over the rainbow

our sweet girl graduated from kindergarten today.  she has had a fabulous year and we couldn't be more proud of her.  she received the "magnificent mathematician" award at the ceremony this morning... aunt chichi and i were beaming!  this evening we had a family dinner party to celebrate her year of hard work and all of her dreams that we pray she continues to dream!

whoopie

so glad that testing "season" at school is over!  spent last night making some treats for all of the folks that helped make everything run so smoothly the past two weeks.  i work with a great group of educators!  links to the whoopie pie recipes:  chocolate peanut butter,  red velvet and funfetti.

dance recital

today was dance recital day.  we have to fight macie most nights to go to dance class... she says she likes to do her "own" dances and doesn't like being told how to dance!  but she sure is excited come dance recital time!  she listens so well to her teachers and has made some sweet friends in her class.

girlie shower

so excited that my sweet friend, kim, is having a little girl next week... and so glad that we got to have this shower just in time!  i absolutely loooove baby girl stuff... i mean check out those baby leopard mary janes in the last pic... adorable!

brax is 2!

my little birthday boy is into all things trucks... especially firetrucks!  the past 2 years have been so much fun being his mama and watching what a sweet, smart, handsome boy he is becoming.  thank you to our family for helping us celebrate tonight!!!  happy birthday, braxie!
