April and May seemed to have passed by too quickly. The end of the school year brings lots of activities and with that field trips. Emily's class got to go to the Treehouse museum. They participated in plays and learned all about fairy tales.
Emily was chosen to be the ugly old witch. That is her in the mask.
A Prince was supposed to kiss her and turn her into a princess. The knight (prince) next to her wouldn't even come as close as touching her hand. Luckily there is a lot of magic at the treehouse and Emily reappeared as a beautiful princess without the prince's help.
They worked on crafts and played and played. It was fun to spend the day with Emily and enjoy the Kindergarteners.
Emily and her friend Sarah have a favorite pastime in the spring---collecting worms and rolie polies. They can spend hours digging and looking for the biggest worm. I think it is kind of gross, but it entertains them. 
Tyler also spends hours in the dirt, but he prefers the sand pile with Jordan. They have built tunnels and castles and flooded the area so much there is very little sand left. It is definitely well worth its weight in gold in the amount of entertaining it has provided for the boys in the neighborhood. I don't think we'll ever find all the army guys and tanks buried in it.
