where did april go?

we are well into may and my head is still in april.  i didn't realize it until i downloaded some photos i took at drew's track meet last week into april's folder.  after i closed the folder i thought- wait a minute!  it's may!  we had so many soccer games and track meets and other events inside of april, you'd think i couldn't wait for it to be may- i am soooo looking forward to school being over next month, i am definitely ready for june!
here's an april recap:

in california, every 4th grader has to learn about missions.  here, keith is explaining how missions were built.

  keith's school made up their own mission and gave us a tour.
