We All Scream for Ice Cream!

Happy Friday!

I am so glad that my computer let me
download pictures today!
Woo hoo!

In celebration of the letter Ii,
we had an ICE CREAM PARTY!

At 9:30am.
Nope. There is nothing wrong with that.
lol
The kids could choose between
strawberry, chocolate, or vanilla.
Cone or bowl.

It was YUMMY!

Mmmmmm...

Lane opted for the bowl.....
chocolate ice cream with chocolate syrup.
My kind of snack!
Michele, don't you love his hat placement? ha!

Evan picked all 3 flavors!

Kasen decided on chocolate on a cone.


You should have seen Gavin's face
when he put that cold ice cream in his mouth!

Eli didn't quite know what to think of it either!

They both had it head to toe before they were
finished! So, that makes me think they liked it!

I love fun Fridays!

With Love, Ms Melea

Playing Catch-Up....

Let me tell you, the blog
world has not been nice to me lately.

I couldn't upload a photo to save my life!
It took me FOOOOORRREVER to upload these?!

So here is a few pics from random days
that I wasn't able to post:

Our whole crew one day..

We read this adorable book one day.
Not sure why it is sideways, either.

We did do some work.

We had some DELISH strawberry muffins.

We did our handwriting on dry erase boards!

This is always a nice change to the ol' pencil and paper.

I didn't have enough small dry erase boards,

and I had found a great idea on Pinterest.
You can take your cheap plastic plates
and use them as dry erase boards!
Great idea, huh?

By the way, if you aren't part of the
Pinterest Phenom, DO IT!
Just make sure you have ALL your work done,
AND that you have a couple of
HOURS to kill.
Pshhht..don't we all have some of that?
Not.
But it is still so.much.fun. to look at and "pin" things!
The truth is, my dream date is with
my booty on our couch with my laptop and Pinterest!
With my hubby next to me watching football!

Love this smile:

Go Tead!

Lily was proud of her 8's!

Kasen made an H and an 8!
Great job!
Wait a minute....
H..8
Put it together, it is another way to spell Hate.
Kasen, are you trying to tell me something?
lol.
Nah.
Great job, Kasen!

This little guy just LOVED writing on our boards!


Brayden is working hard!

By the way, Beckett is in the BIG BOY CLASS now!
He has been doing really well, and enjoying himself!

Now, I have pictures from today,
but since it has literally taken me an hour to
upload these pictures, I will not be able to
post them today! I hope to this weekend sometime.

We had a blast today!
I can't wait to show you the pictures!

With Love,
Ms Melea

Baby, Its Cold Outside!

Is it cold enough for ya?
Man oh man, is it cold!
A little bit of a change from last week's
PICNIC posts, huh?
Oh well, it was bound to happen.
Winter was going to find us sooner or later!

I'll tell you what, I am SOOO ready to
stop COUGHING!
Grrr.
I haven't had a good night's sleep in 3 nights.
I am miserable.
I'm thinking me and NyQuil have a date tonight.
So, those of you who get here early
in the mornings, if I'm not here
by 7:15, you may need to come to my
house and get my NyQuil booty outta bed!
Im not joking.
lol.

Since I am a little under-the-weather,
we had a pretty low key day.
We read a couple of short books.
One was The Three Billy Goats Gruff,
since goat starts with the letter G.
We then made some little hand puppets
with popsicle sticks.

The kids knew I wasn't feeling well,
so they cooperated pretty well.

They got their work done and then played in
the centers until lunch.

I went in Ms Kathy's room to snap a few photos
of the little guys.
They are so sweet.
Evan, Beckett, and Nevaeh:

Mr. Gavin.

Mr. Eli:

Mr Axton:
I thought these pictures
were hilarious!
This is where he had to be
and it was fine! He liked seeing himself
on the camera!

CHEESE, he says!
He was a tired boy right before lunch.

Mr. Kasen:

Mr. Brayden:

Mr. Roper, who informed me
that he was now "big" because he drank
Root Beer last night. He said, "And I liked it!
Well, actually it tasted like yucky dr pepper, But
Im still big, right, Ms Lea?"
lol
Yes, Roper,
you are a big boy.

Ms. Vivian:

Mr. Lane:

Mr. Hudson:

Mr. Zakary:
Who, I might add, has shown EXCELLENT
sharing and friend skills today!
Way to go, Zakary!
Sweet Lily:

I hope to feel better tomorrow.

With Love,
Ms. Melea

Wonderful Wednesday!

We had a super laid back Wednesday.
This was our crew for today.
This small amount of kids around here is rare!

Some of the kids went to spend some
quality time with their grandparents,
one went to the dentist,
and some are hanging with their moms and dads.

Although it has been more quiet than usual,
we still miss those little guys!

I hope they all are having a blast!

With Love, Ms Melea
