Mother's Day

I had a good Mother's Day this year!


These Crocs already look like they are 100 years old! 

Can't wait to read Rex Ryan's book!  Fun!


Hanging Strawberry Plant!

Can't wait to try the yummy strawberries!


This isn't new but my clematis gets more beautiful every year!

Helke Birthday Luncheon

Today was Miss Megan's Birthday Luncheon at school.  Parents are allowed to bring fast food in to school and enjoy lunch with their birthday boy/girl!

During the luncheon each child has the opportunity to donate a book to the school library.  The school librarian puts a picture of the child in the front of the book and gives the child's birthday and how old they turned that year.  I love it when the girls (only Megan now) bring home their library books so we can look and see if we know the child who donated the book and how much the child has changed over the years!

As usual the light is horrible in the school gym/lunchroom!

Megan chose Chick-Fil-A for her b-day lunch!

Band Concert

Last night was the 5th and 6th grade band concert!  Aside from people saving entire rows of seats it was a nice concert!  It is amazing how much the 5th grade band has improved over the school year!  Emily loves band and loves playing her flute!  I am glad she didn't listen to me when I tried to talk her in to choir!
