Hedwig, Eclipse, Field Day, Twin's Graduation, Pinterest Project

So every once in a while we have an owl in our neighborhood. He likes our house and this time it was actually still a bit light out. You can see his silhouette. He is a great horned owl about two feet tall. We have named him Hedwig and the boyz are waiting for their letters to Hogwarts. He 'hoos' to another owl somewhere in the neighborhood.

We had to study the eclipse that Ryan told me about the morning of! So we resorted to a pinhole:

And our finger shadows on the house. See the eclipse?:

Twins had a field day last week. Each class had different colored tees. I spent most of my time with Daniel's class as Sammy's had lots of parents. But I did sneak over to get a picture once in a while. They had fun. THe firetruck that was suppose to come and hose them all off didn't. It was a good thing as it was slightly cool and the wind would have frozen them! Daniel doing an obstacle course

Sammy jumping rope

Daniel & Sammy's classes crossed in the field....attack brother!

and don't forget the arm....he wouldn't even try the neck

Daniel playing games....this one was fun. Large circle and everyone had to get thru the hula hoop without letting go

Daniel jumping rope.....nice action photo, if I can brag!

Daniel and his teacher Brenda Malnack. She started teaching kindergarden when Ryan entered school. She has had 4 of our 6 kids. She is great!

Daniel with his best buddy Jarrett. They had to exchange phone numbers!

Sammy with his teacher, Rachel Knight. She was Ryan and Comptyn GATE teacher so she has had 3 of our 6 boyz. (this new format for Blogspot is driving me NUTS! I don't know why this is blue and highlighted!)

Bell Photography came in and took pictures of the kids in caps and gounds. I didn't buy any because I am too cheap to spend $10 on one picture! But when they put it on the boy's graduation 'diploma' it is mine!

Twins singing all their songs. They even counted to 100! That was a LONG song! :-)

End of the year teacher gifts off of pinterest. They are coupled with teacher appreciation week as I forgot to look it up this year! Beach towel, game book, sunscreen and peach rings. Simple, easy!

ENJOY YOUR SUMMER! We already have lots of plans!
