Kindergarten Promotion

Not much goes on at our house. Mckinley is constantly growing and changing. Payton finished school, and Scarlett is beginning to learn her letters.

Mckinley loves to stand and hear us each cheer and clap for her. She knows she is tricky!

Scarlett still falls asleep anywhere and everywhere. She has full lips just like her mom. This particular day she was falling asleep as Josh was leaving for scouts so he went over and gave her a kiss. She obviously kissed him back and her lips stayed just like that. It was cute and funny. Mckinley loves water and loves using my cups with a straw. 

Babies bring so much joy to everyone I love it. I see why though every time I look at Mckinley and other pictures of babies I just get a big smile on my face. Its such a miracle having children.

The last week of school Payton's class had a field day. I was able to go and help that day and it was a lot of fun. The teacher had the groups all assigned out. Payton ended up in a group with a 3 girls and no boys. Payton is not a ladies man. He will tell you he doesn't play with girls. He was a trooper though and did great with the girls in his group at each station. 

 First day of Kindergarten to the last day of Kindergarten. I can't believe it's all over!

This Kindergarten class!

My Stud!

Very proud day! My baby is growing up and I can't believe it!

Josh had to work so he didn't make it, but the girls and I were there to cheer him on and congratulate him.

Love this boy to pieces!!!

Friends from class that he played with. Ashniel and Issai.

Ms. Petyo was an amazing teacher. I just loved her and am so glad Payton got to have her as his first teacher in school ever. She truly cared about each of the kids. Payton was able to survive a classroom filled with 33 kids. He learned a ton and grew leaps and bounds. I can't believe all the things he learned in 1 school year. He can now read, write, count to 100, do addition and subtraction, and knows a ton more things. I'm amazed how much these kids have to learn.

Each of the kids received this picture frame with their picture in it. I love it! 

It was a fun day celebrating Payton's promotion! He is such a joy to be in our family and we love him so much!!!
