Spring 2012 and end of school year fun!

Payton is now a second grader!  The end of the school year is always busy with fun end of year activities.  This year we had a huge fundraiser that I volunteered on, for the school and it was a family walk a thon and silent auction.  It was a huge success and I think the families ha d a good time.  The end of the year also brought Grandparents day and the book fair.  So grandma got to go and have lunch with Payton and then he talked her into getting him some more books.  He is a pretty good negotiator like that!  The last week of school is filled with awards ceremonies, field days and last day of school parties!  Not sure much learning gets done that week!  (Or work for that matter as parents go to a lot of these activites!!)
Spring also brought on another season of soccer.  Paytons team went undefeated this year!  He played the same league that he did for football and really enjoyed it.  He has improved a lot the last year or so.  As soon as soccer was over, he started tennis, which runs pretty much up until football season.  So, there go all of our weekends until about November!   He is still doing swimming weekly and loves it.  It is the one sport that he would do all day, everyday if you let him.  I probably need to start looking into swim teams, but there is a much larger time commitment and I am just not sure if we (meaning me) is ready for all of that yet!
