School, Soccer and a Concert!

The boys both had school today. It was pretty much my last Tuesday to volunteer in Ian's classroom. I have enjoyed it sooooooooooooooo much! Next Tuesday Gavin has a spring concert in the morning and the following Tuesday Gavin is out of school!!! He actually finishes next Thursday. Wow!!!!

Gavin LOVED his Beach Day at school because they got to do lots of fun stuff outside with water. He was going on and on about that and his excitement level was extremely high! Ian had a soccer game today at 5:45pm and he played great! We had to leave with about 5 minutes left. He changed right in the parking lot into his concert clothes! He went from uniform, cleats and shinguards to a nice shirt, shorts and sneakers. My mom took care of Gavin during the game because Cailean had to work OT and was going to meet us at Kingswood for the concert. We all raced over to Kingswood (and let me tell ya...Ian was NOT happy he had to leave the game!!!!!) and he made it just in time to "report for duty" at 6:45pm. Gavin was such a big help because we had to go from one place to another and he just kept up and listened. I sent Ian up with the kindergarteners and then Gavin and I found some seats. Mom, my grandparents and Cailean arrived all at the same time.

The concert was about to start and I was all set with the video camera. The assistant principal came up to me and said there was an empty seat in the first row and go for it! Thank you Mr. Case!!! Oh yes...best seat in the house! Front and center!!!!

Ian sooooooooooo does not have our shyness when it comes to standing up in front of lots of people. As soon as that curtain was drawn, he was waving to us!!!! He did such an awesome job!!!!!! He smiled, knew all the words and motions and I swear I could hear him!!! GO IAN!!!! He just looked like he was having a blast and he is soooooooooooooooo happy at Kingswood! :) I have the whole thing on tape!!!!!!! Of course no video clips on the camera that connects to our computer though. He was in the back left and just was awesome!!!!!!!!! Wait til you come down and watch it. hee hee

After the concert, we all met outside and Ian went running up to his Mimi, Grammie and Pop-pop! They are troopers for going from one place to another and loving every minute of it!!! Pop-pop loves his routine and set schedule, but tonight there was a bit of a twist! He gave up his Legion meeting to attend the game and concert! :)

On the way home, I told Gavin that he has a spring concert next Tuesday. He looked at Ian and said, "You get to watch mine." Ummm...he doesn't...Ian will be in school during Gavin's!!! Pretty soon Ian will have to start watching Gavin's events...just not that time yet with his age!!
