My story...

Travis and I have been married since 1996. We have 4 beautiful children: Madelyn (1998), Jacob (2001), Bryson (2004), and Allyson (2007). I love being a mom and wouldn't change a thing (most of the time!).

School's out ... now what?!

Maddy and Jacob's last day of school was Thursday. Both kids had pizza parties for lunch - one of our friends runs a pizza store close to the school and he said that they delivered 150 pizzas by noon!

They both had GREAT teachers and will miss them. We hope for good teachers next year too - so far we've been really lucky!!! They learned a lot this year and had lots of fun. I still can't believe that summer is already here ... especially since we've been unseasonably cool this weekend.
Here is Maddy hugging her teacher goodbye. Her class got to wear PJ's and watched Charlotte's Web, which they just finished reading that morning. Here are some of Maddy's friends from her class.

Jacob loved his teacher too. Here he is saying goodbye. Spontaneously, some of the kids in Jacob's class pile together for a picture. Silly kids!
Jacob's class had some bubble activities planned for the afternoon. Every time they went to go outside, it started sprinkling, but the third time was a charm. Both boys had more fun chasing the bubbles the wind was blowing than doing their own.

It always amazes me how observant Ally is. Even though she has never played with bubbles before, when I let her out of her stroller, she went over to get one of the bubble wands and went right over to the little pans on the ground and dipped it right in. She loves to be "big" like the other kids!

You are such a great Mom, to always be there for the special school occasions, recording those moments in pictures.
