Grandparent's Day 2013

I have fallen behind on my posts and so hopefully I'll get caught up pretty soon!  Between the mounds of laundry piling up, work, meals, groceries and everything in between, it's hard to find the time to do just about anything extra!

Grandparent's Day at Regents is a really big deal.  It's so important to honor our legacies and Regents makes it a special day just for them, which I think is awesome.

Grandma Mary, Grandma Debbie and Big Pa came to share the special day with Kylie! 

The 2nd grade studies Texas History all throughout the year, so they did the cutest performance about the ABC's of Texas history.  Kylie had about three speaking parts and she was amazing!  She has so much performance ability and it seems to come naturally to her.  There might be some drama and musical theater in her future maybe?

She enjoyed sharing her classroom and art projects to them.  We did our family project on the sweet Mourning Dove who had her babies in our playscape.  We took pictures from the time she laid her eggs to the time they took off on their own.  They were so sweet:)

How cute are they?

 

After Grandparent's Day we took Kylie for a special lunch at Joe's Crab Shack.  That girl loves her some crab - she did not get this from me (yuck).  I'm the one who orders chicken at a seafood restaurant.

 

It was a great day to honor the people we so dearly love.  We are incredibly blessed beyond measure to have them so close to home.  It has made a HUGE impact on my children and I will forever be grateful!

Sweet Mrs. Crowell and Kylie

Lucky Girl!
