A Looooong Time Ago...

My little girl had a "school birthday" because she turned 6 in the summer. The theme was "Summertime Luau".

Her class enjoyed the treats. This was her last week as a Kindergartener!!!

Beach cupcakes...and yes, I used real sand. It's very good for the digestive system.

Don't gasp, it's only graham cracker crumbs. :)

Sum, sum, summertime

I am finally giving in after holding out all summer long. New computer, new adventures, and now that the girls are back in school...actual time to sit and upload.

Hannah has gone off to LOCS FOR REAL THIS TIME and this is a picture of the first day. Please excuse any appliances in the picture. :)

More later...

Show Day at Gymnastics

Congrats to Kathryn and Hannah on completing gymnastics for the year!

Yay for my little champions!

James got a little bored during the ceremony so we had some fun on our own.


We have about 6 more like this but I'll spare you.

Waco Wetlands Fieldtrip

Getting ready to take off to the Waco Wetlands.

Cute faces!

Our guide shows us how to use the nets to catch little critters from the pond.

Kathryn can pull off a pose even while dealing with slimy little creatures.
Crawfish! She kept asking if we could take them home and cook them. That's my little NOLA girl!

Here they are learning about edible plants in the wild.

Some kids were braver than others.

We had a great trip!

"Practice Day"

Hannah went off to LOCS today! It was a day for her to "practice" going to school. She'll hang out in the class she will be in next year. Yay for Junior Kindergarten!

Cutie pie!

Kathryn's Spring Violin Concert

The Three String waltz, ladies and gentlemen.

Easter, In Reverse

So start at the bottom and scroll your way up. Don't judge me, people!

We are looking ab-fab for Easter Sunday...

It's a tinkerbell flashlight. Thanks Easter Bunny!

Easter Buns! This is how we found James on Easter morning. He's gotten into a bad habit of removing his pajama pants AND diaper sometime in the night. It's not been a good development.
