Little Panther

Eden at City Park and her 'end of the year' party! After a whole year of uncertainty and new friends and teachers...she thinks she pretty much rules the place!
Kelly and I could not be any happier with the way her Kindergarten year has turned out! She is now officially a First Grader...

Her bestie!

Her favorite and bestest teachers!

Eden and her silly friends!

Firsts and Lasts

Eden's first day of Kindergarten...August 10, 2007

Last day of Kindergarten...May 30, 2008

Look how much my baby has grown--in only 9 1/2 months! I can not believe she has completed a whole year of real school. She told me this morning-"I will be in First grade after today!"
And tomorrow she will be 6....!

Ganny and Pops

We spent a day over the long weekend with Ganny and Pops, along with Heidi and her crew! We had a great time playing in the hot tub, the sun, and of course the new trampoline (which was a birthday present for all the grand kids). What a great weekend to spend with family!

Happy Memorial Day

First Outing

"Is it open, is it open yet mommy?" Words we have heard for three weeks straight! My children know that when it is their birthday time, that it is also pool time! We have been anxiously awaiting the opening of our pool--and yes finally it is open! We had our first outing yesterday--but not for long, the water was quite cold!

Fairy Princess

One of Eden's birthday presents was a Fairy puzzle framed from her Aunt Jennifer! It is so beautiful and it inspired Jenn, Kelly and I to rearrange and decorate Eden's room on Saturday night as a "surprise" for Eden. We thought rearranging her room would make it all seem new to her again! We were right--she loved it! Thanks Aunt Jenn!

Birthday Babies

Another birthday party come and gone! Hank is now 3 and Eden will be 6 in a couple of weeks! The point of having them together is to save money for one and then to be more convenient on our family and friends with only one party to attend! But for Kelly and I...it is pure chaos! Needless to say we are exhausted! But of course, with Eden's actual birthday still almost 2 weeks away-- we will still have a small party for her in Florida! She is so excited about that!!
Thanks to all our Family and Friends for such a great weekend and a wonderful birthday for my babies!

Cupcakes and Birthday wishes!

Me and my birthday babies...

Present time! This was pure madness!

Of course we gave her flowers for a job well done!
