Gran turns 90!

I have been so fortunate in my life that my mom's parents have been a constant in my life. We have always lived in the same town and for the most part, always gone to the same church. They are precious people that have been such a huge part of my life. This weekend we had a party for Gran's 90th birthday. Actually we had 2 parties, one Friday night and the other was Saturday afternoon. Friday night we met at Franke's for supper and then Saturday was the big party. We enjoyed getting to celebrate her and her 90th birthday. It was quite an occassion because only 12 of the grandchildren, grandchildren's spouses or great grandchildren were not there. Out of a group of 90ish that is pretty amazing. Here are some of the pictures to remember such a fantastic event.

Field Trips

I can't believe that the end of the school year is already here!!!! Didn't it just start? Wow the time is flying! The end of the year brings field trips, and fortunately the kids didn't have overlapping days!

On Tuesday I went with Brock and the 1st Graders to the zoo. Despite my dislike of the zoo, we had a great day. I got to hang out with Nancy and the 5 kids we were in charge of so we had a lot of fun.

On Thursday I went with Claire's class to the Museum of Discovery and to Peabody Park. They had a great time and I got a great nap! During the "Go Green" Presentation I had moved to let the kids see better. I woke up to the faces of five kids staring at me saying "Mrs. Jill you fell asleep!" So I am not a tree hugger!

Also, both kids earned their way to go to "Main Event" that was held at War Memorial Stadium. It was so much fun! They had different games set up that kids from Robinson High School came and worked for us. The kids were able to run around on the field for an hour. I think this will be a yearly event! I even got in on some of the action!

We have been so blessed this year to have great teachers and great classmates! I hate to see this year end!

Easter 2010

This year for Easter we had a great day at Sheila & Ben's house. We had an amazing lunch and then the kids had an Easter egg hunt. Unfortunately, Mom had the flu and didn't get to join us. We did get lots of great pictures though.

Going Private

Hey everyone, I have been getting crazy messages on here so I am going private. If you still read this and are wanting to be included in my list let me know so I can add you. I will be doing this on Sunday so let me know!

Wye Mountain 2010

I have meant to take the kids to Wye Mountain for the last several years, but for some reason it never worked out where we could go. This year I was determined to get them out there and take their pictures. The weather was cool and the wind was blowing most of the time we were there, but I did get some great shots. I was really excited about some so I wanted to post them...

Spring Break Cousins Golf Tournament

We did our 2nd annual Cousins Golf Tournament on Wednesday and as always had a great time. This year Dad decided that he didn't want to miss out on the fun so he joined in too. We had so much fun and Kayely and I gave out our "award" which NeeNee won again. We are already planning our next adventure so we are excited about that!
