A Trip to Remember!


Well, summer is upon us and with that comes the end of a school year....and for Kaelyn and her classmates that means their first school year! And what a wonderful year it was...of course we would expect nothing less than fun with Mrs. Poort as a teacher! When I asked Kaelyn who the class clown was in her class she quickly quipped..."Mrs Poort"!
For Kaelyn this is somewhat of a bitter sweet ending....she will move on to another school and so says farewell to the friends that she has made and grown with over the past year.

The last day of kindergarten ended with a memerable class trip....A ride on the train and a picnic at Happy Ralph's. That is what the kids will remember anyway....I think us mom's and teachers will probably just remember that we were freezing!!!




Waiting for the train to come.

Hmmmm...What's more intriguing than climbing on rocks where one slip of the foot would find you in the water, swimming in Lake Ontario!

FUN....UNEDITED!

What began as a simple walk around the block became an unforgettable evening of fun.....and mess....this is a case where the pictures speak a thousand words!



















Clean up involved 4 stages:

Stage One
Spray down with the hose....clothes off......in the pail for a quick rinse

Stage Two

In the kids bathtub with the shower running and the bath filling...


Stage Three
Into mom and dad's bathroom for clean water and serious hair shampooing...



Stage Four

Wash....Wash again.....and wash again....
