Slammers Game - Star Wars Night

We've gone to two Joliet Slammers baseball games this summer.  The last one we met a bunch of Luke's classmates and their parents, which was a lot of fun.

The first, though, was the night of Luke's kindergarten graduation.  What a fun way to celebrate our big guy!

We even borrowed some costumes from Grandma & Grandpa for the night!




Luke was in heaven. Paige was a little nervous around these guys.





Emmy & Pat met us at the game!



And some great fireworks to end the night!



Oh, but we can't forget this picture! LOL

Kindergarten Graduation

Luke, you had a great year in school!  You loved kindergarten and learned so much and made so many friends!

You received super sweet notes from your teacher and aide and those are notes your mommy will cherish forever!

On June 5th, we celebrated your kindergarten graduation along with all of your grandparents.





Ms. L - your teacher's aide



Mrs. Mary - your teacher



Daddy & I are so proud of you!









The graduate!



To first grade you go...

School Days

The kids have been in school for just over a month now and they are both loving it!  Here is a look back at their first days!































First up was Luke's "Supply Drop Off Day".  We were able to meet his teacher and see his classroom.  He went straight for the Legos in the classroom!



The next day was his first official day of kindergarten.  He looks so cute in his uniform!







Wally does drop off before he heads to school himself so he sent these pictures to me!





Luke's first day was also Paige's "Meet the Teacher" morning.  Paige made herself right at home in the classroom.





Ty seemed to like it too!



The next day was Paige's first day. She has to wear a gym uniform everyday which is both fortunate and unfortunate. It's not the cutest outfit, but it makes getting ready in the mornings very easy!

She was so excited!













I can't believe I have 2 kids in school! (Luke gets to wear his gym outfit on Wednesdays.)





It's been so great for me to be able to pick them up right when school gets out while I'm on maternity leave. I think it has helped us all transition!



And they love that they get to see each other in school every once in awhile!





And Wally loves the morning conversation he gets to have with them on the way to school!



The school days have begun!
