Pre-School Graduation






Here is my big boy...going to Kindergarten next year! We are so proud of this guy! These adorable girls are fighting about who is going to marry Logan. We are sure going to miss our pre-school after four years sending our boys. We will certainly keep this place in our prayers. Thank you for loving our children!

Summer Goals




I am beginning to worry about summer, having the children home all of the time is starting to make me feel a bit anxious. I have always looked so forward to the kids being out of school because I generally miss them. For some reason this summer feels different... So, I have decided to set some goals for myself. By putting it on the blog, I will be more accountable in achieving them. Right???? Here it goes!


10. Implement a behavior plan (the teacher in me) I have already put this into place, the challenge is to be consistent. See above picture...beads are put into the purple jar for good behavior.
9. Let my kids have a friend over once a week, if they earn it, see # 10. UGH!
8. Get membership to the splash house.
7. Swim, swim, swim
6. Golf, golf, golf
5. Cook more often (healthy)
4. Go on a few small trips (Kings Island, Red Sox game, etc... once they earn them)
3. Keep my flowers and gardens alive (I usually get tired of watering by the end of July)
2. Loose 10 Pounds! I need to loose more, but let's be real people!
1. HAVE FUN WITH MY KIDS!

Dog Hunt

You looking for me?

Well...I just got back in the house soak and wet after going on the hunt for our mini Doxie Chloe. Apparently she was out in the garage and the boys went out for a minute by opening the garage door. So...we thought our little pooch went for a stroll! After a half hour of searching...us and the neighbors, we had no Chloe. Then I hear my husband shout, "I have her!" Where was she you ask...? In the van!! We must have a super smart dog who can open car doors.

Dad...We Need a Baby!


My second born proudly announced to a room full of friends at the hospital...
"Dad, we need a baby" Aaron responded, "You can go and see Drew any time you want."
