Bonus Picture Dump Post--Alex Graduates Preschool & Last Day of 1st Grade for JR

As predicted--we have had a fun and eventful week!  As we depart for Texas, I figured I better get some oft these pictures uploaded before the next huge set.  The kids were super excited to company to the company picnic/Air Force Graduation celebration at work.  They had a blast jumping in the bounce house, pigging out, and enjoying NOT being in school.  Yes--I'm a terrible Mom for pulling JR out!  Ha!


These glitter tattoos were so awesome I bought some for us!




The show was incredible per usual.  It was perfect weather to watch them fly.  My pictures were pretty crappy.

Good day for a Root Beer.

So I stole some from a local professional photographer.  Ahhhh...much better!


Beautiful!

OH! And I joined Weight Watchers (again), and decided to take a picture of this beauty.  Only 18 pounds of baby weight to go!

Thursday night was Alex's preschool graduation.  She is excited to start Kindergarten this fall. And SO ARE WE.  We have waited 7 years for no more children in full time daycare! Cha CHING.
JR was happy to see his bestie.


This picture makes me flash forward to senior year in high school! It will be here before we know it.


Gwyn and Alex.  Sad that Gwyn will no longer be at Hope after this summer.  These two have been together since they were infants!

These two also! (this was taken 2 years ago):




Gwyn, Alex and Coop!


Their buddy Sebastian decided to jump in the mix.

So proud!


And Alex's wonderful teacher's Ms. Ashley, and Ms. Cassie.


The JR and Gavin show!  (Taken with Larissa's fancy new camera. Ooooh...Ahhhh).













The end of an era!

And today was JR's last day of school.  He has a half day today, and summer officially started at 12:45 pm.  He is ready for 2nd grade, and rocked out 1st grade.  Top reading class, whizzing through math, and has learned so much this year.  We are sad that his 1st Grade Teacher Ms. Sparks is moving to South Carolina and won't be around anymore. She was amazing.




I love these comparisons.
Looks like Alex is catching up to him!  In August--she will be holding her own sign!


This weekend we are off! We get to see Devin, Roy, and Baby Lili for the first time.  The kids are excited for some pool time and some R&R.  Let summer begin!
