Last day of Pre-K

Andrews last day of Pre-k was bitter sweet for me. I loved his teacher Mrs. Villarreal. I'm going to miss her. I lingered a little longer than usual when I dropped the boys off. Then picking them up - it was the last car pool day for us. Graham is going to a new school.

I can't believe how much andrew has changed this year.

Sam gets a trophy

Sam's end of the year TOTS program was in May. Sam was looking forward to this because he knew he would get a trophy like his brother did. Sam did great. He knew the routine. Listened to Ms TOTS. And had a fun time. We love his personality so much.

Caroline's birthday

Andrew and Caroline have known each other since mommy and me as babies. Then they went to M&M together. Now they are at sacred heart together. All the kids are impressed she lives on a working farm. For her 5th birthday - she had a farm party at her house. The kids played, saw a mommy cow and her calf, as well as Sam the horse. It was a fun party.

Sacred heart field day 2015

Sacred heart had field day in May. Owen and I volunteered and were assigned the jumpy obstacle course. We didn't get to see Andrew's class until they came to our station. It was fun to see all the kids in the elementary school. Owen and I had fun. He was at the start of the course and had it running in a military way. It was too funny.

Sam at school

Sam's teacher Ms. Claire sent me these pictures of Sam. He is a character. I'm so happy he has a teacher who loves him and watches over him for us.

Summer time play dates

Amanda and I have been getting together with ours kids since Andrew and Brantley were 6 months old. I'm so impressed we have kept these play dates going.

Our neighbor and good friends the Leathers have become weekly impromptu play dates too. Usually on Mondays because that is Breanne's day off. Graham and Andrew are good friends. Sam and Taylor (Graham's youngest sister) have bonded over the summer too. These relationships are priceless.

Mother's Day 2015

Mother's Day this year was perfect. We went to New Orleans on Saturday. We ate at Camilla Grill. It was our first time and we enjoyed it. Rode the trolley to lunch Then we went shopping and Owen bought me a purse I have been wanting for two years. The day could not have gone better.

On Sunday we met up with Owen's family in Jackson and had a picnic lunch. Mick was in physical therapy there so we got to see him. It was good to visit.

Pretty perfect Mother's Day.

Andrew's cheering section

Andrew is so blessed to have good friends who want to watch him play baseball. Love these little girls and the friendships they have with andrew.

Pre-K farm festival

Andrew's pre-k class had a farm festival. The students made their own farm animal. The animals were judged. They also played festival games with their 6th grade buddies. It was too cute. I volunteered and helped with a hoola hoop toss game.
