Andrew's Sacred Heart Fall Festival

Andrew's class at Sacred Heart decided to do a fall festival at the park near by. The parents were charged with planning it. Our good friend Mandi was the leader of this and she assigned interested parents a game. We got assigned the bucket toss. Owen made the game. I think he did a fantastic job. After the games the kids had a picnic. It was a really nice day and was so fun being with Andrew and his friends.

Andrew said his favorite game was the bucket toss and the line dancing :)

Birthday party fun - Fire Station

One of Andrew's soccer teammates (and long time friend) Wilkes celebrated his 5th birthday at the fire station. Andrew loved it. He loved the fireman giving his demonstration of the uniform and on fire safety. The party was the same week that Andrew was learning fire safety at school.

This was an all boy party. The second one Andrew has been invited to. I guess this is the stage we are in right now.

Birthday Party Fun - Mary Poppins Style

A good friend of Sam (Caroline) had her 3rd birthday party the other weekend. It was a Mary Poppins party. Everything was so cute. Her mom (Melanie) had a carousel, sketch artist, umbrella decorating and all the food was themed perfectly. The boys had a great time.

Apparently I thought the carousel was really cute because I took a lot of pictures of the boys on the carousel.

It was a really cute party!

What has been going on - Sam Update

 Sam has been a trooper this soccer season. He loves going. He loves practicing with Andrew's team before the game and in between games. This boy is ready for soccer in the spring.

This is a picture Andrew took - Sam does not nap anymore on the weekends. He is too busy. He will  play so hard and then crashes. Luckily for me he cuddles up close and takes a nap with me. I personally love it.

Sam has always loved the cozy coupe. This is his favorite toy. He will spend as much time as you let him outside. He is a great player. He talks to himself in pretend play. He is a special kid.

What has been going on - Andrew Update

Andrew went to a bowling party for a friend of his at school. This was the first time he has bowled. I think he is a natural bowler. He loved it and it was such a great idea for birthday party.

 Andrew asked me to go his school for lunch one day. The parents can sit with their child away from everyone else. Graham sat with us too. It was fun to see them at school. His class has the cutest kids and they seem to all get along very well.

 School picture time!! I love this picture. Is Andrew excited or what???

 Andrew has discovered taking selfies. He now knows how to use my phone camera. He had the best time taking pictures - mainly of himself.

Our favorite team the Mississippi State Bulldogs are #1 in the county for football. WHAT??? I keep thinking it is a dream. I took Andrew to the Auburn game. We had a great time. I love going and visiting with my parents. Adam was even there - a bonus treat. I wanted Andrew to feel the excitement. I wanted to feel the excitement. We bounced and danced and cheered the whole first half. Then it rained and Andrew was ready to leave. We went to Little Ceasers to get a pizza and went to my parents to finish watching the game. Later I asked Andrew what is favorite part of the weekend was...he said getting pizza. I asked him why and he said because it was just you and me. I love him so much!!!
