Jackson's Birthday Party

We hosted a birthday party for our new neighbors and their son, Jackson, on his 8th birthday. Roy made the caterpillar cake and we decorated a little. Jackson was so impressed with his cake, it was so cute. He almost didn't want us to cut it because he wanted to look at it. Of course, he is a boy and he finally decided he would like to eat it!

Look at that smiling face! That made it worth the time and effort!

Fun In The Sun

Our community had a big party on Saturday to kick off the summer fun. We had sub sandwiches, chip and cookies and a Christian group came and sang. There was also face painting and balloons for the kids. We all had a good time but it was soooo hot. We didn't last as long out there as we had hoped.

Caleb's Kindergarten Graduation

I can't believe Caleb is old enough to be graduating from kindergarten. He has had such a great year with Mrs Queen and is very sad to have to leave her class. Caleb won several awards including the National Presidential Fitness Award and Renaissance Award.

Caleb walking in to the graduation program. (Each class filed in separately) He was trying his best not to smile! This is Caleb making sure he could see us from his seat while Mrs Gurganus was talking to the guests.
The classes all performed several songs for us and recited a poem before the awards were given out. Look at my baby getting down!
This was more just to give you a perspective of the whole group. Caleb is on the front row on the right side.
