Survivors!

Relay for Life was on Evan's birthday. We usually have a team, but this year, my mom and I decided not to. Maybe next year.
Although we didn't have a team we still had to go, especially for my favorite...the Survivor lap. My mom and my grandma are both breast cancer survivors so, of course, they were there! Aren't they cute?

5!!!!!

Evan turned 5 on June 13! Boy was he excited. At school he gets a special birthday crown and they get to hold the flag, Ezra even got to play the tamborine next to Evan. We have had a countdown for 4 months for Evan's birthday so I could hardly wait until it came.

Evan insisted that the house be decorated 'birthday' when he woke up so we hung streamers all throughout the house. Evan took this picture he was so excited.

My attempt at a homemade 3-tier goodie tower made out of plates and cups. Stole the idea from Martha. Hers looked better.

The slide that was such a hit, but made a lake in our backyard.

Another birthday attemp...this time Light Saber cupcakes. Didn't turn out very cute, but were tasty! Hey, at least I gave it a shot, right? I usually stay away from the oven.

Ezra stuffing his face.

fun, fun

The best pinata ever! This thing took such a beating and still stayed together! The thing was super strong! And for $14.50, the price is right! I will never order online again!





Evan had a good birthday, I just really can't believe he is growing up so fast.

My Pre-School graduate!

Our little Evan has graduated from pre-school! What a handsome little guy he was. The graduation was awesome. New Adventures Pre-School is the best pre-school ever....(I am a little biased...I went there too!) Evan has become so smart and has grown up to be such a sweet boy (when he wants to) and I know he will do so well in school....mostly because of the staff at NAPS!!!!! Way to go, EVAN!!!

The kids had a party for the end of the year. They had so much fun. they swam, got to ride a pony, jump on the trampoline, and ate good food!

High School Graduate!

My nephew, Andrew, graduated from High School! I really can't believe he is old enough! here are pictures of him and his mom and then Andrew with my mom and dad.

T-Ball

I wasn't very good at taking pictures at T-ball this year, but here you go.

Kenny Chesney?.........

I brought guitars home for the boys and what a hit! They love them. Evan loves his so much he took it to school for "share day" along with his cowboy hat and then told everyone he was Kenny Chesney! What a funny kid.
(Look at the pick in his hand!)

Texas!

Went to San Antonio with a co-worker for a nursing conference for 5 days. We spent a lot of time at the Riverwalk and eating lots of good food. The people are so friendly there. I would like to go back one day with the family. Of course, the conference was great too!

The Courthouse.

It's not Texas unless you have a Mariachi band!

That's me and Steve Austin.

It took us 5 days to realize our waffles were in the shape of Texas.

The friendly skies.....
