Cameron's Preschool Graduation

Cameron's Preschool Graduation Performance:

Best Buddies: Charlie, Cameron, and Blake

To continue on our busy spring topic...On May 11th Mommy and Daddy along with Grandma Judy and Grandpa Al attended the Korea Night program at the adoption agency. We stayed with some really wonderful babysitters and had lots of fun. Mommy's cousin, Laura and her finance, Blake, stayed with us. Korea night began with some yummy Korean food, followed by presentation about Korean culture, foster family experiences, and post adoption scenarios. There was also the opportunity to purchase items from Korea. Mommy bought the book "Count Your Way Through Korea" and "I Wish For You A Beautiful Life".

So grandma and grandpa almost didn't make it to the program that night. They had a flat tire on the way down and then their headlight switched was jambed so the lights wouldn't shut off once they made it to the agency. To top it all off on the way home someone pulled onto the interstate going the wrong way and almost hit them. What a night. Glad they are safe and sound.

Cameron has been very interested in writing his Korean numbers since reading the "Count Your Way Through Korea" book. He is very good at it and loves to practice.

The following day brought Cameron's preschool teacher conferences. It was fun for mommy and daddy to hear about what a wonderful boy Cameron is in class and how well he is doing.

On May 15th, mommy took us along with Charlie to Teddy Bear Park in Stillwater. It was so much fun to play there. We really liked climbing the rock walls and jumping or hiding out in the tree house.

On Saturday, Mommy and Cameron attended the Chang Mi Korean drum and dance performance in White Bear Lake. The clothing was beautiful and the performances were amazing. We both loved the three drum performance. Wow! Cameron picked out a five piece set of metal chopsticks for our family. Metal chopsticks are common in Korea.

May 19th brought Cameron to the dentist again to have his third cavity filled. He did such a wonderful job and it was down so quickly. He also had sealants applied to the two six year old molars he got in recently.

Wednesday, May 20th was Cameron's big preschool graduation day, last day of school, and Charlie's last day with us. So to celebrate mommy took us out to eat at Mansetti's Pizza before school. It was so yummy. At 3 PM Cam's graduation ceremony began. Grandma Judy surprised Cameron by showing up with mommy and Kyle. Hope you enjoy the video of the little performance we did that day and the photo of Cameron with his best buddies. We also wore graduation hats, and received a certificate and goodie bag from the teachers. We topped it off with ice cream and cookies. Can't believe preschool is done and kindergarten is coming up. Mommy said she cried alittle at the graduation.

The following day was so much fun. It was Cameron's end of the year preschool picnic. It was great to play outside for two hours with all his buddies. They had great music that we danced to and lunch was good too. While Cameron was off with his friends Kyle hung out with grandma Judy and mommy and played ball or blew bubbles. Cameron will miss my friends so much.

On Saturday, we went to Uncle Steven and Aunt Angela's house to grill and celebrate Grandpa Al's birthday. Kyle loved playing with their new cat, Bella.

Yesterday we went to Snail Lake Park to meet up with some of our preschool friends. Since it was so cold out we had the whole park to ourselves. We hated to see it end but look forward to next week's playdate.

Sorry for the long post but we have so much going on. Take care.
