NO More teachers...... no more books......


Dale and Mrs. Washington


Schools out for Summer! So we had a great last week at School. Dale had games on Monday his Poetry Picnic on Tuesday, Bubbles and Books Wednesday, Yearbooks on Thursday and a party on Friday....tough week! So it was great for the poetry picnic his teacher sent home a folder last week of 6 nursery rhyme poems and said pick one from here or any book, memorize and recite Tuesday. Not to brag but Dale was the only one who did a poem from a different book so he had the only different poems there.

They were Advise by Shel Silverstein.....William Tell William Tell heres your arrow grip it well, theres the apple aim for the middle, .....Oh Well, you just missed by a little.















And Lazy Jane by Shel Silverstein....Lazy, lazy, lazy, lazy,lazy,lazy Jane, she wants a drink of water so she waits and waits and waits and waits and waits for it to rain.















His teacher even took him to 2 other teachers and had him recite his poems for them....he was very proud, and so was I. Here is the teacher gift we gave her from the class...a bowl with each childs handprint made into a tree with apples on them and it said Mrs. Washingtons Apples
Dale wanted Macy and Reid to attend and they loved going to his school. And Mrs Washington knew them by name ....very cool .....she is an AWESOME teacher. Here is Dales recap of his year in video.

Then on Tuesday Uncle Brad came into town.....and then came the spoiling of the nephews and neice....they played on the trampoline in the sprinkler, went swimming, went to Chuck-E-Cheese, he gave them toys and gifts.....This is ALL on Tuesday! Wednesday he built model airplanes with them and they flew them....and toted Reid all over the city with him in Big Red...and Thursday he took Reid again all over the city and all the kids to the school and they shot off rockets. VERY COOL....they LOVED ITNeedless to say they were bummed when Brad left Thursday night and called Grandma and Bepaw and left a pathetic phone message from Macy and Reid begging to come visit. So Brad and Bepaw got the celebrity reception this afternoon and they are off to Kerrpatch. Hopefully we can use the time to get some stuff done here at home.
