Sammy's PreK graduation

All together now..... Awwwwwww


For some reason I thought it was a good idea to get Lily all jacked up on candy right before the ceremony and she bounced around like a crazed monkey in a banana factory (Yes, I am aware that bananas are not made in factories... but you get the idea.) At one point, she stacked up some hymnals to make herself a higher seat (at least they weren't Bibles).


Sorry,


these are terrible pics.


Look out kindergarten! Here comes Sam Tuck!

Mother's Day Tea(s)

Lily's class


Later that same day, Sam's class


Mother's Day hat made by Sam (just in time for the Derby!)

Thanks, Sam.

Lily's friend told her mom she didn't want to come play at our house because she was scared. Trying to comfort her, Sam said, "Sarah, our house isn't scary- just messy."

Easter Morning

You have to read the clues to figure out where the Easter Bunny hid your basket!


The hunt is on!


Easter basket booty..

One of these things is not like the others...

First Checkmate!

The kid beat his old man!

I wonder what the 1994 National Chess Championship team would say about this.....

Masterpiece

Lily had a birthday party with some friends at a kid's art studio where they each got to paint their own princess (of course) castle and take home to hang in their room.

Here's when I had some hope. Looking pretty good, right?



And, uh, ta-da! Here is her finished painting:



Well, maybe she'll be good at math.....
