Blue Sharks Swim Party

Carson and Luke
Carson

Who is climbing the slide?



She made it...and so did he!

Coach Brent, Coach Brian and Part-time Coach Keith

It was a great season, the boys have grown and improved so much! Can't wait to see what Fall Ball brings!

Field Day!








Last Monday was field day. So glad I got to be a part of it this year.

Brr. Memorial Day Weekend...at the Pool...






They insisted, and so we went. Ironically it was full of other 1st graders. Not ironically, it was freezing. They seemed OK with it though...

Keith was very busy working all weekend and I hated to leave the house too much since our garage was open and there were roofers here, so we listened to a lot of thumping and enjoyed time at the park and the pool and other things close to home. I think Keith is ready for a day off...I lost count of how many babies he has delivered in the past week but I think we are over 5. Something about a holiday brings them in....

Last full day of 1st grade today...

On Thursday, last week, I had the kids write Mrs. Haught a letter and draw her a picture and this weekend I put them together in a book with pictures for her to go with her end of year gift.
Davis was only second hardest to get a decent picture of. I think the end of the year is getting to him.

We are so thankful for Mrs. Haught and for all those at Morse who made 1st grade wonderful for Davis. Sometimes we think about moving...and then we think about how lucky we are here with this school. Such an awesome place, rare to find a little school is such a big town.

Hard to believe that tomorrow at 11:45 I will be the mother of a 2nd grader. Eek!

Roof.




Friday--Day one, they worked from 2-8:30PM. Saturday--Day two, no one came...was going to rain, sprinkled a bit. Sunday--Day three, they came around 10:30, worked until 7:30. Monday/Today--day four, they showed up at 7 freakin' AM. While I am glad to get this done and really it is not as annoying (noise, etc) as I had anticipated; however, waking up to see a strange man in your bedroom window is not a comforting experience.

Overall, we are impressed at how fast and good these guys are at this--minus this mornings surprise.

Diva

Harper becomes a little diva more and more day by day. Last week she started insisting on wearing a bow to bed. Because it is important to look pretty while sleeping I suppose. Yesterday I swear she wore four or five different pairs of shoes, picked them up all over the house last night...and then this week she has insisted on not only wearing the bow to bed but has added sunglasses as a requirement to the ensemble.

Baby?

Every time I get my self thinking of a garage sale I wonder...do we want a baby? So I ask the kids...Davis, do you want a baby brother or sister. He says baby sister. Carson, do you want a baby brother or sister, he says baby brother. Harper, do you want a baby brother or sister? No--NO WAY! She is smart girl...should probably listen to her...but easier said than done to part with stuff!
