1st Visit from the Tooth Fairy

I can't believe my "baby" has lost his 1st tooth. Wow, where has the time gone?? It just seems like yesterday he was getting his first teeth. I cried when he first told me it was loose. I know that sounds crazy but that is a big sign he is growing up.
Anyway, he lost his tooth when I was out. He was very excited to put it under his pillow but didn't want the tooth fairy to take it. He wants to keep his teeth (very much like his mother). So we wrote a note asking the tooth fairy not to take his tooth but to please leave a gift. The next morning he found a note back to him and some Star Wars legos. The tooth fairy always gives big gifts for the 1st tooth:)
We love you Caden!!!

Mother's Day

We went to Burlington and spent time with the MawMaw's. We had a cook out and played outside. It was a lot of fun!!! On Mother's day we went to Uncle Norman's lake house. It was Carter's 1st boat ride. He liked it. He even fell asleep. What a great weekend celebrating being a mom!!!

Strawberry picking

We went down the street to Page Farms to pick some yummy strawberries. Grandpa and Grandpa came too. The kids had to find all of the juicy, red ones. That wasn't a problem because they all looked great!!! We had a lot of fun. Sorry Carter, you can eat some next time!!!

Awanas award's night

Caden moved up to Sparks this year at Awanas. He really loved going this year. His book was a lot harder but he loved memorizing his verses each week. He loved keeping up with everybody else's progress. He does love competition. Wonder where he gets that from????
We got to go and celebrate his accomplishments in Awanas this year. Caroline loved all of the singing and can't wait until she can be a Cubbie next year!!!!

A Rainy day!!!

It was a rainy day so I decided to take the kids to the library. They had to wear thier rain boots. It ended up not raining very much so we were able to play on the playground at the library too!!!
