I can't make up my bed!

We also got a new puppy. She is a Jack Russel Terrier named Daisy. She likes to take her morning nap in my bed so if I haven't gotten around to making it then I have to wait for her nap to be over. It maybe an accuse but I think it is a good one. I don't normally like to show my bed unmade but here you go.

Kindergarten Graduation

Finally, Ava graduated from Kindergarten. It was a very emotional experience. Especially when they announced, "the Kindergarten class of 2008, future Senior class of 2020." I really wanted to keep living in denial that she would ever grow up, graduate and go off to college but I guess I'm going to have to face reality.

Blue Ribbon Art Work

I know these next few posts are going to be a big brag session on Ava but so much went on these last 2 months of school that I couldn't hardly keep up. Ava also got a blue ribbon on some Christmas art work that she did. It was displayed at the Chambers County Youth Expo so went went to Anahauc to see it. The expo showcased a lot of art, woodworking, science, cooking and sewing projects from youth of all ages. They also had the 4H and FFA there showing their animals. The girls really liked walking around and looking at all the animals. I think we are going to investigate 4H for Ava.

Ava was the star!

Earlier in May the Kindergarten Center had a program. Ava never made a big deal about it so I was surprised to find out that she had a staring role. I'm glad I did not miss it that day. I took some video but for some reason I can't get it up on the blog. Basically, Ava did the last lines. She asked the audience to stand to salute the American and Texas flags then lead the group as we said the Pledge of Alligiance and Salute to the Texas flag. Then she thanked everyone one for coming and that ended the show. I was so proud and she seems to really shine on stage. Imagine that!
