It was the last day of 1st grade!

Ella did great until she ate then she promptly threw up her pizza and juice box - in the floor - on the last day of school! She ended up eating a popsicle that came back up - in the car - on the way to Mimi and Pop's house. Oh well, we will remember the last day of FIRST GRADE! Her teacher, Ms. Sherrod, was gracious enough to stand next to her for a picture - even after the vomiting! She had a great year. I hope 2nd grade is just as successful!

Jude's graduation

big buddies that have been in class together since they were 2

One of Jude's teachers

brother/sisterly love

buddies since birth

Nana and Pepaw made it!

Jude rock and rolled through his graduation program. I know he didn't miss a beat and I am pretty sure he didn't miss a word either. They sang a song of the 50 states as well as the Old and New Testaments. We will do it all over again next year since he's not going to Kindergarten. I am sure it will be just as good the second time around!!

Soccer Star

Her buddy on the other team...that beat them - twice!
The gang is all here!

maybe he was getting bored?

He can kick and eat at the same time.

or just a girl that liked to play soccer. I feel so far removed from when soccer even was that details are hard for me to remember! I do know she was a hard worker but also that she never scored. As usual, the snacks made the game worth while and the boys liked going to cheer her on.

I have not abandoned my blog!

My computer has crashed and so I can't get any pictures off of my card to put on here...and what fun are posts with no pictures. So, stay tuned for Ella's soccer (no good reason I hadn't posted about that but I was just being lazy and now can't get to the pics), crawfish boil, beach trip, Jude's birthday, beach trip, Gabe's supervision techniques and just the lazy hazy crazy days of Summer! This was more of a list for myself than for anyone interested in reading.
