Taylors Every Day - Week 20

Monday 
Ella's class took a field trip to ride the train
Playing in the sand waiting for their turn 
Lined up and ready with her class 
These girls told us that "they were going to ride together in the back and us mamas could sit in the front".  Really?  How old are they? 
So I rode with Claire since Ella didn't want to ride with me! 
I'd say they had fun! 
Caleb came home from school and crashed!  I was worried he was sick but he told me the next day he just had a headache and was tired and "that all my plans wore him out!"  Ha! 
Ella's last tumbling class of the year
 
Tuesday
Ella and I had to get a few teacher gift cards so we decided to have a bagel at Panera while we were there :) 
Caleb after school with the hearts he purchased to help with research at the American Heart Association 
 
Wednesday
The youth are always looking for a time to play Capture the Flag.
Wednesday before church they had time for a few games.
Caleb loves it as much as the big kids.  I love how they include him!  He even got to be team captain this week!
 
Thursday 
Ella's last day of preschool in the 3 year old class
I just love this big girl!
I went to school to help with her End of Year Party and they were lining up and heading to the bathroom - waving as she went by! 
With the girls in her class - waiting to party! 
Ella and Haley with her sweet teahers, Mrs. Lovie and Mrs. Barbara 
Ice Cream Sundaes 
Caleb came home with a headache and crashed again.
The testing this week is getting the best of him! 
Dinner at Olive Garden with these girls to celebrate Baby Williams arriving in July!
 
Friday 
Me and Ella got packed up for the lake.
Here she is packed and ready - baby dolls and lunch box full of snacks.
What more does a girl need?
