Pre-K Graduation








I cannot believe it, Luke graduated from Pre-K last night. I am so proud of him. He is the sweetest guy ever. I do have to admit I am anxious about him going to kindergarten, but I know he will be okay. I guess it is just because we keep them under our wing and now we have to let them go. He told me the other day he did not want to graduate because he would not see me all the time. I assurred him I would take him and pick him up, have lunch some time, and volunteer at his school. His response was "You won't be able to come and give me a hug during the day like you do at Mother's Day Out."




He was so cute at graduation. He walked in with one of his good friends that was in his class since he was 2, except this year. Luke had all the same friends until this year. We decided to only send him 2 days, so he moved classes from the kids he had been with the previous 3 years. They did a whole program. Each child had a speaking part. It was very sweet.




I am very proud of my precious Luke. He truly is a gift from God.

Prosperity Place Fun Run












This weekend was a blast. We all participated in a fundraiser for our niece Livia's school...Prosperity Place. It is a school where special need's kids recieve therapy. It is a school where all things are possible. Doctors said Livi would never walk and she runs now. It is an amazing school. My sister-in-law is the founder of the school. So the school had the first ever fun run and town fair. It was so fun. I was in charge of the drinks and desserts, so we worked on labeling water bottles and getting desserts in the weeks before. I also had a la-di-da booth, so I was pretty busy. The boys and Scott ran the fun run and Luke was so proud. We had been practicing for a few weeks, so he would not be sore. After that, there was a town fair. the boys dunked their cousins in the dunking booth, and they played games and ate everything in sight. It was so fun.




The rest of the weekend we spent in the pool at Scott's sisters. His parents had come in town, so we just hung out with his family. Jake seriously stayed in the pool for 3-4 hours each day. He did not want to get out. It was funny. Luke has become a great swimmer.




Today it is hot. I am not ready for these 100 degree days...yuck!!

Mom's and Muffins









Have I told you how much I love my boys? They are awesome. I was so excited to get to go to Moms and Muffins at school. It had to be a rushed time, so I could get to both classes and back to my baby room to take pictures, but it was so fun. Luke had made a calendar for his kindergarten year. Each page had his handprints somewhere on it. Jake gave me a flower and a keychain with his picture. He did not want to give the keychain up, so we put it on his backpack. On Mother's Day I just wanted to spend time with the boys. I have been so busy with la-di-da, I have not been able to play with my boys. So after church we went to McDonalds, yes Mother's Day is the slowest day at McDonald's all year. They boys played. We then came home and Luke and I went on a mile walk. He is "training" for the fun run he is doing this week. We played and then went to eat with my mom and grandmother for Mother's Day. I am so blessed to have such wonderful boys. They are such a perfect gift. Oh, yea not to leave Scott out. He made me a wonderful breakfast in bed before church. What a great guy he is.




On Saturday we went to two swim parties. we went
to the new Frisco aquatic center for a party. That place is awesome. The boys had so much fun. Then that night went to our neighbors bday party and swam outside. The boys stayed in the water for probably 3 hours. It was so fun and relazing.
