Lemonade/Koolaide Stand

Lauren, Haley Ruff and Lucy Munoz decided to do a lemonade stand. But it actually turned in to a koolaide/fruit snack stand. Mind you the fruit snacks came from the house and Lauren says she really doesn't need to pay us for the fruit snacks. Since she lives in the house and we should all share. HAHA !! They charged $.50 a glass and $.25 for fruit snacks. They somehow managed to make $17. I think most people that drove by and stopped wouldn't take change.
They were outside for 2 hours and only came in the house once. They had a fabulous time and want to do it again next weekend.

First Day of school...

Here is sit in my totally quiet house. Only thing I can hear is my dogs snoring. People will say to me that Walker was in school last year but this just seems so different. Seems so permanent, which it is just not ready for him or her for that matter to grow up. They had a great first morning. Lauren was excited that her brother is going to be at her school. She kept talking to him about what he should and should not do. She told him last night then when he goes to the bath room to PLEASE make sure he pulls his pants up before he comes out. HAHA ! I think that is so she wont get embarrassed. Even though at home he pulls his pants up she just needed to make clear that he knew.
Walker says he already is in love with Mrs Harris. He came down twice last night asking what her name was again. He keeps calling her Mrs DeVarris ( his pre-k teacher was Mrs Devore who he adored.)He will figure it out sooner then later I am sure. We are so blessed to have her as his teacher.
Lauren has Mrs Culp. I have heard nothing but fabulous things about her. She has a few kids from her class last year in with her. Also has her good friend Marin. Which she was super excited about. I cant believe that we have a 3rd grader. Where has the time gone ??
At this point Walker so over us taking pictures. He was ready to get in the building and get started.



Yes I know that Lauren's backpack is almost as big as she is but she had to have this messenger bag from Justice. She went only with her Daddy to pick it out. She was so happy with what she found.

I love this pic of Walker. It shows all of the excitement on his face. He's so ready. Lets see how he is come the end of the week and he's exhausted.
This is going to be a great year for both of the kids. We love them so much and so happy for them both.

Mixed Emotions..

I have to admit that I am so sad to see my sweet baby boy go to kindergarten tomorrow morning. He is ready and so excited.. its hard not to be excited for him. He told me at Meet the Teacher that I can go ahead and leave him. He even told his sister that she "needed to get out of his space". Ha.. it was extremely hard for her to stand back and not be the center of attention. I know that he will be awesome but hes the one that I worry about sometimes.

We totally forgot the camera on Friday so tomorrow we have to get lots of pics..

PTA Mom's gone wild..

I was one of the lucky ones (ha)that got to got to go to Austin for the PTA state convention. The day before we left our beloved PTA president was unable to attend due to an illness in her family. So in the words of Shelley Harralla we were TOTALLY "unsupervised". Which needless to say didn't say much.. we were all pretty low key. It was alot of fun getting to know some of the other gals on the board with me. We had lots of laughs and I guess you could say we learned a little.

My sweet friend Mel Crosby who was there with Allen Elementary. We miss her so at Bledsoe. Sweet sweet lady.. LOVE her
After the day of training was over we made our way over to see Carrie Ruff's Dad play in his Hobo band. They were AWESOME.. I got the biggest kick out of her Dad on the microphone. He loved the spotlight. Every time he would start to talk Carrie and her sisters would all roll their eyes. Too funny !!!


All in all it was a fabulous weekend. I left having made closer friendships to some great ladies.

HELL

Need I say more.......

Cheer Camp

This is Lauren's 2nd year to cheer for the Dolphins FFL squad. She LOVES every minute of it. Loves all the girls and LOVES her coaches. We are so happy that she has finally found something that she truly likes. She played soccer and that was not her thing. Bless her heart she played for 4 seasons and only scored one goal. So between soccer and dance she has found her calling.



Lauren with her BFF Emma. They are 2 crazy girls.
All of the girls before the went in for cheer camp. It's going to be a great season. GO DOLPHINS !!!
