Cam's End Of Year Party part 2 (date June 10th)

I had just made it to Cam's party as the festivities were beginning. Oh my gosh-2 full kindergarten rooms (over 55 kindergarteners) There were a ton of little people all over the place. It was chaos-sort of controlled chaos but chaos nonetheless. They had 6 different centers-mostly centering around some sort of a liquid-thank goodness we were outdoors. There was a jump rope game where as you tried to jump rope, you had to hold a cup of water over your head and not have it spill on you. Not one of Cam's best games. There was also a bubble center to see who could make the biggest bubbles. Another center was a relay race where you had to soak a sponge and pass it to your teammates and then squeeze it out into a bucket and whatever team has the most water in his bucket, wins the race-Cam's team won!! Another one was to put a bunch of bouncy balls in the huge parachute and try to keep the balls from coming out-I think the kids goal was to make all the balls come out-I must have chased 12 into the street after they went over the fence. The 5th one was another relay one but they had to hold a tin cup with holes in it over their head and try to make it across the way to put the rest of the water in the bucket-it was a tie. So many kids were slipping and sliding on the grass from all of the water spills-quite funny. And the last center was musical chairs-Cam was the Champion!!! After all that chaos, it was time to eat. Heidi's husband had BBQ'd hot dogs and they were also munching down on chips and root beer floats. Wow, the noise was incredible with a table full of boys chanting "Root Beer Root Beer" at the top of their lungs. Man, it is a good thing I only had to bring one of those noisy ones home with me. By this time, there were just minutes to go till school was out so in they went to get their backpacks and other items. Us moms helped take down it all and put all the tables and chairs back in their places. A great time was had by all but so thankful its over!!!

Just a few more pics of the activities of the day....

Bay's End Of Year Party part 1 (date June 10th)

For Bay's end of school year party, it was at the park right by our house. It was so nice. All I had to do was bake 3 dozen brownies and show up and help set up. By this age, they pretty much entertain themselves (yeah!!) So, I walked over with their class and Bay was actually wanting to walk next to me and actually held my hand for a ways-odd? We get to the park and he takes off like a bullet. Since we were the first class there, it was still fairly quiet. While they played for a while, I was able to talk a little to Mrs. Douglas, Josh's mom and Megan's dad. Megan was the only girl that made it to Bay's party so we talked a little about what else-the kids. Then, the other classes were starting to trickle in and I wanted to get a few pics of Bay with his friends before I had to leave to help at Cam's party. He is so funny. A lot of the pictures are with the girls-Megan, Taylor and Peyton. All cutie patooties. They all get along so well. There are a few shots of Bay with some of his "guy" friends but not many-I think he prefers the girls. Oh no, already a ladies man. Bay was acting a little clingy and actually wanting me in some pics and kept giving me hugs (which is very rare, especially around his friends) so I asked if he was doing ok?-if anything was the matter? He just looked kind of sad and just kind of out of sorts. He kept looking out at the guys that were playing football. I asked if there were any friends out there playing football that he wanted to get pictures with? He said yeah but they were too busy. I asked if he wanted to go out and play football with them. He just looked at me with puppy eyes and said that he did not know how to play and they made fun of him last time because he did not know how. I told him I was proud that he even tried-especially not knowing what he was doing but that he put himself out there. It just seemed he was kind of ostrisized from some of the boys because he did not play sports. So I asked if he wanted me or daddy to get him a football and help teach him how to play so he could get out there with the boys. He looked up at me with the biggest grin on his face and said yes. So ofcourse, after I got home I called Dave and told him what had happened. He went and got a football and they are going to go to the park saturday and start learning the game. I thought that was too sweet. What a way to step up to the plate daddy. I am so proud of you. Well, then it was pizza time and time for me to go help at Cam's party. So, after more hugs and kisses (which I never get tired of) I was off for another party...
