Summertime is here!

Its summertime in Texas, and besides temperatures over 100 degrees, it has lots of fun in store!

I start my summer school class this Monday.  Im not sure that I will know what to do taking only 3 hours, but I have 13 more to look forward to in the Fall.  I guess I will enjoy the small bit of rest!

June 3rd was Kris' last day of school.  He has done exceptional this year in school.  His involvement in the Archery Team at school has given the incentive that he needed to keeps his grades and conduct where they need to be.  He was awarded medals for receiving a 96 on the Math and 98 in Reading on the TAKS test.  For third graders, that test is embedded in their brains from day one of school.  It is basically a life line that they must pass to be promoted to the next grade.  He will have to endure the test again in the 8th and 11th grade.  So, we officially have a 4th grader!

Riley had her end of year program at her Praise and Play.  Its amazing that those teachers are able to teach a large group of 2, 3 and 4 year olds songs and dances.  They were all very adorable.  The 4 year olds graduated, and Miss Riley will be graduating next year.  Time flies!

So as Summer begins, we are counting down the days until Elizabeth comes to spend a few weeks with us.  I know I say this often, but I hope this summer I am able to keep up this blog.  Hopefully we will have exciting things to share!
