Halloween

Two ninjas

One Halloween Night

One Halloween Parade 

= a great Halloween.

This year the boys wanted to be ninjas. I normally order their costumes online - but this year the size was off. Andrew and I went to the Spirit store and had a great experience. I think we will go to the actual store next year.

Andrew marched in the city's Halloween parade. The drum line has a banner now!! My friend Laurie McCarty and I paid for it. Drum Line looks legit now.

On Halloween night - Amanda and the girls came to our neighborhood. They invited their friends too so we had a big group. Afterwards our street had a pot luck for dinner. It has become a really sweet time for the boys and our neighborhood.

Start of the summer camps

Both boys went to Starkville this year to spend a week with my parents. They attending the MSU basketball camp. My parents said they enjoyed it.

Andrew also went to Drum camp. Which he really enjoyed. They both also did a camp at Hattiesburg Country Club. I don't think I have any pictures from that camp.

Jump into FIRST grade

Sam's turn for the Jump into First grade party. We hosted along with 10 other families a water jump slide party for our incoming first graders. I am so happy we did this. I think it made them all feel special. And it is a great way to get to know the other families too.

Mother's Day

Mother's Day 2018 will probably be my most favorite Mother's Day EVER!! The boys made me feel like the most special mom and person ever. Andrew's class had a spa day for us. The kids were the ones who painted our nails, head massages, and hand massages. It was the most special day for me. 

Then on Sunday, the boys gave me an award. The "World's Best Mom"....I mean...really...my life is complete. Owen said this was all their idea. He executed it...but they were very sure that this is what they wanted to give me. I LOVE it more than I can ever express. These two sweet boys are my whole world along with their daddy. I am not sure how I got so lucky - but I am.

Start of the Summer 2018

The start of summer started off with a big bang. More pictures of the tree house. The boys went to the VBS at St. Fabian and had a krispy kreme an chucky cheese adventures!! We were very ready for summer this time. The slower pace of life with no homework was music to our ears.

We had Mackenize and Madison Brown (Mrs. Brown's daughters) watch the boys this year. It is a big help to have a babysitter come to the house. The boys can enjoy the down time.
