Playing Catch Up.

We have had a pretty wonderful week so far!
My free time has been ZERO this week,
so my blogging has suffered.
I do manage to take pictures 
of these sweet guys though!

Monday we introduced the Letter C and #3.

Our morning circle time consisted of 
a friendly reminder chat of taking care
of our things. Toys,
books, and even our bodies need to be cared for.
If not, they become broken.
A little chat turned into a story telling marathon.
You can imagine with little ones,
and that is just fine.
I enjoy having those mornings every once 
and awhile. 
But they have taken our chat and have used it.
That makes me proud.
Putting books on the shelf correctly,
washing their hands,
and even drinking LOTS of water!


The UPS man dropped off a wonderful surprise 
on Monday, as well!
My Aunt Donna sent the kids and I 
a special box FULL of awesome craft supplies!
How GREAT is that??
I am very blessed with wonderful family!
The kids thought it was Christmas!
Gavin made sure everyone knew that
the box was from HIS Aunt Donna.
Lol.
I already called her, 
but I know she reads the blog, as well.
So, THANK YOU AUNT DONNA!
WE LOVE YOU AND CANNOT WAIT
TO USE OUR NEW STUFF!!!!


On Tuesday,
we decided to do some handwriting outside. 

The BIG dry erase board is always
a treat for our handwriting days!


Then we enjoyed the beautiful sunshine!






Today, we read 
The Very Hungry Caterpillar
for the letter C,
and made our very own caterpillars!


Alot of you have asked about my little 
girl's trip I went on with a few of my BFF's.
We had a wonderful time.
This was our 4th year to go
and look forward to MANY more.
I am so ready to go back. 



Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will
make your paths straight.

What a week!

What a crazy week!
I feel like I have met myself
coming and going!

Monday, we painted our pumpkins!
We still have 4 kiddos that need to paint theirs!
We will make sure and get theirs done by next week!

I think they had a great time decorating
and making each pumpkin their own.













We had a new treat!
I decided to let the kids play in the finger paint.
I thought this would be a great way to practice 
writing their letter Bb and #2!
Plus, I may or may not have picked up 
the wrong type of ink for my printer.
This makes it hard to have my worksheets 
ready for the kiddos.
I dont think they minded!
Yes, there was paint EVERYWHERE!
That's why preschool is SO fun!








Today, Ms Yvonne came to see us
and we got to have some great time outside 
before the rain started.

This will be my last post this week
because I am headed with some of my 
girlfriends to the beach!
Woot.
We go every year and love every second.
We do NOTHING.
Something I am not used to!
Enjoy your week!
With Love, 
Mrs. Melea

Last Day of Summer? Say it Ain't So!

Hello!
It's us again!
 
I wanted to brag about the book I
FINALLY purchased!
I have been wanting this book written
by the Pioneer Woman,
Ree Drummond..
It even came with the CD that SHE
narrates herself about her dog, Charlie!
It is an adorable book.
It makes me want to write a series on
our very own, Shasta!
Hmm. Something to think about.
Ms Yvonne decided to stay in where it
was dry this morning, so
we had to change our plans a bit!
We decided to practice our letter
 Aa and number 1 using
SHAVING CREAM
again! So fun!



 
Gavin asked everyone if they knew who
"Daniel Son" was,
"you know, from Karate Kid"
Lol.
He showed us some of Daniel Son's moves
in the shave cream.
Hiiiii Yaaa!









 
We decided to do the shaving cream in our
bathing suits because I figured it would
be easier to clean up outside with the hose
rather than in the kitchen sink.
I told the kids that God gave us a treat today!
He turned on his sprinkler!
They loved playing in the rain!
Plus, I am thinking today might be our last hot day!
I am looking forward to some cooler temps!
 
 
 
Adria didn't last too long.
She was a little chilly.
She sat under the covered porch with me!

 
Then Eli joined us for a bit, as well.
Sweet kiddos. 

 
I am feeling better, for those that have asked.
I took a Benadryl last night and caught a
few needed ZZZZZZ's.
I'm not at 100%,
but not much can keep me down!
 
Have a splendid afternoon!
 
And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.
God is love...
