Almost There!!

It has been sooo crazy trying to get ready for our preschool graduation program! It is this Friday at 9:00 a.m. (just in case you want to pray for me! haha). Jeremy and I have been putting in some massive hours trying to get the program all ready. I am exhausted!!

Just to give "props" to my hubby: he has done ALL of the video presentations for the school - that's 4 different picture videos w/music!! He is also making DVD's of all the videos for each and every student here so they can watch it at home too! He is sooooo awesome! Just thought I would show some love!

Anyway we are going to collapse on Friday afternoon! Oh yeah he also has to clean up the HUGE mess that we will be making on Friday! He just keeps smilin' and goin' on! Thank you!!!

Edohana Surprise!!! written by Dakota!

Friday we had fun blind folding him. he was scared that we were going to spaghetti warehouse.


But insted we went to Edohana. we kept him from knowing about where we were going for his birthday.

Well our cook was talented he juggled eggs. one landed in his hat it was fun and exciting. when we got to our table he juggled his utensils. After that he put oil on the big stove and then the oil burst into flames. We ordered off the kid menu and we got as much as the adults!

This was the stack of oinions after he put oil in the stack and lit it on fire. it lasted for a whole minute. It was awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yeah - do it again!






wow shrimp - I ussually HATE shrimp but wow this was awesome I loved it!


give me some more! He said do you want to try to catch some shrimp.
All the guys did but I was the ONLY one to catch it in my mouth on the first try!


ok the computer just stoped working and I was almost done. Mom to the rescue - somehow she knows how to make this computer work! Thank goodness! it has taken me forever to do this!






This is how we embarassed DAD on his bday! They came out and played on the gong and made him wear this "amish" hat!!!!! But they did give him a big Fried ice cream - it was very good! Don't ask me how I know that!!!! haha


We had a great time! I want to go there for my birthday!

8th Grade Banquet!

As promised here is my Baby all grown up......and having the time of his life!

We started out at a steakhouse in Winnsborro - it was amazing! The service was awesome, the ladies really went out of their way for us and our boys! As we ate we watched as the rain just poured - we as the parents were kind of worried since we knew the boys were supposed to arrive at the banquet in "convertible cars". The boys were not the least bit worried - they were just having a wonderful and exciting time!

These are the BEST group of boys that Dylan could have for friends! God has sure blessed him with a great group of buddies to hang out with!

Now we are off to meet up with our "grand entrance" mini roadster cars! They are so fun! We had two of the Dads be the drivers! They drove all over town and had a blast! Yes, the rain held off just the perfect amount of time for our boys to enjoy the "ride"!

The boys were challenged by one of their teachers to do something that had not ever been done in any of the previous years - so......here we are in the cutest mini cars ever and making history for the Middle School!

As the boys exited the cars they had the coolest "walk and turn" as they proceeded into the banquet - they practiced this "performance" many times before actually going to the school. The crowd at the school LOVED the cars and how they walked in!

This night is definitely a milestone in Dylan's life as he is venturing out of his comfort zone and actually having his very first dance with a girl. He just texted us to let us know he is having a great time!!

He's growing up so fast...

We lost him for 3 whole day as he read this HUGE book! He always says reading is like watching a movie in your head! We kept telling him to turn the "movie" off! Even Dixie was missing him! LOL His elementary reading teachers would be so proud!

I was going to the kitchen to pour my cup of coffee - when I noticed Dylan out on the patio reading his Bible before school. Then Jeremy went out and joined him - I thought this was such a precious time! This picture is taken from my kitchen window as I was holding back the tears!!!

Eight grade banquet is tomorrow - He is so excited! I promise LOTS of pictures to come!

Easter

I had a great time going to Damon's Easter Hunt at school! It was raining but, hey, that does not stop 2nd graders from finding the "good stuff"! He has such good friends at school and it is always fun to see him in that environment.

Mrs. Brock has been a great teacher for Damon - we couldn't have asked for a better year!

She is exactly what he needed! God has shown many blessings through her!

We then went to Memaw's and Papa's house for the best ever egg hunt! It was a BEAUTIFUL day and we so enjoyed the day with them!

This is Memaw's new "cart" or "buggy". I think the kids enjoy it more than she does - but then again I've heard that she goes pretty fast!

Just a few pics from the egg hunt - we had one for the little kids and one for the older ones! Yes

we go all out when it comes to the good stuff!

I just LOVE this picture!

I was told I was slowing him down by taking pictures! He was in a hurry for some reason!!LOL

"Is that MONEY I hear!"

Yes, we even gave Dixie an Easter surprise!

If you know my boys at all - it won't be hard to guess which one this is!!!???
