School Treats!

A healthy snack... watermelon on colourful Popsicle sticks!

Griffin loved bringing in the rainbow fruit treat!

 

Owen brought a bouquet of "It's Great to be 8!" Donut treats for his classmates!

 

I am hoping to make this treat for Owen's last day of school!

 

Teacher Gift Ideas!

Here are some cute Teacher Appreciation gifts I found and love!

 

 I'm making these for all of the EA's I haved worked with this year.  

Simple and cute!

I loved this idea.... Here is my version;

 

 

Owen's Skylander's Birthday Party

 We celebrated Owen's 8th Birthday at a local hotel's indoor water pool and slide and party room.  All though there wasn't as much opportunity to go all out and decorate, I did try to decorate as much as possible and even made the cake!

 Owen's cake was a Portal Master with his Skylander on top!  

(The fondant was heavy and started to slide)

 (This was my design inspiration; http://amyspartyideas.com/2012/06/skylanders-adventure-party-real-parties-ive-styled/)

 Loot Bags filled with treats

A Candy Buffet... always a hit!  The boys played four games and collected eternal power tokens which they used to collect candy at the end of the party!

 

 Owen and his friends spent the first hour in the pool

This is Owen being silly!

 They even spent time in the hot tub!

 One happy little boy!

 

Owen and his buddies!

Griffin Graduates!

 Griffin graduated SK on Friday from Montessori!  

After Griffin received his diploma from his teacher Marcia, 

we spent the morning at his graduation and picnic. 

 Proud Parents!

Griffin made some really good friends at Montessori; Nathan, Brett, and Joey!

 

 As you can see... they are pretty goofy together too!

 

Happy Birthday Owen!

 You probably know the story... Owen has been searching for the Skylander Ninjini for months. I had to resort to the internet and pay more than I should to pull off this surprise for Owen.  Let me know if you think it was worth it?

1.  Opening the present

 2. Starts to realize what it is

 3. Sees Ninjini

4. Jumps for Joy

 5. A happy Birthday Boy!

6.  I would say it's easy to say...

"It's Great to be 8!"

Happy Birthday to one of the two best things that happened in my life!

Love you Owen!

Lucky Boys!

Our Graduate!

 Our little guy is graduating from Senior Kindergarten and boy is he ready to!

Griffin is a smart little cookie!  He loves math, he can add, subtract and even multiply! Although he doesn't like to, he can read!  Griffin picks things up really easily. His favourite activities include experiments, building, and gym!

Welcome to your elementary years Griffin!
