Jayson is 6

Jayson was looking forward to his birthday for a long time this year.  He really wanted to do his party at Boondocks so that is what we did.  I let him invite 6 friends for his special day.  I sure love this kid!  They had a great time playing together.  I am so grateful for our neighborhood.  There are some great friends for him to play with!








Last Day of School

I was so excited for the last day of school.  I was so ready to not make lunches, be on a schedule and have to deal with Homework!
The girls had mixed emotions about being done.  Rylee was ready, but Tayler didn't want to say good-bye to her teacher.  We all know how Tayler is with change, so I told her I would pay her $100 if she didn't cry.  Sean and I both thought there was no way that she could do it, even if she wanted too.  Her heart is too tender and she just can't stop the tears sometimes.

Her and Rylee were both waiting for me outside the school when I pulled in. Tayler got in the car, smiled, and said "see I did it" then said "mom, is it okay if I cry now?  It has been so hard"  She told me that they had watched a DVD her darling teacher put together of the school year and all the pictures she had taken throughout the year.  I cried with her at that point.

I couldn't believe that she held it in at school. 


 Jayson and Jackson helped me make our sign to run through at the end.  They were both excited to have the girls home again.



 GOOOOOOOOOOO.......................

It was a fun year, full of good memories for both of them! 

Memorial Day

For Memorial Day this year, we went to my Dad's grave without my Mom.  It was strange to not have her there with us.  That has been our tradition for so many years!  We sent her the pictures and knew she was there with us in spirit (from TEXAS :)

It was a beautiful day.  We even heard the bagpipes.  I love it!

Catch up time

Oh my goodness... I haven't posted since April, Really?  What a slacker I am.
I am going to try to catch up since school is starting and I want to be all caught up by then. 

Tayler had ballroom at the her school in the mornings and right before school ended they did a little concert.  It was so cute and fun for the kids to do it.  She is excited to do level 2 ballroom in 6th grade.
