Moving day is tomorrow. The kids were really helpful in packing up their rooms, especially Kaitlyn. Every time I started packing she was right by my side stuffing newspaper, labeling boxes, and trying to tape things up. It has been a long two months of packing. We are so ready to move on. We are sooooo excited!!!
Cary surprised Kate and I with some of our favorite things from Bath and Body Works the other night. We love being surprised! We also love getting gifts for no reason other then because we are his favorite girls and because he loves us. We definitely feel loved!
We are very proud of Joshua this year. It started out a little rough at the beginning and we sometimes thought we wouldn't make it through. He had an excellent teacher to help him along the way. WE love her lots and wish that she would move up to first grade. Joshua received the "Eager to Learn Award" and Excellence in Computers. 
Braeden: A honor roll for the whole year
We were driving home from a soccer game one evening and Joshua got so excited about the sun going down behind the clouds. He kept begging me to take a picture........of course I didn't want to try to take a picture and drive at the same time fearing we would wreck and all die. He kept begging and begging though. He kept saying, "but Mom it's so beautiful"! So I finally got him to stop begging me by telling him if I got to a stoplight I would take the picture. We made it to a stop light and here is his sunset. The picture really doesn't do it justice.
Kate has been dying to eat some watermelon since last summer. Every time we would go to the grocery store we would see these itsy, bitsy watermelons that were exorbitantly priced and
I was spoiled once again yesterday for Mothers Day. It was lots of fun. Cary got the kids up for church, fed them, bathed them, got them all ready and ironed the clothes so that i could sleep in for a little while longer. The kids then showered me with gifts. Cary got me roses and an MP3 player that i have been wanting. Braeden heard me say the other day while I was watching TV that I wanted a Swiffer so he went out and bought me one with his birthday money. Joshua made me a candle holder at school and a card with a poem. Kate made me a card and gave me my favorite candy bar. After church Cary made us lunch. HE grilled shrimp wrapped in bacon, baked potatoes, and salad. He also made me chips and salsa so that I could munch while I watched my favorite show, Survivor that evening. It was a great day and I felt very loved!
