

7 years old!!!

(Kerri Ann's Birthday is November 8, 2003~ but I put the pictures up on the night before, so the date above is not her actual b'day!)
