Last Day of Pre-school Mother's Day Out

Stephen and Jonathan had water day at MDO for the last day. Unfortunately, with the maid her and setting up for the photographer, I didn't get a chance to go see them. I went last year it was a mess and hot!! Jonathan's teacher sent me this picture. 

My plans for the summer are go swimming with cousins, go to the beach, go to the public library once or more a week. This is while we possibly build a house and move into an apartment or buy a house and move.

Mothers Day Out Pre-K Graduation

Stephen's Tigers class had their graduation ceremony today. I'm just in aw he will be in Kindergarten in a few months. Here are the pictures I have from my iPhone. I accidentally left my camera stick at the house so I wasn't able to use my Nikon. Ugh!!! 

College Friends

I love that we can get together for dinner and coffee a few times a year. It's usually to celebrate a baby shower but sometimes we get together just because. In all we have 14 kids. 

What we have been up too

Life never slows down with these three....

Grass

We decided to get grass put in our backyard after almost 3 years with very little grass that would grow. Now, after 3 large trees have been cut down we know the sun will allow for more grass to grow. It looks so nice. The kids love it.

Getting The House Ready to Sell

We decided to go ahead and sod our backyard. One side of our yard is low and has washed away a lot of the dirt in the yard. Daniel decided to get a load of dirt to level it out before we sod. The boys were at MDO when the dirt was dumped. They found this mound of dirt when we drove in the driveway.

Anna went out for a look at all the dirt in her boots.
