Last Friday I got to go to Claire's Kindergarten class to help with their 100 book celebration. The kids got to dress up as a character from their favorite book. Claire's favorite book is the Pigeon series by Mo Williams. It was a bit tricky to dress her like the pigeon but we worked it out. Her partner dressed up as Sam I am from Green Eggs and Ham. Claire is a foot taller than most of the kids in her class.She was blessed with major height!!!
Mrs Burningham let Claire read her book to the class.
We slit up into groups and the whole class read 100 books in 30 minutes. The class celebrating their achievement. .
Then all the kids that read 100 books by themselves got a reward and a book.
Claire was most excited about her free pizza coupon from Big J's. She is easy to please.
Since it was Friday the kids got out of school early.
Kamie invited us to go hang out at their farm and have dinner.
Claire has been begging for weeks to go see Uncle Tim's pigs. They were big, noisy and smelly.
She loved every second.
Reagan was excited to show everyone her animals.
Harrison didn't want to get close to anything. He would point but wouldn't get close. He was even afraid of the dogs and cats.
He was relieved when Kam brought out some toys for him to play with. He was stressed out.
The newest addition to the farm is Paisley. Claire mauled this poor puppy to death.
Melissa and Jenni joined us too with Wyatt, Lyndsee, and Carter.
Riding Reagan's new set of wheels.
When Uncle Tim got home he let Brad feed the pigs. I now understand the term "you are eating like a pig" or "your room is a pig-stye" These pigs live up their reputation.
The kids were very entertained watching the pigs eat.
Uncle Tim collected the chicken eggs and let the chickens out of their coop. Harrison liked them from a distance.
Brad and Claire chased them around for hours. Poor things probably wont lay eggs for a week after all that stress.
Carter and Reagan trying to show Harrison how cool the chickens are. He was still not convinced.
Claire and Lyndsee played house with the puppy. They built a crib for her to sleep in. Seriously...poor dog.
After dinner Uncle Tim gave all the kids tractor rides.
Every one took turns.
I think Carter was the happiest!!! I love his grin.
Poor Puppy!!!
Kam and I bathed the babies. While we were cleaning up we heard them laughing and giggling. They were sliding down the stairs then racing back up as fast as they could. It was pretty funny. This went on for about 20 minutes. I was happy they were burning off every last ounce of energy before bedtime.
Yea for spring break!!!! This is just the beginning.
