Reese's Class Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

This week, Reese had her first school field trip to the pumpkin patch in Clanton.  Her class rode the school bus to the pumpkin patch.  It was lots of fun!

Reese Recites Bible Verses A-G

We are so proud of Reese and all that she is learning in Mrs. Branham's K4 class at Briarwood.  In this video, Reese recites all the Bible verses for letters A-G that they have covered so far this year.

You know how much we love a retrospective on our Collier blogs, and the first day of school is certainly no exception to that!

Dying Easter Eggs & School Easter Egg Hunt

Daddy and I always dye and decorate Easter eggs around this time of year. It's so much fun!

On Thursday, we had a picnic lunch outside, then we had our class Easter egg hunt. It was rainy the night before, but I was so happy that it was dry enough for us to hunt eggs outside.

There is candy inside each egg!

Purple - My favorite color!

Our Easter egg hunt bags are like a bunny mask, too!

Blog Backlog: Safari Day at School

A couple weeks ago, we had Safari Day at school. We got to play games and do activities with a safari theme.

Finding little animals hidden in the box with plants and sand
I wore my leopard-print vest and safari hat (also known as a sun hat) for Safari Day.

Mrs. Kristi (my friend Lane's mom) helped us put sand and a pretent lizard in a baggie.
We had a safari snack, too!
Mrs. Connie (my friend Kyle's mom) helped us with our animal tattoos.

I got a giraffe tattoo!

I think Mommy had taken enough pictures of Safari Day - HA!

What a Great Day!

Today was a great day at our house! Mommy and Daddy selected the photograph that will be used to paint my Leon Loard oil painting. They are so happy with the photograph, and we're all looking forward to seeing the final product in 6-8 weeks.

Mommy and Daddy picked the color for Baby Wynn's room. It's a pretty turquoise color (Behr Gem Turquoise), and it'll look so pretty next to the lime green in my room.


Also, Mommy and Daddy received a phone call to confirm that I will be going to Briarwood Christian School in the fall for K-4. I can't wait to find out who my new teacher is!

Music Appreciation Week

It's Music Appreciation Week at my school. Our parents were invited to come to our music class and see what we do with Mrs. Misty each week. I was so happy that Mommy came to watch me. I love music class!

I'm paying attention to Mrs. Misty.

I'm the sleeping person for this song, while my friends tip-toe around me, then wake me up!
