Breathing a little easier now

I can breathe.  Slowly but surely we are checking things off the list.  The biggest one to check off is, SCHOOL IS OUT for the summer!!!!!!  But not before awards day is complete...

Ford won a local art contest....

 He won the highest average in science and All A's...

 Proud parents

 After awards we went to the last party in his second grade classroom.

 Mrs. B. gave them a hat!

 Then on Sunday was an even BIGGER day!  Our Bitty finally got baptized.

 Tuesday night was John Brantley's last baseball game for the Hornets.

 I love that their daddy is always there to coach them!

Summer has begun!

Hold your breath and go...lots of activities happening

Sometimes I am just like “If I can make it through this week, things will calm down”.  I mean “Who am I kidding???”  I have three very active kids, nothing is going to slow down.  Ever. 

BoomPa and Patty have been held hostage in North Mississippi for a week, splitting their time between the 10 grandchildren and all the end of the year hoopla kids have.   I hosted them a few nights, myself.

 We had winter.  We have summer.  We did not have spring.  It is HOT here, folks!

 Bitty graduated 4K and Mrs. Marcia gave him a balloon and candy.  This pleased him very much.

 There are those days that you just can't hang until the sun goes to sleep.

 Last week Bitty's school had their End of the Year party and we grabbed Emery for the fun.

 They fed goats...

 Got their faces painted...

 Rode the train...

 Ate sno cones...

 Watched turtle races...

 Petted weird animals....

 Albino Hedgehog

 Rode horses....

 Ate snacks....

 And headed home...

 Comparison of the before and after...

 I also killed a baby snake right outside of my garage.  I was courageous and brave.  This was also my first snake to kill.

 Wednesday night the kids of CIA (Children in Action) received their badges they earned this year at church.

 And Friday was the last day of school for the boys....

 First of the year and end of the year...

 First of the year and end of the year...

Lots more to blog about when time allows.
