On Thursday we celebrated Talor's birthday and Thanksgiving at the same time. Nana provided the Ben 10 ice cream cake and we ate that (with pumpkin pie) after going through all of the Thanksgiving staples. Talor was spoiled by everyone and had a VERY good time. Thanks everyone!
Earlier in the day I was able to sneak away from school to celebrate Talor's "graduation" from kindy. Talor and Layla didn't realize I was coming, so it was pretty neat to see their surprised reaction. I had all the kids mezmerized when I moved my car forward a few inches and even got a hand held usher as I looked for Talor. I played hide and seek with the kids and had a ball!
In order to prepare for "graduation," Talor had some work to do. He made his crown, decorated the cover of his birthday card from the kindy, and made a playdough cake. When the big time finally arrived he sat in the birthday chair, after being able to ring the bell for mat time, and was spoiled. They went through his time at kindy, looked at his portfolio and artwork and told some stories. There were lots of songs and then Talor handed out fruit to all the other kids. He had a blast, and I was so happy that Shell, Layla and I were able to be there to celebrate it with him. Now off to "big boy" school at the start of next year.
The day before Talor's birthday Shell took the kids, with lots of their friends, to the zoo for the day. Miss Julie painted all the kids faces (they looked AMAZING, I think) and everyone had a ball. They always love the zoo, but even more when they get to hang out with their friends at the same time.
