Spencer gets a haircut :)

What would make you think he needed a haircut????

Could it be the amount of hair piled on the floor after his haircut??
Or maybe it was the ponytails Junior was able to

put in Spencer's hair the other day???? Whatever it may have been...

He looks HANDSOME with his summer haircut!!

Happy Father's Day

We love you...Hope you had a great Father's Day!

Family Fun Day

Thursday was Gabriel's last day of school. To celebrate they had a fun field day and invited the families to come out and join :) Spencer and Nathaniel played hookie (Dest and Junior had finals so they couldn't) and we headed out to hang with Gabriel and his class. He was really excited to have his brothers at his school!! I always enjoy being able to go to his school and see how much he has grown...Spencer asked me " Mom, how come there are only a few parents here? Where is all the rest?" I always do feel bad for those whose parents don't come.

We had lots of fun as we started out with 3 laps around the field and then Ms. Chrissy ( Adaptive P.E. teacher) lead us all through the chicken dance (which is so funny cause Gabe knows all the words and moves and so he is here helper to call out the next step..lol..i thought he was just that way during worship at church...lol) then we did the hookie pokie ( Gabe and Ms. Carol get down for this song..lol) and then we did the limbo...Gabriel loves to play limbo...i think he just loves to sing HOW LOW CAN YOU GO HOW LOW CAN YOU GO!!!

Then we headed outside to play bubbles, sidewalk chalk and water games...MAN WAS IT A HOT DAY!!!!! After all the playing we went back in and they enjoyed watermelon and Popsicles..Gabriel did not want Popsicles but he loved the huge piece of watermelon!!

It was a great day!

Destinee's 8th grade graduation

Destinee had her 8th grade graduation ceremony this week. We are so proud of her, she graduates with "A" honors and many community hours served through the Junior Honor Society. Can't even imagine that she will be going to High School in September!!!

We love you Dest...This is your time to SHINE and have FUN!!!

(This is only half the students and parents! They had over 200 8th graders who were graduating...Thank God they are opening new schools this upcoming year!)

Fresh from my yard :)

I am so excited..I have 3 huge Hydrangea bushes and they have finally bloomed! I have been waiting to see what color they would be, as the soil you have depends on the color they become... God is so AMAZING! On each bush they are purple, pink and blue...all on the same bush!

YEA ME :)
