last day of 4s preschool (another late post)

i wasnt sure i would be able to make it to Peyton's last day of school (May 26th), but after talking to Jason we decided i would probably be fine with just attending for about an hour. so we went, it was so great! i sat down a lot, but it was so great seeing Peyton with his friends and playing all of the games at the party.

Peyton's last time leaving the house for school as a four year old. where does the time go?too cool for school!i cant believe how fast it went! such a big boy!time to party! first they did crafts....i love the BLUE fish suncatcher! its hanging in our kitchen window now.then they made ladybugs with sand. SO CUTE! Jason is such a good helper!game time!such good balance!and finally PINATA TIME! Jason got to hold the pinata while the kids played. first they hit it with a noodle.GO Peyton!then with a stick....Good job Peyton! (his teacher looks so sad about the pinata... they worked so hard on it in class!)CANDY & PRIZES!
it was such a fun party for everyone!
thank you Ms. Georgie and Mrs. Luther. we will miss you so much!

fun in the sun day at pre-school

yes, once again i am late on posting.... i will be doing a lot of catching up on my blog in the next few weeks.

Peyton had his Fun In The Sun Day at pre-school a couple of weeks ago (May 24th). i was unable to attend because of my surgery, but Jason went and took lots of pictures for me. i LOVED going through all of them. they played so many fun water games. this first one the kids lined up in a few different lines and started with a cup of water. they poured the water into each other's cups as they went down their line.... the line with the most water in their last cup won the game. it looked like so much fun!and another one! carrying water on your head without spilling it and pouring it into a bucket. i love how the kids are drenched! it was a hot day, so i bet it felt good! and the best game ever.... duck, duck, sponge goose! could he be happier? at the end of the day they had ice pops.... which Peyton LOVES!

mother's day.... a lot late!

i couldn't pass up blogging about mother's day this year. although i was hurting and laying in bed a lot, it actually went really well. Jason went out for doughnuts for breakfast and later, while i was resting, they did crafts, artwork on the fence and made cards. Jason somehow got ahold of my camera and took took pictures! i had no idea!also, when Peyton came home from school the next day he had a bag full of presents for me. they are SO cute. i really do love his school and how much they do with the children. he made me a card. the petals on the flowers are his fingerprints. i love it! i also LOVE his signature.a bunny and a dragonfly he painted. adorbs! a beautiful rainbow! and a letter to me.... which cracks me up. he says im 18! and that i have brown eyes.... they're blue, but that's ok. we always talk about how beautiful his brown eyes are. Jason and Jayden have brown eyes as well. i think maybe he wanted me to match them.and probably my favorite of them all.... a pot holder. the flower is his hand print. such a cute idea! it will hang in our kitchen forever! (front & back)this last picture is something we made as a family the beginning of the school year. it was fun to fill out. (Peyton's favorite song of all time is 'On the road again' i wrote Kenny Rogers sings it when it's actually Willie Nelson! woops!) this hung in Peyton's classroom all year. it was nice to see it again.i keep all of the things he has makes throughout the year (except the crafts that have food on them.... cant imagine what that would be like to see after a few years. i have a storage bin for the school work we save. i did the same thing last year. and will do the same for Jayden when he starts pre-school this fall.

one more extra thing i got for Mother's Day was a GREAT set of actions for photoshop. i absolutely LOVE them! it was a nice relaxing day, although i wish i would have felt better so i could have spent more time with all of my guys. hopefully next year!
i hope all of you had a great Mother's Day as well!

getting ready for Easter!

EGG COLORING! hmmm this looks interesting!
Jayden LOVES yellow, although he calls it boo (blue).
Peyton loved all the colors and wanted to touch them all!
who needs a dip stick when you can just USE YOUR HANDS! Jayden always does things his own way. i LOVE that about him!Peyton's hands got a little messy.
and Jayden's hands got A LOT messy! 'SEE MAMA!' they were so careful with the eggs.they look so great! good job boys!
the next day was Peyton's pre-school Easter party!
he was SO excited! Paw-Paw came over to babysit Jayden so I could go to the party with Peyton. (Jayden is still getting carsick.... poor thing). right as I got to Peyton's school they were heading outside for the Easter Egg Hunt. I made it just in time!and they're off!
there were eggs EVERYWHERE!
i can not believe how big he is now. where is my 4 year old?
counting his eggs.... and tasting a few jelly beans.Jack dropped his eggs and Peyton helped him pick them up. Peyton has fun with Jack. they're silly together.peeking at the goodies in a few of his own eggs.
Easter Class Picture!
snack time! Peyton wasn't so sure about the cookie.then it was time for crafts. Peyton and Jack worked together.
finally it was time to go home.... and we had a 4 day weekend coming up! Yay Easter!
