Our Soccer Star

Katelyn had an unbelievable evening playing soccer tonight. She scored 3 goals and, lucky for me, I caught the most impressive one on video. Enjoy!

Spring Operetta

This years Operetta was entitled "Power" and took place both Fri. and Sat. night. The following is a video of Katelyn's class performing their song.

Club Kicks Recital Pics




Today was Katelyn's end of year recital for Club Kicks and she made us so proud. We weren't allowed to take pictures of the recital itself but we snapped these afterwards with my niece Alyssa. You were FANTASTIC Katelyn!!

Happy Mother's Day



In all seriousness, I just wanted to take a minute to tell all of my friends and family who also happen to be Mothers, "WE ROCK!" I could go on and on about how blessed we are to have our children (which we most definitely are), but I'd much rather say, mother to mother, that they are so blessed to have us :) When I think about the things that we endure as Moms and the sacrifices that we ALL make I have to say "I AMAZE MYSELF!" Go ahead, and admit it. YOU ARE ALL AWESOME!! I am not trying to be self indulgent here but just 100% honest with myself. I just wish that on those mornings when I am sitting at home with my kids and they are driving me insane, that I could appreciate myself more and stop criticizing myself for every parenting flaw that I have. I don't know about all of you, but isn't it easier for us to put ourselves down as parents on a regular basis then to take a step back and realize that we are MAGNIFICENT women?! I have decided that this is the one day of the year when I am going to try my hardest to appreciate myself as much as my kids appreciate me :) Have a FANTASTIC Mother's Day!

Happy May Day!

Last weekend we went to a photo party where we had pics taken of the goobs! They turned out really cute. Here are a few of my favorites:








If you'd like to check out all the shots click on the web album below. Please ignore Katelyns shifty eyes. She was behaving a bit crazy that day :) The kids weren't big fans of the "together" shots.



Thanks so much Jeannie for hosting the party! If anyone would like prints please email or call me. I have the rights to the photos and can print off anything you would like!
