Graduation already...SERIOUSLY!!!



































Alex graduated from WC preschool today! This little guy has matured and grown SO much this year! I am so glad we waited to send him to kindergarten. He really "gets it" this year and has such a love for learning now. He is always asking for more paper to write things and is always trying to spell things out...it really is cool to witness his curiosity!!! Sophia had her last day of 3-4 yr old preschool. We were scheduled to have it at the park but the darn never-ending rain stopped that real quick. It was a nice day anyway just spending it with her only. We are so ready for summer and to head out on our vacation to Okaloosa Island, Fl next week!

Beautiful Day!

It was such a great day out...finally! Now, we are so behind in getting everything done outside that we won't be able to slow down to enjoy it but at least we can things done!!! We got the garden planted this week so bring it on! Those fresh veggies can come on anytime now, we are soooo ready.

This is such a cool product from Stampin Up! You can digitally scrap all your memories without having to use all of your space for supplies! I've really just been playing so I am still getting the hang of it but it is fun!

May is screaming by us!



Life is what happens while I'm busy videoing and taking pictures of it! LOL! I don't want to miss a minute so I keep snapping and keep the camera rolling but then I feel like I miss so much "in the momentness"! Oh well, I do love going back and editing all the pictures and I really do look at them over and over as well as use them for my scrapbooks. I have had such a wonderful but oh so busy May. Tee ball is in full swing, which I was "promoted" from team mom to coach (and I use that word really loosely), dance was winding down with 3 recitals and gymnastics is still weekly. The kids have fun but it is exhausting at times. Alex loved his tee ball practices but got a little nervous in games with all the spectators. He has finally adjusted and is doing so great! It makes me proud. Sophia LOVES, LOVES, LOVES dance and really shows it in her performance. Her teacher says she does really well and this too makes me a proud mama! Ava, however, well...she's 2 and she acts it. We do her Mommy and me gymnastics class but she was to disruptive for everyone so I decided to pull her and do some private sessions (to fulfill what we had already paid for) until she "gets it", she loves it but thinks it is ALL about her!!!  Any Moms have suggestions on how to fix that? LOL



On a fun for me note, I got a beautiful potting bench from Matt and the kids for my birthday and an awesome laptop from my parents (for my birthday) and Matt and the kids for Mother's Day! Man am I lucky in so many ways!
