May Happenings

May was a busy month with end of school year events, a visit from Nana and Granddaddy, and a dance recital!

Graecyn took jazz and tap dance lessons this year and had her first dance recital.  Nana and Granddaddy came to visit for her recital and she did so great!  The recital theme was "Animals on Parade" and her tap dance was performed to "Ants Marching" by Dave Matthews Band and her jazz dance was performed to "Afro Circus" from the Madagascar movie.  The dances were so cute!  I volunteered to be back stage for the recital and it was fun to be there with her to help with her makeup and costume change.

The end-of-school year is so busy with so many different events.  Graecyn got to go to school with Eric for "take your child to work day".  She had so much fun, but doesn't think it's a job she'd like to have in the future because "she'd have to work a lot and not be able to sit down very much." (haha!)  The teacher's at Eric's school spoiled her with lots of special treats and she also got to go into different classrooms to see what the classes were learning about.

We were so proud to learn that one of Graecyn's art pieces was selected to be displayed at the school-wide art show.  She didn't know what was selected, so it was a fun surprise for all of us to find out at the art show.

Her class got to go on a field trip to a local learning farm and I got picked to go as a chaperone.  It was a rainy day, but was fun!

Field day fun!
