Tennis, Cows, and Graduation

I have spent the last two days trying to get my pictures downloaded off my camera and I am having no luck. I think we have a bad USB port, so I guess I will blog about recent events and put pictures on later. Last weekend we went to Great Falls to watch Reid play tennis. The weather wasn't the most cooperative, but by Saturday's match the sun came out and we were able to sit outside and watch rather than watching from our van. We stayed at the McCafferty ranch in Belt on Friday night. Pason got to help feed baby calves and ride the tractor with Uncle John. He even got to name a calf. At first he wanted to name it Maggie after Grandpa and Grandma Rowan's late dog, but when he was told it was a boy he decided on Ace. Today we had Pason's preschool graduation. The kids walked in one at a time and handed their mother a rose and gave a hug and kiss before taking their seat. Then they said the pledge, sang a few songs, and individually answered a few questions, like how to spell their name, what their talent is, and what they want to be when they grow up. Pason did a somersault for his talent, and of course told everyone that he wants to be a garbage truck driver! At the end they threw their hats in the air. This preschool worked out so well. Unfortunately half of the kids are going to kindergarten next year and I don't think it's going to work to do the same thing next year. We'll have to figure something out, I don't think we can afford $95 a month for real preschool! Especially when he's smart enough that he really doesn't need it.
