Alright...... this doesn't happen EVER, but Kyle and I ate Sonic in bed the other night! I am embarrassed as I write this! It was my first trip to Sonic and it happened to be late at night. This was a one time occurrence, but it sure was yummy!

Each winter and spring season we need to change out the storms and screens on the first floor windows of our house. We have gotten pretty speedy at doing it, but we needed to go back and replace some hooks to make sure the windows aren't flapping in the wind. Here is Kyle in all his handy work. Sorry for the poor quality!
Ta Da!

At the end of the school year I had the staff over for a cookout. It happened to be our administrative assistant's birthday as well! We had a blast giving her "white elephant" gifts and celebrating with cake!

K-5 has a pretty big graduation ceremony so the K-4 class has been having a V.I.P picnic where parents can come and hang out, play games, eat yummy treats and enjoy the last day of school. Here are some pics from our picnic! (we got to be outside this year!!!) PS. My students are all beautiful! I might be a little biased!

My K-4 students were soooo excited to talk about what they would like to do in K-5.
I did have a parent tell me thought that Elena was sad because she won't be able to give me lots of hugs during the day when she's in K-5.... How cute is that! If you are ever feeling sad or down,
go visit a K-4 classroom, they will love you unconditionally.

Almost time to take down the coathook nametags! Notice we had to make hook extenders so my kids could hang up their own stuff! Thanks to Dennis the 3rd grade teacher for being MacGyver!

Farm animals came to visit our school. The kids had blast getting to pet them. The horse is actually a baby of a miniature horse. So cute! The chickens were hatched in the 4th grade classroom incubator. So it was pretty neat for the students to see them as eggs and now as baby chicks.
Martin said "those chicks are from my sisters classroom!" :)

The new gardens are planted for the season. I even ended up with one "surprise garden". A flower had popped up and then my neighbor gave me some flowers and then I had a few marigolds left from the front garden.
Surprise new garden!

Crazy surprise flower...I think it may be a lily

I was honored when my sister in law asked me to take her engagement photos around Milwaukee. We had a blast with her and her fiance at Miller Park, downtown and near the lake. Enjoy a few sneak peaks! Thanks Ter, I had such a blast doing this with you guys!!

Way back when for our wedding Kyle's grandparents got us our grill as a wedding present. We have been trying to plan a day when they could come down from Green Bay and enjoy a BBQ with us! We got the best weather to grill out and enjoy the day. Thanks again G and G Anderson!
Grandma and Grandpa turned their heads away from the camera and told me that this was their good side :)
I swear the food was tasty!

In our classroom we grew butterflies from caterpillars. Here we are releasing them back into the wild of St. Roman's front lawn! They were soooo excited to watch the butterflies!

I received this apology note from a student of mine. Her parents are good friends of mine, so it was pretty adorable to receive. She took 2 prizes from our classroom "treasure chest" instead of 1....and her mom had her deliver this letter to me. Note the magnet says, you can't scare me, I teach Kindergarten. (Thanks to a good friend for making that for me!)

Kyle brought me these beautiful flowers while I was finishing my last report cards for the year! What a GREAT surprise!!! Can't believe my report cards are done for the year!

I started going to "Studio Night" at a friend of mine's house in the neighborhood. It's a night were a bunch of girls get together and work on any art project they are working on. Some people were working on cutting their material for quilts, I was cutting out things for my class (boring), and another girl taught us how to make these bracelets with pop-tops!

As my going away present to my students this year, a dad of a student in my class and I made DVD's of the kids singing their favorite K-4 songs. It look a little while to make and record all of them singing individually, but it turned out adorable! I was very lucky to have a techie parent who knew how to make the DVD with transitions and everything. Here is a picture of the case I made.
