Santa's Village

The day after Storyland we took the girls to another theme park, Santa Village's!  Really the only major difference is that it rained the whole day.  It actually turned out great because we had the whole park to ourselves.  Ava and Reagan could stay on the ride until they didn't want to ride anymore. Ava's favorite ride of the day was shooting bugs and Reagan liked the peppermint twist.  They got to talk to Rudolph and see all of Santa's reindeer.  Of course we couldn't come to Santa's Village without getting hot chocolate and cookies.  We definitely be back for all the fun maybe for the winter lights.  I know the girls will have a blast once again!

Storyland

Cary and I took the girls up to New Hampshire for some family fun.  Nolan stayed back home with Grandmom.  Our first stop of the trip was Storyland.  A very toned down version of Disney, Ava and Reagan were very excited to say the least.  Our goal was to get as many rides in and I think we conquered it! The park was not crowded so the girls got to ride the rides 2-3 times in a row.  Ava tired everything and I think her smile got bigger and bigger throughout the day.  Reagan seemed to know what she wanted to ride, most things that went around in a circle.  Of course we closed the park down and headed to Dairy Queen for some ice cream.  There were so many memories that were made but the one I hope I never forget is the laughter!

Ava PreK Graduation

Ava is on to Kindergarten!  She had her preschool graduation today and we couldn't be more proud of her.  Cheryl joined us for the big event.  They walked into the church to the graduation march with a bid smile on her face. I just want time to slow down.  Then the entire class sang some songs which was so cute.  After they were done each one got to cross the bridge to Kindergarten.  Of course I shred some tears and I think Cary did too.  Once the ceremony was done they got to go back to class and finish the day.  Ava had a great year with her teachers and friends.  She is definitely going to miss Purpose School, she has learned so much.  

After school we had our traditional ice cream for a great end of the school year.  Ava got to pass on the reigns to Reagan since she will be going to Purpose next year.  Congrats class of 2016!
