Summer Library Programs

I have been putting off this post b/c I wanted to get all my pictures together. I think some are still missing, but this will have to do. I sign our kids up for the library program every year, but have never in the past got around to making it to any of them. This year, we sign up at 2 different libraries, and made it to a lot of them. It is much more exciting for them now that they are able to read. It was quit a job keeping up with all their books, what they had read, entering them online, remember what goes where, what time and day each program was....but we did pretty good. The kids loved it too.

At the Laman Library, the kids were keeping up with what they had read online. The top readers had a book donated to the library in honor of them, and they have their name inside the book. That was so exciting. You can actually go to the card catalog, type in their name, and the book will come up. How cool! Once I found out the 2 oldest had one, I felt really bad that I hadn't read enough to Rachel through the summer b/c she didn't get one. Now we know for next year.

The kids all got a coupon at the end of the program to get a free kid's meal from Moe's. It is so yummy, and we had a blast eating there.

The Laman library is also beautiful, and has a very relaxing fountain/pond/walkway around it.

Leah always has to sit down and start reading while she waits on everyone else.

A magician came one week, and he was hilarious!

The Kinder's Music group....it was my first time to hear them, and I really enjoyed it.
