School is out!

Caris has been out for two weeks and she misses school so much! She wants me to invite her teachers to her birthday party! This is from her program on the last day. And beside Caris is her best friend Emma. They are soooo cute!! Caris had a great year. She learned so much and had so much fun with her new friends! She can't wait to start again in September!!


McKenna's dance recital was last week and she did great! They were the 1st dance to "Sugar, Sugar". Their next dance was to "It's Hairspray!" Both dances were really cute! And if I do say so myself, isn't she beautiful? Yes!!!


Well, McKenna is now a 1st grader!! I can't believe it. She had a fantastic year and learned so much. McKenna's teacher is awesome and its just amazing how much she has changed and grown since the beginning of the school year! Here she is at graduation!

We are getting ready for playdates and vacation!! This summer is shaping up to be pretty busy. Unfortunately, we had to cancel our playdate today because Caris and McKenna were sick with some type of stomach bug-yuk! And Caris and I only got about 3 hours of sleep night before last, and she ran a fever and then last night, she stuck a bead up her nose! So, off we went to the urgent care facility! She was very brave, didn't cry or wince when the nurse removed it. I just can't believe she stuck a bead up her nose! I'm glad Chris's trip was delayed or I would have been nutty!! Tomorrow we are meeting some friends at the local waterpark, and on Friday I'm off to the Great American Scrapbook Convention! I'm taking a Basic Grey class, which I'm really excited about! And to shop~since we have no scrapbook stores around here anymore! Then I'll be giving the SAT on Saturday, church on Sunday and maybe see Kung Fu Panda next week! Hope everyone has a great week!!

Colonial

Wow! What an awesome experience! Of course, Chris goes to Colonial every year, but this was my first time. Chris went on Friday, but wanted to go again since we had tournament badges.
We went on Sunday and got a VIP parking pass from Stephen-thank you!! Thankfully, the humidity had dropped so it wasn't too miserable. There was plenty of shade and a nice breeze. Chris knows the course, so we were able to strategically get ahead of the crowd following Phil. We were able to see Phil quite a bit. At one point, we were waiting for him to cross over to the next tee box and I was standing right at the rope and he walked right by me and handed a ball to the little girl standing in front of me-awesome!! Phil rocks! After his awesome shot on 18 and victory, he thanked the soldiers for serving. And thanks to my Mom and Dad for taking care of the girls! We spent yesterday swimming and hanging out at my parent's-the girls did so great and had so much fun! My parents bought a basketball goal and it was so much fun! We are wrapping up school, have McKenna's recital and tons of other stuff! Hope everyone has a great week!

Weekend Project: Part One

Well, it took some prep work during the past week, but this is how we spent our weekend! We tiled the girls' bathroom! And for first-timers, I think that we did a pretty good job! We just finished grouting and we will need to caulk and re-set the toilet tomorrow evening. We also plan on painting, putting in a new light fixture and a new mirror, but that is for another weekend! Have a great week!!

Beth, McKenna and Caris

Happy May Day!

Here are some pictures from McKenna's field trip to the Botanical Gardens in Fort Worth. I hadn't been there since Chris and I had our engagement pictures taken there-about 10 years ago! It was beautiful! And all of the kids had a great time!

Saturday is the MS 150 Frisco to Fort Worth! Chris has been training really hard. A big thanks to everyone that has supported him and in finding a cure for MS. And its still not too late to donate! Every little bit helps! So keep Chris in your thoughts and prayers this weekend that it will be a safe and fun ride! I hope to post pictures from the ride next week!

Have a great weekend!
