C's Graduation

 After doing co-op preschool for 2 years C has graduated!

 Getting his diploma.

 It's official!

 The whole graduation class.

Of course an after party to celebrate.

 C is extremely read for kindergarten and ready to get in a "real" classroom.

Music Performances

 B had a singing performance at the end of the school year. It's about the same every year but I still love to see him up there!

 There was about 3 classes doing it together. He did great and looked so nice up there.

 A did violin this year. At the end of the year they did a big performance with several schools. It was held at the high school. This is her with her friends before the show started.

 This is a look at how many kids where there. They sounded great.

I was impressed with how much she learned this year. I hope she does it again next year.

Randomness

 After church the kids were waiting for me to be done talking and this is what I saw.

 I ran another half marathon with my friend and neighbor. I didn't do as well as I had hoped. I think I need to find an easier race because this was my second time doing this one and the hills kill me.

 We got A's old bike out for D and she LOVES it.

 D motivated C to learn without his training wheels. Go C!!

For a friends birthday we did a girls night at disneyland. Fun night!!

After Party, Party

 After A's party Big B met us at Farrell's for dinner and of course dessert. A got sung to...again. 

 We ordered the Pig Trough. With ordering that we had to stand up and be sung to while making piggy faces but it's worth the embarrassment cause it sure was delicious! 

YUM!!

A's Birthday Party

 A had her party at the mall. We did a scavenger hunt that took them around the mall doing all sorts of things.

 Like finding this statue and posing like it.

 People probably thought we were crazy running around the mall.

 We ended up in the food court for cupcakes and presents.

 I think the girls had a great time, especially A!

The Girls Birthdays

 We had a big, crazy family dinner for the girls birthday. 

 They got to open presents from the family.

 D was very happy with her princess things.

Then came the dessert and the big candles to blow out. It was a crazy dinner but the girls loved it and were so happy. We are lucky to have both of them in the family. A is so helpful, smart and fun. D is full of life and keeps us on our toes. We love them!!

Eclipse

 When we heard there was going to be an eclipse my parents found a way for us to see it. 

 This picture is hard to see but it's the kids with their cereal box view finders. If you make cut the cereal box right and put white paper in the back of it then you can see the shadow of the eclipse. It worked really well.

 D even got the hang of it.

 Then a couple showed up with a telescope that had the right lens to be able to view it and we got a better view.

Here is the best shot I got with my camera. We had a lot of fun and it was a great learning experience for the kids.
