Favorite Friday Photo

It's been a while since I've done one of these (or any blog posts for that matter). I never claimed to be consistent.

Mayfest

Abigail's school had Mayfest (sort of like field day) today. All 8 kindergarten classes and parents participated.

The highlight of the day was the musical they did. Abigail was front and center stage! :) The music teacher picked a few kids from each class to hold props for the songs. Abigail was duck number 2. She sat with perfect posture, sang every song and smiled the whole time! Of course my battery in the camera died right before it started. Luckily a friend took some pictures and a video for me.

It Was Inevitable :(

Art Show

Abigail's painting was chosen for the County Art Show. As you can see, she was quite proud. Mom and Dad were proud too! There were only two kids from her class that were picked!





It was a watercolor depicting her interpretation of a book she had read about the circus.

Another Year, Another Auction, Another Bunny?!

I don't what the chances of finding another bunny in the annual charity auction that we go to are, but Abigail found one and was determined to win it. Luckily she only had one other person bidding against her. When the lady saw who she was bidding against she quickly stopped. We got the bunny at a fair price. ;)

Amelia on the other hand, found a beautiful (wink wink) glass fish sculpture that she had to have. "It goes with our beach house perfectly" she said. We told her she could bid on it. Unbeknownst to us, it was also being auctioned off with a strand of pearls! There were quite a few people bidding along with her, but in the end she won! We didn't get out of that one that cheap, but all the money goes to charity so we didn't mind. :)

Happiest At The Beach

My mom gave me this rose almost six years ago. It's called Seven Sisters and it has never bloomed, until now! We were all pretty surprised and excited to see the pink petals. It's called Seven Sisters because it's supposed to have multiple shades of pink flowers. There's a whole bunch of buds on it, so we'll just have to wait and see.
