JULY FESTIVITIES

Chad's Dad turned 80 this month!!!

We had a surprise party for him and all of Chad's 6 siblings came.

We all had a great time and it was so good to see everyone.

Here is Charli and her cousin Alaska. They are about 7 mths apart in age.

I couldn't get over how much the two girls looked alike.

I made my first "Lapbook"

It really was a lot of fun creating this book and was so simple.

Here is the inside of the Lapbook.

It has so many little pockets and flaps with all kinds of interaction for kids.

I think this is my new preschool addiction.

Here is a new #4 shirt for Charli and her upcoming birthday.

I hav another shirt that I am working on for her to wear for her party.

Charli is going to be 4 in about a month now!!

I just can't believe how fast the time has gone.

So I know that I haven't posted in almost a month. It has been very over due for a new post. This month has really just flown by. I am currently trying to plan curriculum for the new school year that is coming up. All my daycare kids are 3 and 4 yrs old and are so ready to start up with some new projects and learning. I am really excited about integrating my phonics program that I bought a while back.

This weekend we are taking off to San Jose and Santa Cruz. Saturday we are going to visit the Children's Discovery Museum in San Jose. Sunday we are going to Sea Cliff Beach in Santa Cruz. And if we have time on Sunday we are going to try to sneak in dinner at the warf in San Francisco. It will be a very fast 2 days but with lots of fun and very needed "getting out of town-ness" I will for sure post some pictures of our trip when we get home.
