Fun in the Sun

Remembering Brithdays

I guess you all missed some birthdays as well...Since my 'time off' from the blog we did have 2 birthdays.  Big Girl had a bowling party...quite fun!  And my Little Man had a pirate party.  We had quite a crowd at both parties and took the time to celebrate.  I did learn that if you have a party somewhere else you don't have to worry about decorating, cleaning up before the party, and cleaning up after...what a theory!  I think I am hooked.  Just kidding...my crafting and organizing traits will not allow me to always have the parties away...but it was nice this once.  So enjoy the pics as you see my kiddos grow before our eyes.  Too Fast!

                         This is one of the outfits I made for both girls!
                 

We survived and we are still here!

Hello family and friends...well, I can probably name the 4 of you that may actually check my blog again.  But we are going for it again.  I have had a few people ask to see pictures of the kids...and I do have a few on my phone...but I don't carry many around with me.  So I am trying the blog again.

I guess I have some catching up to do...not sure I can do it all in one post...but the most important part is that we survived both kindergarten and third grade.  The girls had some awesome teachers...we have been so blessed to have the teachers we have had.  So they both had great years.  Third grade was a bit tough...but my Big Girl handled it fine.  She did not exactly like all the extra studying...but she developed a love to read.  She even earned enough AR points to attend a movie and lunch at the park.  So she was quite happy.

Sweet Girl flew through kindergarten and even commented a few times that she was bored some days.  She is writing, spelling, drawing, adding...really amazing.  She loves to read as well...and LOVES to play school.  Little Man is often the student and does exactly what he is told.

I have a few pictures for you to enjoy...both girls were able to go to the zoo field trip (Little Man was not allowed to go)...and field day was a blast.  So enjoy the pictures:
