Emory's Out

Emory had her end of the year party today for the Friendly Frog class. She has spent the last three years at Ingleside Baptist Preschool and next year will be at Alex II with Jay. I have been so happy with Ingleside. Her teachers are awesome and she has made so many sweet friends. Packy loves to go to her events because the girls love to "take care" of him.

It's Been a While

After a wonderful weekend in Rome, GA playing tennis I came home to the aftermath of a tornado. Not a figurative tornado, a real tornado. Our house was fine and we were without water only for a few hours while others had trees on top and in their houses and no electricity or water for days. We were very blessed that the giant pecan tree in our backyard stayed right where it was. We were supposed to have Jay's birthday party at the bowling alley on Sunday but the bowling alley lost it's roof. Jay really didn't care as long as he got to open his present from Ceci, new Airrator tennis shoes. The pictures are ones that Jason took while I was gone. He did a great job taking care of all of his babies while I was gone from Thursday to Sunday!!!

Guess who got a haircut?

Since Packy was looking a little like Nick Nolte when he got arrested we thought it was time.

Elliot Farms

Today Emory's class went to Elliot Farms to pick strawberries. Of course I remembered at 8:55 and they were leaving from the school at 9. I decided we would just meet them there and I booked it to get dressed and ready. We were doing OK on time until I went outside and noticed that Jason had not taken out the trash. Anyway....we made it to the field trip in plenty of time and it was so much fun. We picked strawberries, ate homemade strawberry ice cream, went on a hay ride, and got to see chickens, goats, horses, and a crazy peacock that kept yelling at us from the top of the barn.

Creativity

adjustable casserole dish transporter + polly pockets and princesses= a castle full of fun
I love how Emory creates. She is so fun to watch and the worlds she creates are so fun to visit. Makes me realize that if the TV is not on that they actually use their brains. Packy, again, I just have to put them up so you can see the crazy sweet smiles that I get to see! How cool is he with the shades and the thumbs up?

pacs

The picture of Packy looking out the window with Bogey is almost exactly like a picture I have of Jay. I will post it with this as soon as I scan it. This was not staged either. I don't have one of Emory doing the same thing. I guess the boys and their dog are just on the same page. They both want to know what is going on outside and when can they get out there and do it too.

Busy Day for Jay

Two big events happened today for Jay. He had his first big school Field Day and he got his blue belt in karate. How cute is his friend from school?
