Ohio In The House!

Our Ohio neighbors came for a visit last week, we had so much fun. It had been a year since we have seen these beautiful people but the kids acted like they had never been apart. We had a great time hanging in the pool and we made a trip to Legoland. I was sad to see them go. I also realized that our Ohio friends will always be a part of our family. Thanks to the Lutz's for making the trip, who's next?

Happy Fathers Day

Oh, Boy!

Double reason to party today, last day of school and Owen's 8th birthday! School let out at 11 and we headed straight to the park with a couple of kids from O's class, younger siblings, and I got some chat time with other Moms. CC was very happy to have friends to play with. After the park we headed to an end of the school year swim party. (I know, we have become social butterflys.) Then we met Daddy Bill at Red Robin for a birthday feast! Owen had a great day. A few of his friends are coming over on Saturday for his birthday party, I need to clean my house! Owen also lost his other front tooth yesterday, he is talking with a theriousth lisp. In my opinion O's tooth was not quite loose enough to pull out. He gets all excited and rips them out. Corn on the cob is gonna be tough this summer. He is a super kid. I'm looking forward to hanging out with him now that school is out.

Graduation

CC has officially completed preschool, we have the diploma to prove it! They had a ceremony at her school today. These teachers must get together and brainstorm on how best to make us (parents) complete emotional wrecks. They sang these sweet songs, they announced their own name into the microphone, had a weepy slide show, and lightened things up with the grand finale of the Chicken Dance. I, big time hate to cry in public, it totally shatters my robotic persona. It was tough to hold it together. Luckily, Bill was able to sneak out of work for the festivities. Claire was pretty sentimental about the whole graduation thing too. She told me one single tear rolled down her cheek (this was a dramatic day) she also asked if we could go back sometime to visit Mrs. Haus. Hard to believe our little baby will start kindergarten in the fall, where does the time go?
