Maddy's (and Kara's) 6th Grade Graduation!

Tonight was Maddy's AC-T graduation!  She is pictured with her BFF Kara.  It was a night where the tears flowed as usual - Mrs. Wenell started it with her touching speech about this class!  Maddy also gave a great speech, and gathered many awards for academics, TAG and Honor Choir; but I think she was most proud of her PERFECT ATTENDANCE AWARD!  She always brags about her "superior immunity" to the rest of us....  She is usually the last one in the family to get sick if she ever does!  :)  Seriously, I was and am very proud of her - I will miss her being with me at AC-T, but I know Mallory will enjoy having her at Sioux-Central and will keep watch over her.  She is already known as Mallory's "Little" (not really) Sis!  Tomorrow is the last day of school!  Looking forward to spending a weekend with my family visiting my sister!  Then on to the BUSY month of June with multiple Softball games and Driver's Ed almost every day!

Family photo

Maddy needed a family photo for a project, so here it is!  We need to do a better one sometime when Max is in a better mood...  :)

Track

Check out Mal's reaction on her face when she heard the news that they won the 1st Alta track meet! Her last meet is on Monday and she has enjoyed running 400s, 200s, and 100s. Go Rebels!

History Day-Mallory

Mallory's group from History Day-they made it to the finals, but not to Nationals. They received a special award also for their agriculture theme also. Congrats!

Ready for Thresherman's!

Max picked out this cowboy hat with his birthday money-goes with his new boots and belt too!

Max is 4!

Max enjoyed his birthday party and all his gifts!  But I think he liked playing with cousin Esther and his new RED wagon the best!

History Day - Maddy

Here are the 6th Graders who participated in History Day in the Group Performance Category - they performed well for their first time and we are proud of them!

Honor Choir

Maddy and friends attending Honor Choir in Spirit Lake.  The piano they are leaning against is one of Elton John's from his "Red Piano Tour".  They sounded wonderful!

History Day Weekend!

The final busy month of school has begun! We had Mallory's BIC graduation last weekend and now we are in Des Moines for Mallory and Maddy's History Competition tomorrow. We are waiting for our food in yummy Baker's Square - the girls are picking out their pie for dessert! Pray for Max and the girls-he started vomiting this morning (Kayla had it last week!).
