Mother's Day:))

Today is Mother's Days!  As Keegan said first thing this morn, "are you gonna have a birthday party??!!"  I LOVE that every celebration should = a party...IT SHOULD:)))

 

Nonetheless, I am SUPER blessed to be a mommy and have 2 AmAzInG little boys. Life without them is unimaginable and I LOVE them more than they know.  I think mommyhood is something you cannot explain, only other mothers know the feeling. 

 Mommyhood has taught me soooo much!!! {good and bad...ha!}

 

So HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to all the mommas -- MINE included!!!  My momma is the BEST and I LOVE her soooo much:)  She is my constant source of LOVE and there is nothing I cannot ask her --- I still need her opinion on most things:)))  I love her like no one else!

 

I am sooo lucky to have LOTS of mommy friends too! 

Happy Mother's Day to you all!!!

18 more days...

I am Waaaaaaaaaay behind on my blogging --- it seems to always get to me around Easter time, and then I get completely overwhelmed.

 

However, I see a break in the clouds...we only have 18 more {school} days till summer vacation!! 

 

I am soooo very excited about summer this year.  I'm ending my first year of teaching AND it will be my first summer "off" in FOREVER!!  We have a vaca planned and...if you know me,

I just LOVE LOVE LOVE the sun:)))

 

so...until then...I leave you THIS to look forward to:)))

 

 



Frame this Moment x2

A few days, or weeks, ago {I forget}...I caught a moment where K was playing absolutely BY HIMSELF in the backyard.  He was soooo content and in his own little world.  I LOVE THESE MOMENTS!  As soon as I popped my head out to take a picture, he asked me to stay outside with him --- so I did:))  It was a beautiful SUNNY day!!

{Josh came out too --- our moment ended up with throwing sand and then striping by the back door for a bath :((  }

Our 2nd MOMENT:  

This one was even longer ago than the 1st.  

Sometimes on Friday or Saturday nights we have been having MOVIE NIGHTS.  The kids LOVE them and ask for them all the time...especially for popcorn and gatorade:))  On this particular night I think we got pizza and then watched Wreck it Ralph...SUCH a cute movie!!!

{pardon his mouth full of popcorn:)}

MY Birthday:))

 

MY birthday was at the beginning of March.  This year it fell on the Friday before Spring Break --- the day could not have been any better!!!

 

My coworker Dalene made this beautiful spread for me and our class to enjoy for the day!

 

I took some cute pics with my AweSomE students --- you'll only get to see me though:))

 

My SPED team -- Mrs. Bosko and Mrs. Ledig :))

They were sooo sweet to bring me treats too!

 

My partners in crime in our room -- Dalene and Carol!  These gals rock and we have MAKE the most FUN days!  They even got me a massage during my plan time:)))



 

*********************************

 

Then....on the next Sat night, we all went down to our besties house for a game night ---- woo hoo!!!

Ashley made me a cake...see my candles, yep, I'm 32!

 

MY FAMILY! 

{boys were in pjs, because they were headed off to bed with the Tremaine boys:))}

 

Precious littles eyeing the yummy cake!

 

 

MY BESTEST FRIEND in the WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD!!!

 

 

 

I love these boys too --- even though I am ashamed to say they beat us in Wahoo --- DO NOT TELL THEM I SAID THAT!



Seriously.....this is the best game ever!!!!  I am a 3rd generation Wahoo player and it is soooo much FUN!  And I still laugh at thoughts back to our game night.  Ash and Jo are sooo much FUN:))

 

{we all get just a little competitive...we may or may not have lost --- and had to take a yucky shot!!  crazy boys!}



 

So...it was an AWESOME bday!!!  I got lots of cards in the mail and got to spend some Ashlee $$ and even got a lot of ME time to do it!! 

 

My friends and family are the BEST!!

Keegan's 4th Birthday PIRATE party!

Keegan had his 4th Birthday Party back in February.  He chose to have it at a FUN {indoor} treehouse this year and we had So Much Fun!  Jake and the Neverland Pirates was the theme he chose for #4!

Even though the party was not at the house, I made just few little decorations!  

Our PIRATE family of 4:))

Crazy pictures are soooooo much easier than smiling ones!

Here is the Birthday Boy at 4 vs. 3.  He is growing SOOO fast!!

These pic are from the party room.  We got to play in the treehouse for about an hour and then head to our room for cake and presents!

The 'Pirate' theme was a lot of fun!  There is not a close up but I LOVED the little sails on the cupcakes!

We had 'Pirate's GOLD' and 'Pirate Cannonballs' and 'Pirate Swords'

There was also 'Pirate Punch' to drink!

I did not get a pic of the CUTE goodie bags at the party, so here is a close-up of the one while I was making it! SOOO easy, but I LOVED them!!!

They all had tatoo's, color sheets, gold coin chocolates, and...

ONE OF THESE 

super yummy cookies inside.  My AWESOME coworker, Dalene, made these for K's party.  She worked so hard and matched them to his shirt!  She also made him the cutest little pirate chest that he LOVES to play with:))  Love you girl!!

My 4 year old Birthday Boy!!

K's loves Christie and invited her to join in on the coloring fun:))

Happy Birthday Keegan!!!!

Best Buds of ours - Joey and Ashley:))  BIG LOVE!
