SCHOOLS OUT FOR SUMMER!

The boys and I are all so excited about our summer vacation!  We can't wait to go swimming, have playdates, goto summer movies, have many visits to Wet-N-Wild, sleepovers with cousins, go camping up north, 4th of July at the Wigwam, VBS with friends, sleep in a little, etc.  Since I'm not returning to teaching next year, I'm really looking forward to volunteering in their classrooms!  
This is my wonderful second grade team!  I will miss them all!  I told them that I'd love to sub for them next year.

Brody's Kindergarten Promotion

Brody is a first grader now!!!  We went to his kindergarten promotion ceremony this week and it was adorable!  They sang such cute songs and showed a fantastic slideshow of events.  We were so blessed to have Mrs. Roberts for his teacher.  He's really going to miss her and his kindergarten buddies!

Mrs. Roberts ROCKS!

The cafeteria walls were lined with 7 classes worth of kindergarten silhouettes.

Brody was so happy his Mama & Papa could make it to the ceremony!

We're so proud of our little boy!  We can't believe we have a 1st grader now!

Brody with his pals Noah, Aiden, and Valeria.

Thanks for taking time off of work to come Mimi!

Brody opened up his gift from us when he got home.  I love this look!

He couldn't believe we got him 2 tickets to WWE Smackdown!

Wyatt's Western Program

Yesterday was Wyatt's last day of preschool.  They celebrated by having a Western Program and luncheon.  It was soooo cute!  ALL of Wy's grandparents were able to attend.  Wyatt's already excited about starting preschool at Happy Apple again next year!
Look at my cute cowboy!

Adorable!



Best buds!




Wy with his wonderful teachers!  See you next year Ms. Lindy and Ms. Debbie!!!

Happy Mother's Day Mama!

To celebrate Mother's Day with my family we headed to the bowling alley.  We were so lucky to have my Uncle Ed and his girlfriend Judy (from Florida) join us!  Afterwards, we headed to Mama & Papa's house for dinner.  Fun, fun, fun!
I loved this one of Wy using the ramp!

Eric is SO good at bowling!  I'm not even sure how many strikes he ended up getting!

Natalie helping out Tater Tot!

These two are such buddies!

Woo hoo!  Mama got a STRIKE!

My sweet boys!

These 7 grandchildren love their Mama & Papa more than anything!

Happy Mother's Day to the BEST mom EVER!  We're all so thankful for you!

The whole gang!

I'm so blessed to be the mommy of these two little guys!  Motherhood has been the greatest gift of all for me!  I love you boys!

Happy Mother's Day Mimi!

We went to Mimi's favorite restaurant (CPK) for lunch to celebrate Mother's Day.  After lunch we played video games at Dave and Busters and then painted pottery at As You Wish.  We all had a wonderful day together!
These boys love their Mimi soooo much!

Brody took this picture of Jerry with his mom...great job Brodes!

The boys loved these super heroes that were promoting the comic book store.

Water Day!

Wyatt had "Water Day" at his school last week!  He loved this BIG inflatable slide!  Brody even got in on the action!
Woo hoo!

Wyatt and his best friend Connor.

Once the slide was taken down and the water emptied out, the kids loved splashing in the mud!

Wy was not interested in this craziness, but Brody LOVED it!

Muffins with Mom

Brody's school had a "Muffins with Mom Day" to celebrate Mother's Day.  It was precious!  All of the kids sang sweet songs, participated in center activities, and ate some yummy muffins.  I wouldn't have missed it for the world!

Yummy muffins!

We had the BEST time together!  I love you Brody!
