Kellan first day of MDO 2010

Kellan had a great first week of Mother's Day Out.  He loves his teachers, Mrs. Miranda and Miss Kendra.  He had Mrs. Miranda when he was a baby so it is neat he gets to have her again.  Kellan was most excited about carrying his Buzz Lightyear backpack.  He is in love with Toy Story.  I am so blessed by our Mother's Day Out and it is right next door to LCU, so it is perfect. 

1st Day of School 2010

How do I have two kids in school?  Kole started Kindergarten today and Kyler started 3rd.  I love the excitement of the first day of school.  I don't like the nerves though :).  Kyler has a stomach like mine and with anything new she gets a tummy ache and gets nervous.  Kyler was a little tearful but was better once she saw her friends.  Kole didn't even seem phased that it was his first day of school.  He went into the room and put his backpack in his locker and sat at his desk.  Man, that boy always surprises me.  I am glad that part is over and I pray they are blessed with Godly teachers this school year and that my kids are a light to all the other children they come into contact with.  Kellan was happy he got to come home with me and now he gets to experience life as an "only" child :)!!

Kyler's 8th Birthday

Kyler had a great 8th birthday!  She loves skating so this year she decided to have a skating party.  Summer birthdays are hard so she was glad to see all of her friends.  How do I have an eight year old?!?  It seem unfathanable.  Kyler is so much fun!  She loves sports, shopping, girl time, and playing outside.  She is such a blessing to our lives.  It was also neat to see Kole and Kellan skate for the first time :)!!

Kellan's 3rd Birthday

I say it every year, but how is my baby 3 already ?!?  Kellan had a great birthday.  He is obsessed with Buzz Lightyear and all he cared about was his cake this year.  He got tons of Buzz toys too, which he loves!  We got him a 3D Buzz slip n slide and he has enjoyed playing on that.

Here is what Kellan likes at 3:

*Buzz Lightyear :)

*Riding Bikes

*Reading books

*Playing Outside

*Running errands with mom

*Singing "I love you a bushel and a peck"

*He still loves his night, night and long naps :)"

Kellan's pary was on Saturday, but his real birthday was Friday.  He got Krispy Kremes for breakfast, got to swim, and of course a kid's favorite destination for supper.  Good ole Chuck E Cheese :)!! 

Slow Down Summer

Man, summer has already been so busy, but lots of fun! The kids and I just got back from a trip to Dallas with some of my college girlfriends.  It was so much fun!  I am so blessed with all the friendships I have from college.  I love these girls!!!

We ate at The Melting Pot

Our kids had a blast playing together!

We went to the Water Park with the big kids!

Kole graduated from swim lessons.  I am so proud of him!

Kyler had a great end of the season soccer party. We love our soccer family :)!!

Next up . . . We leave for Houston on Saturday to celebrate the 4th of July and then we are off to Sea World.  This should be the last trip of the summer and then we can enjoy being home before school starts again.  Happy summer to all !!!!

Weekend at the Guffey's House

Trey was so sweet and came up with a way to invite us and the Bradleys to surprise Julie for her birthday.  Unfortunately it is a little hard to keep a surprise from a woman, especially when she wants her new house to be clean :)!!  So, it wasn't a surprise, but it was a great weekend.  The Guffeys were the hostess with the mostess.  We had such a good time and Julie and Denise are such dear friends that I don't get to see near enough.  Our kids are ages 7,6,5 (3 of them that were born in the same month),4, and 2, so they had lots of fun too!  It was a great way to start off the summer :)!!

Kyler's Field Day and End of School Party

Kyler's field day was so much fun!  She has a Hawaiian themed end of year party and they kids had a blast!  I cannot believe I have a 3rd grader.  Thank you Ms. Riegel for a great 2nd grade year!!
