Pumpkin Patch

Tonight we went to the pumpkin patch to let Reagan and Cooper each pick out a pumpkin. They had a great time running through the patch and looking at all the different size and shaped pumpkins.





















After the pumpkin patch, we went out to eat for Greg's birthday with Bubba & Gigi



Gymnastics School

Reagan went back to gymnastics again this morning. I filmed most of the class, but got a few action shots on the balance beam. That is until Reagan told me to quit taking pictures of her. Oh well, there's always next week! (and I do have a video to watch!)

Nursery Rhyme Extravaganza

Reagan's class held a Nursery Rhyme Extravaganza at school today. The class has been learning a different nursery rhyme for each of the last 8 weeks. And today, they got to perform in front of their parents, grandparents, teachers and another class at school. I was so proud of Reagan. She smiled and wasn't shy like I thought she would be. Thanks to Ms Vicki & Ms Connie for all their hard work and patience in putting together this program.

Note: A lot of these pictures may look the same to you, but to me they each hold a special memory!!

The kids made tickets for the attendees and Reagan was chosen to be the ticket taker while Dylan handed out the programsReagan was very serious about her job ~ "If you don't have a ticket, you have to stay out!"Look who showed up with tickets ~ Bubba and Gigi (they told Greg they were coming in for his birthday, but we all know the real reason!)The room was decorated by drawings from each child for all the nursery rhymes.
