We were "knifed".....

I woke this morning to look out the window to a bunch of white things sticking out of my lawn. I walked outside to find toilet paper on the bushes and a lot of white plastic knifes sticking in the front lawn.... to funny!

The thing is Michael was with his friend when he took the knifes from his house to TP the other night which they didn't do. We laughed and I guess being "knifed" makes for easy clean-up. Oh, the life of teenage middle schoolers!

Happy 15th Birthday Zach


I cannot believe I have a child old enough to get his permit to drive a car! (Well he failed the first attempt to get his permit...) He has finally grown into his own. He has his opinions and thinks he knows everything about everything. (Like knowing everything about driving so the permit test would be easy - yeah proved that one right!) Zach is a great kid, he is polite and thoughtful. The other day he sees the neighbor unloading his car and Zach jumps on over to help... He is responsible but a huge procrastinator! He is constantly growing out of his clothes - finally - and one of these days he will get his permit and he will pass and drive a car....

Kindergarten Graduation


I can't believe my youngest is finished with Kindergarten! What a great year at a great school. Andrew loves school and loves learning about everything. He has made great friends and even though I might not like him growing up so fast he is ready to be a first grader!! Thanks to Mrs. Aguilar and Mrs. McKelvie for a very successful year.

Dirt, Water and an Imagination



You can always count on Michael to come up with a creative activity..... We have an empty spot in our front yard that the boys have found. Andrew had been using the area to build beaver dams and create sculptures in it but then he got Michael involved. After a few hours with lots of dirt and water they built a really cool track to race monster trucks on... to fun!!
