School and Scouts

Over the next few months we had a lot of school programs and scout advancements.  To start, Morgan had her state program and she chose to do her project on Wisconsin, like McKenzie did.  We love the Badger state.

 Masie trying to join in on the singing.

 Next was Malia's patriotic program.  She's the one leaning back on the step.

 She was chosen to do the dance part of the program, I may or may not download it, we'll see how ambitious I am.  The cast she is wearing happened about a week before the program.  She was playing at McKenzie's best friends house with her little brother.  While they were on the see-saw, she was bounced up too hard and when she came down to catch herself on the handle, her wrist buckled and fractured.  Luckily it was a quick heal, she only had to wear the cast for 3 weeks, and oh man, did she love the attention.  We felt really bad for the friends family though, they felt so bad that it had happened and even got Malia a present as a peace offering.  It was an accident, and let's be honest, Malia is a clutz :)

 McKenzie had two more concerts on the docket before school was out.  This one was the spring concert at Mt. View High School.  They combined a few schools together for a huge concert.  It was pretty cool. 

This was last concert of the year.  They have improved so much.  I love kids learning music.

 Morgan had her shot at Rad Kids.

Then it was time for Morgan's turn with Hope of America.  I love this program and think it's so neat to see these kids get together to honor our nation.  

 Morgan was in the top of the yellow to the right of the flag (not above the flag)

 I seem to remember being very pregnant the last time I went to one of these.  Oh well, I guess it's a tradition now, good thing that was the last one we'll be going to.

Micah's 3rd grade report was the Ocean Ecosystem.  He really liked making the diorama.  We found out that this project was due on my due date so we tried to get it done before then, but we are prcrastinators, I was sick all the time and Randy had been out of town for most of April, so it got done the night before.  But hey, it got done and Micah wrote the paper all by himself.

His program was a couple of weeks later.  They sang songs about what they had learned all year long.

 He wanted to wear his suit for the program, so dapper.

And lastly. . .
 Micah earned his bear with his bud KC.  His mom Kelly kept encouraging me to help him get it done so they could get theirs together.  It was pretty fun to see them up there.

 Micah getting his pin ready to pin on a very pregnant me.

 It was also the pinewood derby and this is the car he made.

 He got 3rd place which was great.  

 And he got the award for the fiercest design :)

All of this fun really wore out this little girl, haha.  Actually this was taken after church.  She has a problem with 1 o`clock church and has been falling asleep in the weirdest places around the house on Sundays.  This was just one of them.

We've had a productive and busy school year.
