Cottonwood Creek


Hello All!

This past month was a fun one!  We had Father's day to celebrate and prepare for and we also had quite a few birthdays in the month of June!  Including my own!  YEA!!!  So first we started to prepare for father's day...we made cards and since the boys and girls in my little lab are so into soccer I figured they caught soccer fever from their homes!  I was right!  The dads from our complex are real soccer fans so we decided to go for a soccer themed card!  It was so cute and appropriate, I heard they were a big success!

Also to go with the card we made a dream catcher to go on the rearview mirror in the dads cars!  It was an easy enough project using pipecleaners, yarn, beads and feathers!  It was easy to make so the kids made two, one for dad and one for themselves!  I actually have seen a few of the parents cars with the dream catchers in their cars!  How cool is that!  It's awesome to see the gifts actually being enjoyed!  Aside from that we are on our regular routine of doing summer activities and trying to stay out of this heat as much as possible!

Trying to remind all the children to stay hydrated and in the shade and just stay cool!  As I mentioned before we had a few birthdays this June including my own :-) so I decided to buy a cake towards the end of the month and do one big celebration for all the birthdays!  We surely did enjoy ourselves!  I hope the rest of the summer is as fun as this past month has been!  I hope everyone is enjoying themselves this awesome time of year! Enjoy summertime!
