Hudson’s 1st Day of School-2 1/2 year old class

This morning Hudson started his first day of preschool in the 2 1/2 year old class, and even though he just turned 3 years old he officially misses the cut off by 2 days {and I’m so thankful that he’ll always be the oldest in his class}.  He is so confidant and just walked right into his class and didn’t even say goodbye.  He has been asking to go to ‘his class’ for the last 3 weeks (since Landree started school).  And of course we had to take a few pictures before heading out the door. 

  

Mia and I took Landree to school and then headed to meet Jeff to take Hudson into preschool.  He’s the attitude we got when I asked for pictures.  It sure does start early.  He was not having it….until his friend Mrs. Tricia got there.  She would smile for her-stinker!  I’m just glad she came so I could get a cute picture. :)

    

And then Miss Tricia arrived :)

And his buddy Samuel…

And then he walked right in not a kiss goodbye kiss :( or one picture with mommy, but he had a great day, and I know it’s going to be a great year for our little guy too!

Congratulations Class of 2012!

{Landree officially starts school on MONDAY!!!! So I thought I should get this up :)}

Or should I say class of 2025?  I think that’s the year Landree will be graduating from high school.  Heaven help me!  These last 5 years have gone so quickly I have no doubt the next few will too. Landree had a sweet graduation service on May 24th.  They sang a few songs and had a sweet slide show with a baby picture and there graduation pictures.  They wore cap and gowns and even walked up to receive a Bible and graduation certificate. 

Landree’s cap was falling forward the ENTIRE ceremony!  It was so funny watching her try to balance it on her head.  Following the ceremony they had a reception and we visited with several of her sweet friends, some who have been in class with her since she was 2 years old!  Mia was in town for graduation and we are so thankful she was there to share graduation with us! 

  

And then we forced her took a few pictures…

 

And the real smiles come out when she got to play and have a fun time with friends! 

    

And she has grown and changed so much over the summer!  I can’t believe we start school in just a few days! 

Mother’s Tea 2012

I love looking back at my blog, and seeing how the kids have grown and what we’ve been up to and I have done a terrible job at keeping up with it!  And after a little scare with my computer (long story-took it in to have a crack in the case fixed and Best Buy they decided to scrap it and give me a new one, which is great, but I took in a fully functioning computer expecting to get it back and they were going to destroy my hard drive with pictures and videos that weren’t backed up! Ugh!  Lesson learned!  Please learn from me!  Back things up! And even if you don’t keep your blog updated so you have it all right here! :) ok?

So…in May Landree had a Mother’s Tea at school.  She made me all sorts of wonderful things and marigolds that she planted from seeds and sang songs.  They had yummy treats like white bread sandwiches, fruit, and squeeze cheese and crackers.  All sorts of things that Landree NEVER gets to eat.  She loved it! 

And just to keep me humble when I think I look like the youngest mom in class…she used to say I was 6 or 22 ;) Do you see where my name is?  Don’t worry she knows how old I am now!
