Talon's February Photo Diary

Hee-Haw! Riding a donkey during intermission at his school's donkey basketball game. 

Talon's class made dalmatian hats to celebrate 100 days of school!

Did you know that dalmatians can play video games?

Playing sniper from the top of the stairs.  Sometimes he gets sniped back.

Aw, Talon spent a day at my school.  He attended PreK and Kindergarten at my school and I've missed seeing him during the school day.  He had a ball seeing his old friends, helping out with speech therapy and picnicking at my desk.

   

Making hearts with his teacher at the Valentine party.

Happy Valentine's Day, Gram!



Talon's Valentines!   



A mini cake from Apple Hollow-- it is a tradition!

Kindergarten craft gift for dad-- there are Hersey Kisses inside. My gift is a bag of bath salts.

Instead of a party, Talon's class hiked 8 blocks to the Burger Barn for icecream

Talon is the caboose-- a lagging way behind caboose. He said: Oh, my aching feet!

Talon wasn't the only one complaining.

Fortunately, a bus driver spotted the kids trudging into Burger Barn. She took pity and gave the class a ride back to school.

Yum!

Thrifty and Spiffy!

Wonder if this dapper little man made a wrong turn into Walmart?

No matter... he found flowers and candy for his sweetheart... must be a thrifty and spiffy gentleman!

Happy Valentine's Day

Guess what the 5th grade fundraiser was.... Yep, Valentine pictures! My friend Misty aka Laughs With A Small Town Gal
came up with this brilliant idea. She shot all the photos--- edited then printed at Walmart. The parents paid $5 and received a beautiful 5x7 photo. A very successful fundraiser--- don't know the exact total but an early estimate was $1000 and the 5th grade won the fundraiser contest!

Thank you, Misty, for the great photo and for your patience with Talon's fear of slightly wobbly tables.

Dancing Dog!

Talon couldn't get enough of the dancing dog--- Watch the video---Talon shimmies and shakes too. Not his usual exhuberant style but he is trying to copy the dog... cute!

Balloons and Cake!

Thought Talon's two Valentine gifts from the Kindergarten fundraiser were plenty. Then he asked: Am I getting balloons again this year?
So off I go to Apple Hollow to get balloons and and a little cake... Well, it is a tradition... he isn't spoiled...

What a sweet little boy!
What a sweet little cake!
What a sweet duo!

Talon appreciates his cake... he isn't spoiled.

Pre-K Valentine Party!

Check out Pre-K's Valentine sacks bursting at the seams with cards and candy... plus, all the gifts from parents and grandparents. Oh, the anticipation... but the kids waited patiently till the end of the day before going hogwild!

Talon's sack. He said the figure was Daddy. I asked what was on Daddy's head... thinking it might be horns. Talon said: His hair... he doesn't have much hair.

Isn't this cute? One of the Kindergarten classes made and sold a variety of little Valentines as a fundraiser. I bought Talon a couple.

Another cutie! I have a crush on you!

Finally, the party!!

Mmm.... Scrumptious...

Happy Pre-k crew minus a few. Did they leave early or pass out from sugar overdose?

Too funny! This is the Valentine from the teacher. Just what is she trying to say anyway?!

Oh, I get it!
