The Last Hoorah

Today was the end of the year Kindergarten party. They had a jumpy, bubbles, chalk, crafts, water games, a parachute, and nachos. Mrs.Burton made some really cute keepsakes for them (and the mommies) and had a special slide show from the whole year. The kids had an absolute blast!DSC03082 DSC03090 The Girls : )

Graduation Day

This day snuck up on me WAY to fast! I was so choked up all morning on the way to drop Raelee off at school. I can’t believe I was just dropping her off for her first day, and today she is graduating Kindergarten. I feel like I will blink and she will be graduating high school. She has grown up so fast right before my eyes. It is amazing the sweet friends she has made, and the love she has for her precious teacher. We couldn’t have asked for a better year. Her graduation ceremony was so sweet. She was such a little lady singing all the songs, and the cutest little motions. Of course they played a slide show and made all of the parents boo hoo!

p.s…Colton played with my camera and the settings were messed up. The pics look a little fuzzy : (

Raelee, words can not tell you how incredibly proud we are. You walked in the first day so brave, and never looked back. You made many new friends, and some very special memories. You are becoming such a little lady with such love for life. We look forward to seeing all the great things you do. WE LOVE YOU!

Fun With The Cousins

Teresa and Harlan came in town for Papaw’s party, and were here for a couple of days, so they came over mom and dad’s for some fun in the sun. Colton and Harlan had so much fun playing together. We miss these cousins sooo much, and hope to get them back here one day ; )DSC03005 DSC03012 DSC03014 Roxie is the lifeguard.

Happy 80th Birthday Papaw

We had a surprise party for my Papaw (my dad’s dad) at Fertitta’s. You can’t go wrong with their famous muffy, mint tea, bread and pastas. Add great friends and family, and you have a fabulous night! Family came in from San Marcos and Nashville. It was so good to see everyone, and the cousins had a blast playing. Happy 8oth Papaw! Not many people would believe you were 80yrs old if they saw you swim those laps in the pool, and play all those rounds of golf. Hope you had a wonderful night : )DSC02967 DSC02969 DSC02977 DSC02979 DSC02982 DSC02989 DSC02993 DSC02994 The fabulous five!DSC03002 Saying goodbyes : (

Another Day At The Ball Field

Daddy has missed a few games while he was at work, so Raelee was thrilled for him to be here. She was even more excited that he coached 1st base! She got some good pep talks (and a couple kisses) while running the bases : )DSC02911 DSC02914 DSC02913 DSC02915 DSC02916

Field Trip To Hidden Oak Farm

This was Raelee’s last field trip for Kindergarten…sniff sniff. Mom came along and we brought Colton. All of the kids were so good and so well behaved. They had so much fun riding the moo moo-choo choo, feeding the animals, having a picnic, and playing on the playground. Colton got really tired and wouldn’t stay out of the mud, so Super-Grandmother took him home for a nap, and I rode the bus back with Raelee. She was super excited about that!DSC02876 DSC02874 Of course, Colton HAD to ride with Jenni : )DSC02882 DSC02886 What an awesome group of kids!DSC02885 DSC02896 DSC02898 DSC02900 DSC02903 DSC02907
