The School Graduates

Third time's a charm! We finally got to see one of our preschoolers graduate!

Kasen's was cancelled for COVID and Tai's was moved up a week early when we had a cruise booked, but  Tuesday was Kohen's time to shine! He graduated from Jenny Penny Preschool and did a cute program where they sang songs they learned and each kid had a part to say. Now he's "movin up... to kindergarten!"

He's loved going to preschool! Picking what to bring for mystery bags, monthly field trips and being there with Bryson. His last field trip was on Monday at Cory Wride Memorial Park. We love you Kohen!

He also finished his computer preschool he did every day this year too. Kasen and Tai also did Upstart and I am a fan.

At school Tai picked an animal to learn about and she picked bats then did an optional diorama project all by herself.

Tai also read all 10 of her Battle of the Books books earning a free book! Go Tai!

I love what she made for Art Day:

Moms were invited to her tumbling class the week after Mother's Day so I went with her to that and the next day got to be the Mystery Reader in her class! I read "Have You Filled A Bucket Today?"

Tai asked if she can go to summer school because she doesn't want the year to end.

Kasen finished LEGO League for the year and had a showcase to show the rockets they made with the Artemis ROADS missions. They had to keep their Pringle chipstronaut from breaking and even though Chippie Bob came out of the rocket, he didn't break!

Then we went in to see the robots they built and coded to go through the different mazes.

Kasen had his 4th grade Utah Program, but the Utah Counties song is a different version than the one I learned in 4th grade.

Throwback to my 4th grade Utah program in 1998 with my friend Taylor Both.

A couple days later we got to go watch Kasen and Tai dance at the school's dance festival! Tai danced to Footloose and Kasen danced to a 70's song I do not know. But they both looked like they were having lots of fun!

We convinced them to miss the one hour of school tomorrow so that we could leave to go camping today. We knew Tai would be sad whether her last day was today or tomorrow. But at least this time she gets to go back to the same school next year!

Oh and remember the 6 hours I spent individually cleaning and drying pine needles? Kasen never even finished or brought home his pine needle basket they were supposed to make with them! So that was even a bigger waste of time than I originally thought.

Hello Summer!
