A Parade & A Layout...

It has been one of those weeks that I just can't seem to do get anything done... except school things!!! Yes, Rainee is STILL IN SCHOOL... but this is the last week and it's been crazy-busy and fun fun fun!!! And everyday this week I've been at school helping with something... and today is no different.... Today is their End of the Year Awards Assembly and Kindergarten show. I for one will be missing this Teacher and this class... it has been a wonderful time... couldn't have asked for a better experience for her Kindergarten year.... Truly thankful!!!

So here's the 'Teddy Bear Parade'... all week the kids have been able to bring a favorite stuffed animal to school and share it with the class... and the parents came to help decorate the parade floats. This is Rainee's... She brought her newest doggie... Maxie Puppy for the parade.... a black lab, just like the real one our cousins, Gary & Patti, have in South Dakota.... She has the best time decorating her float.... and it was such a blast walking around the school with the kids and their animals... it's been a full fun week... and I'm loving every moment!!!






Just love the parade wave... too sweet!!!
















I also thought I'd share a layout I did on Saturday at our Scrap-nite.... I love how it turned out! My friend Jane gave the is fun printed acetate.... and I used a photo from my week in the life photos for it... I love this photo, because this is what life is for me right now... walking Rainee "Hand In Hand" to and from school... God really has been good to us... I would have missed this moment and so much more if I'd still been working... so this for me is more than just a memory... it's been a blessing!!! Totally and completely!

I'll try to post some more tomorrow... but like I said it's been a super crazy-busy week here.... Hope you have a lovely day... and enjoy the moments.

P.S. If you look real close on the first photo, you'll notice Rainee lost her first tooth... so she has a new... adorable smile!

This is so sweet; I too am a stay at home mom and I am truly thankful for it everyday. My daughter is still just a baby but I know as the days and years go by I will only be more grateful for being able to stay at home with my girl! I love your layout too, really cute! TFS

Such sweet memories of all the end of school FUN! Love seeing Rainee with a missing tooth! I'm getting used to seeing Bryn without her braces right now. Seems so grown up! :-(

The LO is so ADORABLE too. Love photos of holding hands... especially of moms & daughters!

Hugs...

Love Rainee's Maxie puppy, the parade looks like fun. Tell her the real Maxie misses her still.
