Another Milestone Passed

This morning before we left for school I took the last picture of John Michael at home as a Kindergartner. 

John Michael's program started at 9:00 so I just hung out at the school. We checked Danny out for the program and he was super excited to see his brother, and to get out of class, even though I think they were just watching a movie.  The program was so cute and all of the boys and girls did amazing.  Of course I cried but I was not the only one.  I just cannot believe that he is now a first grader.  Definitely a bittersweet moment.

After his program he was done with school.  Brandon and I took him to Chik-fil-A for lunch, which made him happy.  Then Brandon headed to work and John Michael and I ran a few errands.  We headed back to the school to get Danny man.

After school Danny had the Bible Bee.  Third grade is the first year that you can participate and it was a lot of fun.  Danny was out early, but now he knows what to expect next year. 

We headed out to the house this afternoon and they have started the bricking process!  YAY!!!

He Made It

So today is the last Monday of school which is exciting and a little sad.  I just cannot believe how fast it has all gone by.  Today is also extremely busy, but again it will be great.
Danny's class had a field trip today.  I went with them to drive and help chaperone.  We went to the Planitarium at Sanford.  It was a lot of fun and very interesting.  I was so glad that I went. 
I hated that I did not get to clean the van before hand, in fact I was in the parking  lot of the school throwing stuff in the back and front.  Between the boxes and the props for shoots my van is way too full.  I am working on that though.  It is on my list of stuff I have to get done this summer. 
Anyway.  Danny also had Bible Bee practice after school so I got John Michael and then we headed to a parking spot until it was time to get Danny. 
After school was completely over we headed to Springville to see Aubrey and the beautiful Miss Willow.  She is gorgeous, and so full of personality.  She was not completely extactic about her pictures but it was still a lot of fun, and we got some really cute ones.  I cannot wait to see her and photograph her again.
We also went to the new house, they finished the roof which was great news.  They also put the electrical in  for the island but they put it in the wrong spot.  The boards that were molded are gone and replaced, the ones thar are cracked are still there.  Needless to say building a house has several headaches. 

We headed to the ball park when we left the house, Danny had a practice game.  It was for fun.  There were several kids who wanted to practice kid pitch.  They did pretty well too.  It was definitely fun.  Ihope that theydo it more.

So here is the big announcement...

DANNY MADE ALL STARS!!!  YAY, My little Catcher Boy!

Something about Wednesday

So today was the school Mass.  This is a great day for me as it allows me to reconnect with Jesus with my boys and all of the children at St. Francis. 
After Mass I had a photo shoot with the beautiful Ella Brooke.  She is 11 months old today!  She is so precious and we had a blast on Morris Avenue.  We even managed a few pictures of big brother Jacob!
After school Danny had Bible Bee with Mr. McCormick.  He loves Bible Bee days and I am so glad that they mean so much to him.
We headed to Aldridge Gardens as soon as he was done for another photo shoot.  This one is with the beautiful Andee, who was celebrating her first birthday!  The boys even posed for a quick picture, which is a rare occurrence!

After the photo shoot we hauled tail to Clay for John Michael's practice.  It was a great practice. 

Bible Bee vs. Den Meeting

Today started with Mass with the School which is always a great way to get through the week, for me it is my chance to regroup and refocus. I enjoy being there with the boys, their school, and Jesus. It is just a good time for me and I think that they enjoy me being there.
So today was the Bible Bee Study. At least I thought that it was so I cancled our Cub Scout den meeting. I picked up John Michael and then drove to the back of the parking lot. About fifteen minutes later I saw Mr. Wright and Danny walking across the parking lot. Evidentally it was the 6-8th graders week for the Bible Bee and they canceled so there was nothing. I was just glad I was not the only parent with the wrong week. Oh well, that is what I get for trying to get on a schedule.
Tonight the Kindergarten classes sent us dinner. It was delicious. It was Kabobs, rice, salad, and chocolate cake from Zoe's.
