Last Week of School

We've been very busy this week as it is the last week of school.

Will graduated from Kindergarten (see previous post).


 On Tuesday, Will pulled his two front teeth.  He told me he now looked like a 1st grader, because they didn't have teeth.
 Thursday was our last day of school.  Here is a look at Will (wearing the same shirt) on the 1st and Last day of Kindergarten.
 Will's award ceremony for the 9-weeks was also held on Thursday.


Will received the Music, PE, Good Behavior, and LessThan 5 PH's Awards.  We are so proud of everything he has accomplished this year!

Friday was Walker's last day at the Little Learning Center.  We are so sad the school district decided to close down the LLC.  Will and Walker both went there and they LOVED it.  They had great teachers who took care of them as if they were their own.  We will miss it dearly.  Walker kept saying But I won't get to see all my friends.
Look how much he has grown!

Friday night my niece, Rebecca, graduated from high school.

Kindergarten Graduation

Today my baby graduated Kindergarten.  I did really good and didn't cry but I had to focus on taking pictures so I wouldn't.  They were all so cute!!!  They sang "1st Grade, 1st Grade" and at the end they sang and signed "Sunshine".  What a great year he has had.  We are so proud of Will and everything he has done.  Here are a few pictures from the day.

Will got the Whoppers Award,  "For the student who has some really good stories".  I can only imagine!

March of Dimes

Saturday we joined Baby Emma Team at the March of Dimes Walk

Happy Mother's Day!

My boys have really spoiled me this weekend.  They've made me all kinds of special treats and ended the day with making my favorite - strawberry pie.
So precious!  Will made several things for me at school. 

Walker also made several things for me.  I love the third one - I think she's best at giving hugs.  And you know I'm smart because I can paint a bookshelf.  Such sweet innocence.

My boys also got me the Mom charm to add to my Pandora bracelet ( my new favorite charm)!

I'm very blessed!

Busy Saturday

Today has been a very busy Saturday.   Steph came home so the whole family could met for a Mother's Day breakfast.  I have a group picture but not everyone was cooperating. 
Here is Nana was all her grandbabies.

Uncle Nick and Walker.  We missed Aunt Emily today! 
The kiddos all got to play at Papa & Nana's for a while.  We had a quick lunch and then back home to see my niece, Rebecca, before her prom.

is all grown up.

Then we were off to Jameson's birthday party
Walker chauffering around the birthday boy.

The kids had so much fun connecting these rolly thingy's (not sure what they are called).  Someone would pull them around and around until Jameson opened presents and got to see his new tractor.  He then attached the rope to his tractor and started pulling them around  - a table and a few people (not paying attention) may or may not have been run over in the process.

Then we went over to Shannon's mom and dad's to watch the Derby.  After the Derby we went to a BBQ place for supper. 
Here's some pics of the boys on the way to supper.  They were both worn out and fell asleep on the way to eat.
