Last Day of School/Graduation

UNBELIEVEABLE!!!! She's done with Kindergarten. How is that possible!?!?!? People tell you when you first have your children that "it goes by so quickly." WHAT AN UNDERSTATEMENT! My sweet little baby who screamed her head off the second she came out has turned into this gorgeous, grown up little girl and I can barely remember when it all happened! She has become this smart, almost brilliant little girl. She is so full of life & always has been; loves to sing & dance; reads ALL THE TIME; full of surprises; and still as stubborn as she was BEFORE she was born! :) I have to admit...I didn't have a hard time dropping her off the 1st day of school but...I did have a hard time watching her finish. Made it final somehow. I guess like any day I would "wake up" & she would be 3 again. I am very proud of her!

Reese's Dance Recital

Reese had her first dance recital! GORGEOUS AS EVER!!! She had a ballet routine and a tap routine. She did such a great job! I couldn't have been prouder of all that she learned!

MY BIG BOY

One day this spring we were outside with our neighbors playing. Reese and the boys next door were riding their bikes and Hunter asked (again) for a big boy bike. Our neighbor heard us telling him that we would get him one soon. (We were thinking of his birthday.) After hearing us say that our neighbor told us..."I have an old little bike! Needs training wheels though." YEA!!! Hunter was so ecstatic!!! You would have thought it was a brand new bike. He went on and on about the color, etc. I was so proud...not because he was getting bigger & ready for a bike but b/c he was so GRATEFUL and APPRECIATIVE of the "gift" he was given!!!! I PRAY that he will never lose that.

MY SWEET BLESSINGS!

Just random pictures of the kids! Reese's school project, Hunter & Roo having PB&J on the back porch...w/ Bo of course, mowing the backyard with Daddy & vocabulary hat day at school!!! Reese's word of choice was SPARKLE of course! Who is surprised by that?

Turning 6 & Going to school!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEET BABY GIRL!!!!!!!

Reese's Tea Party

This year Reese decided to have a dress up tea party! Very girlie! We decorated everything we could with pink and purple, made little sandwiches in the shape of flowers, mini cupcakes w/ pink and purple icing. Every girl got a bonnet when they came in and it was quite the 'proper' tea party...even with pinkies in the air while we sipped tea! :) She seemed to have a really good time!

Daddy/Daughter Dance

Reese got a special treat just in time for her birthday. She and Jamie went to a special Daddy/Daughter dance at the FBC here in Melissa. Daddy's Rockin' Angel was the theme. He went all out. Dressed in a suit, got her a corsage, rang the doorbell to "pick her up" and opened her car door. SHE WAS IN HEAVEN!!!!! He said that she danced all night but the highlight was the chocolate fondue fountain!!!! DID I RAISE HER RIGHT OR WHAT!?!?!?! She's got her priorities straight! :)
