Finally the autumn is here 😁 love it!

My week has been interesting to say the least, and a bit emotional for me and the kids I work with at my preeschool.
This post will explain why and I am going to take you on a Journey in time between the old preeschool and our new build preeschool where we are now.


2006 was the year I started working in a pavilion preeschool!

That was when the first pavilion was put here and I didn't know then that I would be here for 13 years.

I was excited and there were lots of preperations to be made before we could welcome the kids.

IMG_20191018_195833.jpg

I know most people think that a pavilion is a bad place, but we made the best of it and it was a good place to be and after about a year 1 more pavilion was placed next to ours and then a 3rd one 😁 lol
Lots of kids in a little community but beautiful enviroment and many places to go, so we all loved it here.

Here are the places we go most of the time, this first picture is where the Horses are out in the summer.

This is the park that leads to a nature playground we go to alot, and you can se some of it here but not all of it... Sorry I dont have a better one 😜 lol

IMG_20191018_203930.jpg

We do much with the kids in nature to teach them about growth, to care for all life in nature and animals.
The process of a seed to grow into a plant.

🌱🌷🌱🌻🌱🌹🌱🌹🌱🌻🌱🌷🌱

Here is a picture of a beautiful Apple tree on the playground that we all have seen growing from a little plant 😉👍

And here's my wiew from my break at work this summer sitting outside enoying the heat 😍

IMG_20191018_181103.jpg

This is what it looked like right outside our main door and ramp, also the place we ate when the weather was good.

There has also been some crazy adventures, like when our roof just lifted and decided to take off 🙄😱 that was unexpected and scary!

IMG_20191018_204449.jpg

But the moments that I remember the most are 2 things.
First....

Memory tree!

A tree that was a way to deal with loss of a dear pet.
Every ribbon represented a kids pet that they lost and even I got one for my Elvis 😊🐈

20180410_184107.jpg

The second favorite memory was our popular harvest party that made the Newspaper.
It was such a beautiful day and appriciated by the kids.... And us 😁 lol

IMG_20191018_181559.jpg

These to were both loved and hated by the kids!

IMG_20191018_181455.jpg

IMG_20191018_181757.jpg

IMG_20191018_181638.jpg

Good education to learn different seeds and to try old tools that was used!

IMG_20191018_181718.jpg

Here's the post I made about it back then, incase anyone likes to read it 😉👍

🌱🌷🌱🌻🌱🌹🌱🌹🌱🌻🌱🌷🌱

I feel like I might have gotten a little carried away here, but I worked there for 13 years and have so many memories that I always will carry with me 😍

A summer party with coworkers to say goodbye to our old place!

IMG_20191018_214434.jpg

IMG_20191018_214554.jpg

IMG_20191018_214657.jpg

Lots of goodies and a bit emotional as this is where we spent much time with the kids.

IMG_20191018_214846.jpg

IMG_20191018_214928.jpg

IMG_20191018_215024.jpg

It was a Great evening and many memories was shared. A perfect way to say goodbye!

IMG_20191018_215300.jpg

And the kids were involved to the very end, and last mission was to choose names for 2 of the new sections at the new place.
They had 4 flowers to choose from 😉👍
They did Great...choises were violin and the red clover.

DQmYLe1k3toS4CZ7r4xxwrVJ99ZH2mnWLj8EiDwJKY2ov3a_1680x8400.png

And so today we Witnessed this end of an era together with the kids, mixed emotions for all of us.

And off goes the truck with the pavilions that was our home for many years, and many kids came and left us here... Happy I hope 😍

IMG_20191018_222920.jpg

And today when I drove by the old place, this was the wiew I got.... Empty!

20191017_162635-1.jpg

Wow!!!!! I loved the trip down memory lane with you!!! I was sad to say goodbye too; hehhee that shows that you did a great job leading us through your journey!!!

I don't know why a pavilion is considered bad but I think you did a lovely job making it into day-home for all those children! Hehehe

That party at the end was SOOOO cute! I loved how you made the shovels into dipping spoons hehehehe

The only very sad part is that you can't take the trees with you that you watched grow. Especially the pet tree... That was a special idea!

Good luck in your new place!!! Can't wait to see pictures of your happy face there!!!!

🤗🤗🤗😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️

HEY my Sapphire sis 😘😍❤️
I'm soooooo glad you liked it... Just sorry I made you sad to.... Lol
A pavilion isn't really bad but some People don't think its a place to work, not a real building 😜 lol
But we made it comfteble and cozy so I liked it.

Im so glad you noticed the shovels 😍 it was a Nice touch... Lol
About The trees... They are coming with... They Will take the trees after they are done with it all, and they Will put them at our new place 😉👍 WOOT!

I hope you are having a fantastic weekend my love and I missed you sooo much 🤗😘❤️🌹😍
Miss the Flash... Lol

Who's that hot lady in the white sweatshirt??? LMAO I remember when the roof fell in! Holy crap. Lot of good memories there I imagine. But, on to new exciting things, right? Much love Saffi!

@tipu curate

I don’t know... Can it be young Sass 😜 Lmao
Yes I know you remember the roof, you were my biggest phone victim and support during that time 😍 and some crazy roommate with bubble gum smash 😂 Hahahaha

Thank you for always being YOU and for always being here 😘😍🤗 Love you witty!

Thank you for the tip 🙏 appriciate it!

Earned and deserved love! OMG the bubble gum lady that snored all like an ogre lmao!

Yupp 😂 Hahahaha... OMG I never heard snores that loud before... But ya she finally woke up 🙈 with gum on her face... Lol
I remember how we laughed and didn't you say I should kick her with The crutch?
But she was to far away so The gum was easier... That was hilarious!
Most of my biggest "moments" there You have been a part of... Lol


Posted via Marlians.com

YA! I was all smack her with the crutch, wake her up so she quit snorin so you could sleep!

What does 'Vallokal' mean?

I remember that 😁 LMAO
Many laughs and Thank you for Keeping me company then 😊
Vallokal means polling, the kids voted on what names they wanted our new preeschool sections to have.
So we made that little polling for them 😉

Ohhhh! Neat way to get them involved with the place!

Yes it was a Great idea and the kids had lots of fun and even today they say... We named 2 of the flowers 😁 lol
Feels good when the kids get to be involved and its the best way to learn.
Only thing NOT so fun about it.... Is that they use the vote cards at Times.
You tell them its time to clean up... The little 3 year olds... I vote NO 😂Hahahaha

What a great post and that must have been so emotional, may you build many knew memories in your new school

Have a great weekend

Wow over a decade in the AMA building it’s certainly gonna be emotional but now you have a future to look forward to 😉. I wish you and the do workers all the best in this period. Great to see you again saffi 💓

These types if post always remind me that the world and life is wver moving. Site bitter sweet moments happen but that just means a new adventure is in store.
Like knights on a quest we must ride on but excitement and new thrills lay only a village away.
The old adventures are still there guiding us and even old friends whisper to us as new skills and friends are found.
Beautiful post and many well wishes as you ride to the next exciting adventure!!

I was practically smiling with a bit of a teary eye 😢 while walking around with you down the memory lane.

Just like the saying 'do not despise the days of little beginning' goes, the pavilion was a great start but progress brings lots of changes with it.

The photos here makes the narrative so life. Errrm, you look too cute in the white shirt too ☺.

I'm jumping off to the link to the other post asap. Have a lovely weekend 😘

Im glad you liked the pictures and that I could take you on my memory lane walk.. Lol

Have a wonderful weekend baby and I love You bunch 🤗❤️😍😘
