2016 Class Photos

Star Student

We received a call from the school on Friday that Olivia got Star Student of her class for the month.  It was a secret so we couldn't tell her.  The parents came and hid in a room.  The students were seated for the assembly and then parents came in the back.  The kids saw us by then of course but with my when you have three kids...which one is it?   

Olivia was announced for her class; I didn't get a picture with her teacher because I video taped it.  She stood up in front of the school proud as could be.

Here are all the star students for the month.

Gramie and Poppi were there too.

Mommy and Olivia; so proud!

Olivia worked hard all year for this.  She was very deserving for sure!  Nice job Olivia!  You are forever a Star in our eyes and hearts!

Family Filled Weekend

The Farm Chicks Show was this weekend.  Mom and Dad came to see what they could find!

Tracy, Gramie and Kimmie came too.

We all hung out most of the weekend.  Gramie captured this great photo of the kids with Nana and Papa.  So sweet.

We did attempt a family photo.  Sophie and Olivia are looking pretty as ever.

All the kids are so sweet...they get along so well.

Gramie got a silly picture of the kids.  Funny!

This one turned out great!

Cute photo of Gramie with her grandkids.

Poppi and Gramie photo...love this!

Olivia practiced her pitching...she got to pitch her first game this week.

Look at that form!

The kids cooled off in the sprinkler...it was a hot one!

Olivia loves the water!

So fun!

Lily joined the kids too.  She is so sweet.

We had a June Birthdays celebration with a crab and shrimp feed.  All the kids loved the food.  Look how grown up they look in the big chairs.

Elle, Olivia, Emma and Ceci all have June birthdays.

Elle is turning 7, Olivia and Emma turned 10 and Ceci turned 11.

Emma got lots of gifts.

Olivia did too!

We just lined their gifts up and off they went!  So fun!  Love that we could all get together.  It was a great weekend!

Ten Years Old!!!

Olivia and Emma are TEN!!!

They came home from school excited to open their presents.

What did you get girls?

They tore into them right after dinner.

Olivia looks excited.

Emma looks happy.

Oh my!  Olivia got her first gun!

Emma's first gun too!

Proud Daddy.

They also got bullets.  They are ready!

Then we had some ice cream cake.

Happy Birthday to you!

Blow out those candles.

Marcus loves his sisters.

10 years old and still a messy cake eater :-)

That's a big piece Emma!

Happy 10th Birthday girls!!!

Emma's Last Select Choir Concert

Emma performed her last Select Choir concert.  It was a cute little play about a cat and rat set in Jamaica.  She had a speaking part and a dancing part and even played the bars!

Then they sang their songs from the festival they did a few months ago...they sounded beautiful.

Emma looked so pretty and sang pretty too.

The group performed at both elementary schools so Olivia and Marcus got to see it too.  They also performed in the evening but Marcus had a baseball game so I went to the morning performance at Chattaroy so Marc could see the evening performance...it worked out well.

Mrs. Sweeney wanted a quick photo with the kids.

Lexie, Emma and Olivia.

Mrs. Sweeney had to jump in too; these girls are headed to 5th grade next which is at Riverside Elementary so they won't get to see Mrs. Sweeney much next year...sad.

Javin and Marcus supported their sisters very well.  Nice job boys!
