Merryhill

We're winding down the school year, getting ready for summer. We intend to let Nate go to Merryhill through the graduation in Mid-June, then pull him out of Pre-school, enjoy a summer vacation before he starts Kindergarten in the fall. Here's his class photo, notice him in the front with the tie on. He insisted on wearing it for picture day.
One of Nate's art projects hanging at school. Boy loves his water.
They had a Trike-A-Thon at the school, where all the kids could bring their bikes and ride around the playground in a circle. Nate, who thinks everyday is share day and loves to bring things to school was super excited to be able to bring his bike to school.
Nate had his training wheels off his bike about a year ago. He's the only one at his school who does NOT have the training wheels on.

While Nate loved riding his bike, he was frustrated that they all moved so slow. It made it difficult for him to stay upright without the training wheels.
The day after the Trike-A-Thon, the school had a carnival fundraiser. Lot's of fun for everyone, especially the kids. There were different "stations" with activities at each. Here, they had splat painting. Stockings were tied to the fence, dipped in paint, pulled back and splatted onto the paper.

They had an obstacle course to help the kids run around.

Nate on to stage 2 of the obstacle course.

Here they planted green beans. Nate adding the soil and water, now time to take the pile of mud home and watch it grow.
Ring toss, over the ostrich head to win a prize.

Of course, every kids favorite, the bounce house.


Finally to wind things down, there was a long line for the face painting.


Nate could have picked anything, but he chose to be spider-man.
