Kindergarten Graduation

Brock graduated from kindergarten on June 1st. He received the CRUNCH candy bar award for always being able to get out of a crunch just in time. Brock is such a neat kid. We are very proud of him!

I am going to have to rely on my friends for pictures of Addison. I was not able to attend the awards ceremony in her classroom. I was in my classroom at the time. One of those teacher things......you miss out on your own kids!

Trampoline

Michael and I decided to get the kids a trampoline at the end of the school year. They have learned many new tricks. Both kids love to jump as soon as they get out of bed. Michael has even been caught on it a few times. Here are a few pictures of the kids in action.

I have no idea what Brock is doing here.

I often find myself in that situation.

Addison is still trying to conquer the flip.

She shows off her other talents.

Happy Father's Day

Michael had a great father's day last weekend. The kids and I made him some monkey bread for breakfast. He got some things he had been wanting for presents and then we headed to church. After church, we came home, ate leftovers from our dinner the night before at the Roadhouse and then we crashed for the afternoon. It was a great day!

Our family is so blessed to have Michael. He is an amazing father and husband. When I look back over the decisions I made in life, like choosing a college and my first job, I know that God was leading me right to him. He is "the one" that I prayed for my entire life.

Michael ~ thank you for all you do for our family. We love you!

Danny's Birthday

This past week we celebrated Danny's birthday. It was also the same time that Becky passed away last year. So we all gathered to eat, laugh and have a good time. Michael grilled some delicious steaks, boiled shrimp and Sallee brought a yummy salad. We all had a good time, but the best was when I won at cards! Danny's new flag pole, just in time for the 4th of July.

Big Day for Addison

Today was a very big day for Addison. She took a jewelry making class last week and made several beautiful pieces of jewelry. One piece was a pair of earrings. She decided it was time to take the big girl plunge and pierce those ears. Today we headed to Claire's for the big event. Addison posing before we left the house.

Brock playing his DS at Claire's. Daddy took him for his summer cut last week, so now he has very little hair.

Getting ready.....the nerves are starting to show .

Getting a little sugar in the system.

Then...............

it was all over in a few minutes. Addison was very brave!

In 8 weeks, we can go shopping for some new earrings.

Spring Ball

Brock played t-ball again this spring. The Braves took the field in March and kept going strong until the last week in May. Brock showed alot of potential this year. He is understanding the game and asking very good questions. Here are some pictures from the last game of the season. Silly Braves

The boys learned to slide this year. Each boy slid every time they crossed home plate. We used alot of Spray and Wash on those pants this year.

Brock's goal was to hit it over the fence. He didn't make his goal, but he did rattle the chain link a few times.

One of my favorite pictures is of Brock and his daddy during team pictures. I will try to scan it and post it soon.

Next year........coach pitch or in Brock's case........Daddy pitch :)
