Swim School 2012

Ahhh.. another year of swim class completed.. The boys did AWESOME!! they accomplished things i never thought they would, but prayed they would and once again surprised me! Like learning to swim on their own, conquer heights, learn to dive, and build a great confidence in themselves and the water.. classes went by so fast, but now I think theyre ready for some swimming for Dad's pond when we go up Monday! Proud of you guys! Youre growin up! :D

Thomas' 5Th Grade Graduation

Thomas had his 5Th grade Elementary Graduation Ceremony this morning.. CAN"T believe the time has come for THAT already! Off to Middle School in the fall.. After the wonderful ceremony, Me the boys and friends and family all headed out to First Watch Restaurant for some celebratory Brunch and cake.. Thankfully in the fall the boys will continue to go to school together at the new Charter school opening up by our house.. May the brotherly bonds continue!! ♥ ♥ ♥  

Relaying For Life 2012

Went to Relay For Life today to walk with my team, and sweeties, and prayed the rain would hold off, but seems just didnt want to listen ..I know we needed it, but still a bit bummed I didn't get to walk as much as I had wanted to.. The boys had fun checking out the different sponsors, and teams like his Tae Kwon Do teacher that was there, and chatted with him and used their bouncer, hung at our team and made some new friends, and was just a great experience for them I think.. were told we had to go sit on our cars till the rain let up {around 1 am} so drove the boys home where the sun came out..:( went to go back , but everyone packed up n went home.. Next year.. will kill it next year for sure! :)

Thomas had a great time celebrating his birthday at the Clearwater Aquarium with his friends and enjoyed some cupcakes the day before at school with his friends and after had  a great cake with Grandma and the family that was made with love by Brendan who mixed it, Mom who baked it, and Dad who iced it.. His brother personally picked out his presents and a card to tell how much he loves him which brought tears to his eyes.. Can't believe he's a "pretween' already! The time just flies by all too quickly! August he will be attending Middle School with the big kids ! Where does the time go?
