On Thursday, Aly had a big day. For pre-school graduation she asked if she could get her ears pierced so before school we headed over to Sassy and Sweet and got them done. Aly was a real trooper...she initially wanted pink heart earrings but they did not have any so she settled on pink flowers. She cried for just a bit but I think that was only due to being scared. She looks super grown up with her earrings!
That afternoon the fam including Adrienne's parents and Mike (Kevin's dad) had a picnic with Aly's class. The kids had a great time eating lunch and being able to run around! We then headed in for a little graduation ceremony. Each child was able to tell everyone what they wanted to be when they grew up...Aly would like to be a teacher...then they sang a couple songs, recited a poem and the teacher shared a little something about each child. It was so cute and Aly was able to have her Grampy and Grammy Davis, Grandpa Mike and Grandma Lisa, Great Grandma Joanne and Great Grandpa Burt there to celebrate her special day. We missed her Grandma Paula and Papa!! The day ended with mom and dad having to head to a meeting and Grammy and Grampy taking Aly for Chinese.
The rest of the weekend unfortunately went way to fast. We were able to spend some great time with Adrienne's parents. We went to Castlewood Canyon for a short hike, looked at possible areas for Adrienne's parents to move back to, went to the Plains Conservation Center to feed the cows and chickens and take a wagon ride, saw Night at the Museum 2, checked out the camp grounds at Cherry Creek, BBQ'd, shopped and purchased Aly a fish for her room. Yes we have a new family member...Lilo Isabell Kallas, the beta fish!
