End of the School Year

Fairyland field trip for Hannah's preschool class!

We celebrated the last day of school with a movie night.

Hannah's Preschool Graduation

We were so blessed to get the kids into A Kid's Kingdom Preschool.  By the time we found out we'd be moving to Castro Valley, preschool spots in the area had long been filled.  There were waitlists most everywhere and I needed three spots-two of them being in one class.  A Kid's Kingdom had been where Jacob went to preschool and Kris could vouch that they were wonderful. I spoke with the director, Teacher Lilia, who couldn't have been kinder. and she let me know that they didn't have room for all the kids.  She put me on the waiting list and said that plans sometimes change over the summer months and she would be in touch closer to when school started.  She called late in the summer to confirm that space had opened up for all the kids.  Oh, the happy tears I cried!  God is so good!

Stanford 1 year Reunion

The Premraj family traveled from Australia to come back to Stanford for the 1 year reunion!  They came and had dinner with us and played, what a treat it was!  That weekend was the big event, and, true to form, Stanford Business School went ALL OUT!  My favorite part, though, was reuniting with the other families from our courtyard in our courtyard and searching for the purple sippy cup that one of my kids' remembered burying in the sand when we lived there. :-P

Staci, Bridie, me, Mary Susan, Amanda, & Andrea spent countless hours together sister-wifing it during our year at Stanford.
