Abbie's first grade class put on a series of puppet shows yesterday for all of the parents. It was one of the cutest things I have every seen (I may be slightly biased because Abbie was one of the stars). Each kid in the class had to make a specific character puppet for the story in their show. Abbie was one of the three little pigs. Unfortunately she played the pig that had no common sense and made her house of straw. Oh well, at least the puppet was dressed well! And each kid also had a speaking part of a different character so Abbie played the voice of the puppet Christopher Robbin. So cute and so fun! Below are pictures of all of the puppets that were made with special emphasis on our star puppet...
After the puppet show, we went back to the classroom and watched a video of the kids of their first grade year. Talk about a boob!! I was getting all choked up and teary-eyed over a picture slide show. I didn't know Shirlee's genes leaked over by marriage! It was really fun to see all of the things Abbie has done this year and how much she has grown. I knew once we reached elementary school life would just fly by.
In other news, Happy Birthday to Blake yesterday!! I love you and I'm totally glad you were born!

Yay! Another post and I finally beat Barbie to be the first one to leave a comment!
I love Abbie's puppet. I can't believe how much more grown up she looks since I saw her last. I hate being so far from you guys. September is too far from now. We need to look into coming out there. I need a Rio fix.
I owe you a call back. I suck, I know.
Love you guys!
Amazing puppet! Yes, the theatre genes are screaming through. I can buy you some Shirlee sunglasses to cover those tears if you want!
I'm really impressed with a few things...

- Abbie is growing so much, hard to believe our babies are going to be in 2nd grade!
