PreSchool Graduation pictures
I can't believe I forgot to add the pictures from DJ's preschool graduation to my last blog post.
PreSchool Graduation
I realize this is really late in being posted, but I figure better late than never. It took me awhile to compile all of the video clips.
On May 24, both DJ and his daycare girlfriend, Grace, graduated from St. Paul's Lutheran PreSchool to move on to Kindergarten.
There were two classes of preschoolers --- the morning 4's and afternoon 4's. DJ and Grace were in the afternoon 4's together with 10 other children and 2 teachers. It was a nice sized class.
The service started with a procession, then the kids sang 2 songs. At that point, the director of the school gave a few words. Then the kids sang 4 more songs. The pastor of the church gave a few words, too, and then each child said what they liked the most about school. They processed out, and lots of yummy goodies were served!
And without further ado, here is the video!! The link to it is here: http://youtu.be/e2mxA7MMQps. Be aware, this video is approximately 10 minutes long, and I'm going to apologize for my horrible camera skills... it was hard to hold the camera still when having to hold it high above my head to not be blocked by others.
Happy Graduation, DJ and Grace!

DJ's last day of T-ball
T-ball season came and is already over!
Although I can't say that he LOVED it and can't wait to play again next year, I know he learned a lot! He never did give up playing with the infield dirt; he just couldn't help himself. But, his hitting was better, he learned how to run the bases in the right order, he can throw much better, and he can now field grounders!
In his last "game", the coaches decided it would be the Carroll Manor Orioles vs. their parents! The parents were up to bat first, and we were 3 and out! However, we gave anyone who wanted to bat an opportunity, although no runs counted! Therefore, Elektra got her first ever at-bat! She then ran the bases, too!! I guided her to 2nd, 3rd and home, but she did great!
Then the kids got to bat, and go figure, EVERY SINGLE t-ball player hit a HOME RUN!!!! We parents in the field were just a calamity of errors! For example, during DJ's at-bat, you'll see Steve miss catching the ball at 2nd base and "running" to go get the errant ball while DJ comes heading home! If you can't see the video, click here: http://youtu.be/4IC1jvyjfA0
After the game was over, we all went to a local creamery for ice cream, and the coaches handed out trophies and certificates for the kids.
