Registration for pre-k

This morning registration opened for preschool and pre-k classes for the Fall in our Parks and Rec area. Registration was due to open online at 7am. Lloyd went to work nice and early as he often does and so he was going to register Sam at 7am for me. I knew spaces would fill early for the class I wanted. there were only 20 spaces in this class, so I told him to check everything was ok nice and early - so he went online at 6:45am to check the Click-it account was ok.

At 6:45am (15 minutes before registration was due to begin, he checked and there were only 6 - yes SIX spaces left!!!!! OMG!!!! They had already started registration!!!! So he went ahead and registered!!! Thank GOODNESS we did not wait around and wait for 7am to check! OMG people do NOT hang around!!!!!

Now I know we get first refusal for a place for Sam in January and after Easter, but for Fall its a fresh start and I really wanted him in THIS class on THESE days at THIS location!!!

I'm happy he got his place in Pre-k anyway :) Yay!!! :) 2 afternoons a week just for ME :)

Workshops over for the summer....

Today we had our last workshop for the summer at the library - yesterday Susie had 'Grossology' and she also finished the Summer reading game and got to look inside the rocket. She won a prize from the prize box and also a book - she chose one for her brother Laurence - a Doctor Who novel!!! He was thrilled :) Susie has her name up on the wall (see pic above!)

Today Abby had a workshop called 'Alien Adventure' and she got to make a space ship with an alien on it and have a snack and story and lots of fun! She also handed in her completed dragon - with all 24 scales coloured in (one for every book she has read this Summer) so she has her name up on the wall and is entered to win a librarian to come to read to her class in the Fall! (see pic above)

We went for ice creams today too and also went to Michaels to buy Susie a scrapbook album for her layouts she has been making lately.

Pictures aren't great because I took them with my cell phone!

For Cheerios!

This is the card I made for Lloyd a few years ago when he went for the 'snip' :)
