Sean is no longer a Kindergartner!

And it seems sort of fitting.  Most of the time it's hard to believe your kids are getting so big and so old.  However with Sean, that sorta isn't the case.  Sean has been 5 for about 3 years...well actually he's 6 now, but up til 5, he seemed about 5 for years!  He's always trying to do what Ryan's doing and won't settle for less!  We always laugh when we remember Ryan getting his first bike at 3 years old.  Sean, 13 1/2 months old was beside himself that the bike wasn't his and he wasn't riding it!  And when he finally got his turn he was so happy!  Most just barely 1 year old kids wouldn't care so much about an older sibling's new bike.  Anyhow, he's Graduated Kindergarten and is off to First Grade!

Sean's Kindergarten teacher and class were so great!

Really, I dearly love his teacher Mrs. Foote!  She cares so much for the kids, expects good behavior, teaches them very well, has great classroom behavior systems/rewards, sings with them, has catchy sayings and trained interactions to keep them engaged, and I could go on!  I truly love her so much!  Makes me want Kyle to hurry up and go to Kindergarten so we can have her in our lives for another year!

And we lucked out due to Marilyn's busy life and were able to stay in her time share in Lake Tahoe after the last day of school!  Does it look like this is a picture taken on June 4th?  Yes, we have sweatshirts and winter jackets on!  It was freezing and sprinkling rain on us, but it was still such a fun trip!  We had a blast exploring the waterfall at the top of Emerald Bay...more rocks to wander around on up there than I realized!  And yes, Sean is sort of in this picture.

We expected this waterfall to have crazy amounts of water, but it seemed like it had less water than when we were there 2 years ago same time...but realized with our crazy cold spring, the snow hasn't had a chance to melt yet!

And we enjoyed to pool lots!  The kids were in heaven in this heated pool.  Can't wait for more pool parties this summer!
