And now for the most painful goodbye...











We are so going to miss these girls when they are gone. But at least we got to have them for this short time. Some families aren't ever so lucky to live close to each other.

Saying goodbye

It's so sad to say goodbye. Two of my very good friends moved away Memorial weekend. One is off to Hawaii to live on a military post and the other in Idaho for a temporary stay with family while looking for employment. They have both made a great impact in my life and I owe a lot to them. These two women frequently watched my little katie while I was going to school. I will miss them both very much. And their sweet, sweet children.

Andrea, I will miss your laugh!!!

We've been busy, busy






Katie had her last field trip for school on Thursday. Had a lot of fun at the park playing and eating hot dogs. Kaaryn brought Salem to play for a little while too.

Sydney was inducted into the National Junior Honors Society last night. We are so proud of her and all her hard work.




Today Katie had her awards ceremony at school. She received the only Reading Award in her class. Way to go Katie. Jesse has worked so hard with her all year to help her learn to read. She is now officially done with preschool forever. Sad day.

Benson comes to visit

We had a busy, busy weekend full of family, graduations, and parties. On top of having Grandma here, Jesse's sis and her family came to town for the weekend. We did a lot of running and playing. It was a fun weekend and we were so glad to have the time with Jesse's nephew. With the limited time I had to work really hard to make an impression. Popsicles were my method.

Katie Graduates from Preschool

My baby has graduated preschool. She had a wonderful family turnout to the event. Jack entertained Benson with his gameboy while waiting for the ceremony to begin. Katie was so tickled to have her Great-Grandma Moore, Silver and PaPa, Aunt Kisha, Holly, and Charlotte, and cousin Benson come to her special night. It's been a week full of graduations.

Grandma visits






Grandma Moore is staying with us this week due to back to back weekend graduations. We've had the best time so far. She and Katie have had a lot of fun visiting and getting more acquainted with each other. What special memories we're creating.
