Celebration of Learning

Celebration of Learning

It’s hard to believe that it’s already the end of the school year.  Celebration of Learning was a little rushed for us this year as we had to scramble to 3 classes and an honor choir concert with times overlapping.

It was so much fun to see all the work the girls had done in class.  The classrooms looked great and the girls were so excited to show us all their work.  🙂

Memorial Weekend Trip to Portland

Memorial Weekend Trip to Portland

Another last minute trip (We seem to be getting good at those) but this time we headed down to Portland for the night.

We stayed at the Red Lion on Jantzen Beach and enjoyed a lot of time in the pool and spa.  It was a bit chilly out, but the both were heated, so it didn’t matter.

Breakfast was included with our hotel room (amazing deal) and we had a nice meal overlooking the river.

Sage’s Honor Choir Concert

Sage’s Honor Choir Concert

Sage has been part of the 4th and 5th grade honor choir this school year.  They practiced every Friday morning before school and has several concerts throughout the year.

Their final concert was at the Middle School auditorium.  Sage sang in both the choir and in a trio. 🙂

Tea with Sage

I can’t believe the time has come . . . the time to talk with our oldest about growing up and how our bodies change as we grow and develop.

A few weeks ago, I met with my friend Tykee from church and she shared with me some of the special things she did with her daughter around this age.  I took some of those and a few that Tom and I had and planned a very special afternoon for just Sage and I.

Below is what I did . . . written out mostly so that I remember for the next 2.  🙂

Tom took the girls out to the library for about a half hour while I set up our tea party.

 

Tom dropped Sage off and took the other two girls out for a couple hours.

Molly’s Gymnastics Class

Molly has been wanting to take gymnastics classes for a while now.  We signed her up for classes at Summit Gymnastics and she loved it.  She did two sessions and then we took a break to start swim lessons.  She learned so much in such a short period of time!
