Before heading down to the lake for the holiday, Lily visited her future elementary school for a mini-orientation. With a few other kids, she met with the kindergarten teachers, and according to her (Mom and Dad were outside and unable to observe) they read a book asking and answering questions, she drew a picture of herself, and they identified shapes. She planted a sunflower seed and received a pencil with a funny eraser - she is very excited about starting school in three months!
On Thursday night, we headed down the Grandpa Tom and Grandma Gail's Lake House for the weekend. We had a great time - this year, much more so than ever before (for obvious reasons), Lily and Jack were much more independent and could entertain themselves a bit more. We had lots of pontooning, trips in the ski boat, sea dooing and even some fishing - both kids loved jumping off the dock and are looking forward to our next visit for 4th of July.
We came home Sunday night and had a busy holiday Monday. We started off with a season opening visit to the pool. We came home so Jack could have nice long nap (he had a lot of weekend to recover from). For dinner Grandma Phyllis and Grandpa Maurice came over. The kids had fun playing in the backyard with the grandparents and were in in desperate need of a bath when the evening drew to a close.
Happy birthday wishes to Aunt Kelly this week!
On to the pictures ...
