Play Day and Awards Ceremony

Andrew had play day today. He competed in the 50M dash, Obstacle course, free throws, and frisbee throw. I took the day off and spent it with him and the class. WOW, I have a whole new level of respect for Mrs. Stephens! That class is out of control! For the most part though, they were good, and everyone enjoyed the day!

After play day, there was an awards ceremony for the elementary and middle school kids. Andrew won 1 of 3 reading awards for scoring at least 10 on his reading tests. They read books to the students, then the student takes a test on the computer over the book. Each test is worth 0.5 points, which means Andrew scored really well on at least 20 tests this year! He also tied with another boy in his class for the highest score in kindergarten. He was so pleased with himself when he received his awards! I am glad I was able to be there, his smile was priceless!!

Time to plant

I bought some plants while out on my lunch beak today. Can't wait to get home and get them in the ground. My tulips are starting to fade, so time to get some new color out. I only hope we are past any heavy frosts. I am sure the boys will enjoy helping plant, maybe I can get some pictures on here later. Colby also has school this evening, he asks EVERY morning if he gets to go to school. I hope he continues to like school as much as he does right now! Enjoy the sunshine!

Stormy Saturday

I am glad that I did not have plans to garage sale this morning wiht the storm coming in. We just finished our cereal, Andrew is playing Wii, and I am getting caught up on the computer, then going to get on the Elliptical. It has just started to thunder, and Jeff is out trying to quickly fix some fence. Hope he gets it done soon! Then it will probably be a day of cleaning and watching the rain, I love listening to thunderstorm's! See everyine this afternoon at Amanda's shower, can't wait to see all the babies!

Easter Egg Hunt

Saturday the boys went to the Easter Egg hunt in Colony. they had a lot of fun seeing their friends and finding eggs. Easter morning, they got up just in time to hunt eggs before the rain set in. Here are a few pictures.

Spring has Sprung!

Friday evening Jeff tilled the garden and we planted potatoes, onions, spinach, lettuce, and peas. We also have the second garden patch tilled, but the rain last night will delay our next planting session! We also have 4 kittens that have just opened their eyes. Three of them are black and one is orange and white colored. I hope they can survive Bo, but we'll see how that goes since he likes to pick on the bigger cats and carry them around. I guess all signs that Spring truly is here!!
