Ashlyn’s teddy bear picnic

4.30.10

It was the Kindergarten Center’s Teddy Bear Picnic day today–kids brought their favorite bear, sang some bear songs, watched a very silly bear skit, and enjoyed a real deal teddy bear picnic. As you can see from the picture, Drew really wanted to be part of the action. That’s him, about 6 feet in front of the front row, inching closer and closer to the stage. Pardon the heads in the picture–I was the crazy mom standing up with my big Canon still camera, a handycam, and a toddler on my hip. I’m the woman I have made fun of in the past.

After the picnic, the kids enjoyed some playground time before they went back inside for some more bear fun.

I love this impromptu shot of my girls’ hands. It warms my heart.

    Love the last shot! I have one like that of Nathan and Kaitlyn and it’s one of my favorites. The teddy bear picnic is cute. Kaitlyn remembered seeing Nathan’s so she was pretty excited about it. Saw Ashlyn at the zoo a couple times today. They’ve sure had a fun couple of days!

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
