End of the Year Kindergarten Party

The bonus of me being on maternity leave right now is that I have been able to attend alot of class parties and school functions for both kids.  It's been great!  Anniston's kindergarten had their end of the year party last week.  She was so excited that I could make it :)
 They colored a frame for their "photo booth" picture to go in to
 Then they went around and autographed everybody's frame
 She was so focused
 Photo booth with Kennedy.....see how tall our Anniston is?!?!
 Silly girl!
 Snack time!
 Brecken chilled out, and did great!  One of the other Momma's wanted to snuggle her.
 Best big sister EVER!
 The class giving Mrs. Hulsey her gift

 Now for a silly picture!
 Anniston and Mrs. Hulsey....seriously, she was the BEST I could have ever asked for.  I honestly just prayed for a teacher with a kind heart and loving spirit.  She exceeded my wildest dreams of a perfect teacher.  She loved Anniston, encouraged her, and challenged her.  She would text me pictures of Anniston doing projects, and email me just to check on me during the pregnancy.  She would ask me if it was ok to challenge Anniston when she thought she could handle it.  Anniston did several AR books (which means nothing to me yet), but apparently it's something they start in first grade.  Anniston scored 5/5 on every test!  We are so proud of our sweet little girl!  She excelled so much this year.  She learned 1,000 sight words (then moved on to 1st grade phrases), is reading chapter books, decomposed up to the number 18, and is writing 6-8 line stories with proper capitalization and punctuation.

I cannot believe we are parents of a 1st grader!!!
