Lots Going On, But All Good News!!

The elementary school here is 50 years old, so we spent the other day at a carnival and a program where Katie's class (along with all the others) sang. She did really well at singing and dancing. It was quite fun.

Meghan had her first shot and singing that day too. It was a kind of practice recital for her. She sang on stage with the microphone for the first time. She did really well. The problems came with the sound system. They had to move everything from outside--inside at the last minute because of rain so they had some issues with feedback and the disk was skipping. Oh, well. Her real recital is next Friday so hopefully it will go better.

Katie finished up baseball today--it rained--again. So we just had the awards ceremony.

Meghan had her preschool graduation today. It was really cute--they had mortarboards, sang a little song about finishing preschool and going to Kindergarten, they each read a paper and showed a picture about what they will do in Kindergarten (Meghan will read books), then they got a diploma and had snacks. Fun!!

The final thing is that there was a big meeting on post today and the dates are finally out for the return of our soldiers. Only 2 months to go!!! We are all very happy to be able to begin the actual countdown!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!
