Rodeo Day

The theme for the last month at Kayla's school was the Wild Wild West. They put on a Kindergarten Rodeo last week and I went down to volunteer. They had around 10 different events that the kindies participated in.

Of all the events, this is what I get assigned to...


The Hen House Relay was my specific event. The kids had to scoop up a plastic egg from an upside down bucket with a plastic spoon and bring it to the other side, swap out the egg, carry it back and hand off to the next kid (all without using their hands).

It was okay, but this was not a fun event for the kids since it was hard to do and kind of boring. Other events were things such as, branding iron bandanas (with paint) and bucking broncos (sitting on a ball holding the handle and bouncing).

This is a picture of another event. The kids had slingshots and had to shoot peanuts at targets.


It was a great day. Afterwards, I got to eat lunch with Kayla outside in the courtyard. A beautiful 80 degree Arizona day. :)

Tooth Fairy

Kayla lost her first tooth this weekend! Later that same night the one next to it came out too. Guess it makes sense...her teeth came in two at a time, might as well fall out two at a time! She was so excited because the tooth fairy left her two shiny gold $1 coins (you know the kind the stamp machine at the post office gives you for change)!
