LPS thanksgiving feast

so clearly i am a little behind on some of my posts but i was busy enjoying the thanksgiving festivities and hanging out with our family.   the week before thanksgiving samuel's school had a feast and a little program.  samuel decided he didn't really want to sing.  (his teacher told me after the performance that he was almost in tears when she told them to sing loudly.  this is funny because he is such a little ham at home)  it was a sweet little program and feast.

samuel's class visits the fire station

samuel's class at school visited fire station #2.  since grandaddy used to work at station #2 we invited him to join us!  it was fun for the kids to see the truck, tour the station and talk to the firemen.  of course when your grandaddy is a retired firemen samuel has done this all before (a couple of times) but i think samuel understood a lot more since he's four and the firemen talked to them about fire safety at home.  benjamin joined too!

rodeo round-up...from april :)

samuel's school, little peoples school, had rodeo round-up in april...for some reason i am just now getting these up! it is a precious day consisting of a western-themed performance, pictures, blow-up slides, books by the campfire, horse rides and a petting zoo. (i only got a few pics)

a mini-photoshoot with the sheriff...

a couple of family pics after his performance (which this time he didn't really sing or do the moves...i guess he was embarrassed...i think kyle got video and if so i'll try to post it)
