4 Years + 6 months! (June 2019)

Vivien finished up her school year early this month.  Riverview gets out a school before public school, so she was done a couple of days before Ryder, but the same day as Janda and I.  At the end of the year, Riverview has a combined graduation ceremony and field day to close out the year.  Vivi had fun playing games with her classmates and then the teachers give each kid a little gift.  Vivi got a Paw Patrol book with mini figures and she loved it!

We went to Thomasland again this year on Father’s Day weekend.  This year Vivi was tall enough for most of the rides, but not the rollercoaster, which is too bad because I think she would’ve loved it!  She loves all the rides and has almost no fear when it comes to that sort of thing.  I think her favorite part of Thomasland was the bouncy house though; she played in the three story indoor playhouse until we dragged her out.  We had a picnic lunch and the kids had popsicles, so it was an all-around fun day. 

This month we took down the baby swing and hung up the monkey bar attachment on our swingset.  The kids have been doing different tricks on it, but Vivi’s favorite trick is to hang upside down.  Pretty soon she’ll be able to flip over!

Of course, since it’s June we went to Fiesta.  We mostly did the sporting events, because Janda and I both rowed this year.  Vivi is a great cheering squad; I could hear her all the way out by the greasy pole!  Vivi enjoys watching the events, but she enjoys playing by the water at Pavillion beach much more.  She spends most of the time playing in the water and the sand.  We went into the Fiesta briefly on the last night; we figured that they had gotten enough rides at Thomasland!  We let them do a couple of quick rides and get a treat- fried dough.  When Vivi and I were up on the top of the Ferris Wheel, it started to rain and they made us get off, after only one rotation!!  I was disappointed but I’m not sure she even realized that we missed anything.

What a smile!
