Enchanted Forest, 2014

Hinton's last official day of kindergarten was yesterday, but he and his class had an Enchanted Forest field trip this afternoon.

Kindergarten Program

The two kindergarten classes at Hinton's school had their final program this morning.

(Hinton is third from the left, in the back row.)

They sang a bunch of songs.

And then they did their Zumba routine to the song What Does The Fox Say.  

It cracked me up!  You can watch it by clicking HERE.

  

They were presented with their Kindergarten Memory Books after the performance.

Hinton's Kindergarten Memory Book

We also got to take home Hinton's writing journal, which he wrote in once each month throughout the school year. I loved being able to see how much progress he was making month to month.

Last day of Kindergarten!

I can't believe Hinton's last day of Kindergarten is already here!

If you look at the lines on the door behind him, 

you can see how much he's grown in the past year.

Wiped Out

This was Kason and Hinton on the drive home from Sutherlin this afternoon.

Chocolate Milkshake

We ran a bunch of errands this afternoon, and the boys were really good sports, so I told them we could stop for ice cream on the way home.  I think it was the first time they had ever had a chocolate milkshake.

Can you tell they liked it?!

Kindergarten Dairy Fieldtrip

This morning both kindergarten classes took a trip to the Rickreall Dairy.  Jaxx came with us.

Jaxx enjoyed feeding the calf. 
Hinton couldn't be convinced to get close enough to even try.

Toddler Time Art

Toddler Time is now over for Kason.  I didn't take any photos the last day, but I decided it was time to photograph some of his art before it makes its way to the recycle bin.

Mother's Day Gift

This beautiful butterfly/hand print flower pot was Hinton's Mother's Day gift to me. 
He made it at school.

Rolston.

I love that he put his last name on the card. Wouldn't want to confuse him with any other Hinton's who might be giving me a Mother's Day gift.  :-)

Frozen Soundtrack

Like every kid in America right now, my boys are taken with the Frozen soundtrack, which we borrowed from the library.  Yes, they are singing the lyrics to the songs.  Hinton is getting especially good at them because he reads/sings along as the songs play.  Kason, as you might be able to tell, likes to act them out.
