I feel like Jaxon has officially grown up. He graduated from preschool, and has now started playing t-ball. He is at such a fun age, and I am loving every minute of it. At preschool, he got awarded the "Best Colorer" award. He is very articulate about both his coloring, and his cutting. Jaxon is SO excited to start kindergarten - I just don't know what he'll do without his cousin Tate there with him??

Jaxon actually does really well hitting the ball. I was kind of surprised how hard he hits...



Kenadee had her spring dance recital over the weekend. It was sooo stinkin cute! She has really taken to dance, and is doing so well! She is going to be so sad this summer when she doesn't get to go. The recital went really well, and I'm so glad it did. I was a little worried because she has the most sensitive skin, and is SOOO picky about the material of her clothes. When I saw her costume that she had to wear, I knew she was going to freak out...and I was right. It was a fight to get it on her. She had to wear a leotard and tights underneath, and we had to tape up her arms everywhere the material touched her. If you look closely, you can see the tape peeking out at the bottom of her sleeves. But it worked, and she did great!



And lastly, I just had to post about Rob. Last night, he told me that I could just take the night off and go shopping and that he would take care of the kids. I was thinking how awesome this was going to be. So I spent the night relaxing and shopping. When I got home, I noticed the back gate was open, so I went to shut it, and this is what I found out back (minus the kids).



When I came in the house, I had all the kids (Rob included) attack me with "can we keep it, can we keep it?" And I was thinking, well it's a little late to be asking since you've already blown it up and played on it....



So anyway, we how have this really huge, really expensive, blow up waterslide thing in the back yard. I'm sure our house is going to be a hit this summer!

uhhmm yeah.... so did I mention that we're coming over to play real soon. That has to be the coolest play set I've ever seen.
Do you think you want to do Peach days again this year? Let me know because I'd love to save you a spot in my booth. Not to mention it gives me an excuse to hang out.
