I'm still here!!!

So I have to apologize for neglecting the blog the last couple of weeks. What a crazy couple of weeks it has been, school is crazy busy of course. A few weeks ago, we celebrated Shelbey's birthday. Avery counted down the days for a week leading up to the party, she loves her Shelbey!









She thinks these two girls hung the moon!

Ash Garden

This spring, Brian started a garden in our backyard. I have to say, I am pretty impressed, it looks great! Avery loves going to check on the veggies (tomatoes and cumcumbers) every day. Brian is very serious about his "crops" :) At the beginning ouf the spring, I thought Reba was a gonner when she decided to dig up one of Brian's tomato plants not once, but twice! (I think she likes the fertilizer)




Come on over, and we will load you up with a few fresh veggies!

We love the lake!

The past Memorial Day we spent it at the lake with the family. It was a great trip, filled with lots of sun, rides on the golf cart, and trips to the sand bar.



I love this picture, these two cousins had a blast all weekend :)

Making smores







Hope everyone had a fun and safe Memorial Day weekend. Thank you to all of the brave men and women who have helped to keep our country free!

Thank you Veterans!

End of school celebration!

For Avery that is, not me....

A couple of weeks ago, Avery's school had a program benefiting their scholarship program, the kids sang songs and then each class auctioned off a piece of artwork made by the class. It was too cute. And Avery actually performed this time, if you remember from the Christmas program, she just had a blank stare the entire time...but not this time! She actually smiled and sang :)




This is the wooden horse Avery's class made...so creative

and her artwork.

This morning, is the last day of the school year, and her last day with her teacher, Mrs. Haley. She really loves her teacher and I know she is going to miss her so much (we both will actually). This has been a busy, busy year, filled with lots of school for both of us, but I feel so lucky to have found such a great, Christian school for Avery.

The last day of school....my gosh she has grown!
