Father's Day at Morton Arboretum

Even though it was in the high 90s throughout Father's Day weekend, we had a BLAST at Morton Arboretum.  It has an awesome maze you can go through.  The kids were able to keep themselves cool by getting drenched at the water pump and wading in the Wonder Pond.  Then they tore up the tree house exhibit before we headed home.  It was our first time at the Arb and it is now one of our favorite spots!

Happy Father's Day to the best dad any kid could hope for!

Last Day of Pre-K 3

Finn's last day of 3 year old preschool was May 31.  I got to be a part of it because I volunteered to help plan the end-of-the-year party.  It was a bit of a bummer because we had hoped to just take the kids to the park for 2 hours and give them a snack, but it ended up being a cold, drizzly day.  So instead, the kids played freeze dance, colored, ate snack, blew bubbles and played ring toss in the class room.  They didn't seem to mind staying inside one bit.  Finn had such a great first year of school - made some great friends, loved his teachers, really improved on writing his name and drawing, learned all about authors and illustrators, grew a bean stalk, and watched a caterpillar turn into a butterfly - that I'm already excited for the fall and pre-k 4!
