Growing Up Too Fast!

Big B at A's house for her birthday party! He bought her 13 beautiful Gerber Daisies. I told him on the way over if he didn't want to give her the flowers he could give them to me!! He didn't go for it:o(
Big B and the gang heading up to the door. I know it sounds silly but they really are growing up way too fast!!! It almost hurts when I say he is in 8th grade, time really does fly.

One Proud MaMa!!

Little B receiving the Presidential Fitness Award. There were certain criteria that he had to meet in order to receive this award!! He is getting the award from our awesome PE teacher Mrs. B!!
Getting his AR Award. Each book that he reads has a point value they accumulate all year. Twice a year they have an AR store that the kids can buy things with their AR points it is really cool!! He had 176 point!!
Little B got the Citizenship Award this year for his class. His class voted and the teacher as well. One boy and one girl are chosen. This is based on a child's character traits and the way they treat others. WOW so very very proud buddy!!
Last but not least Honor Roll!! Keep it up bud!!
Little B and his WONDERFUL teacher Miss G!!
She is a great teacher and we feel very lucky to have had her!!

I work at the same school that Little B goes to and I did not know about any of these except the AR one!! It was one of those fight back the tears days so the kids around me didn't think I was crazy (well or at least confirm their suspicions!!) I am so PROUD of all he accomplished this year. Way to go buddy keep up your awesome spirit and the WONDERFUL YOU that God made!!!!

Party Time

Aunt R, Cousin Z, and Uncle M

I love when this gang gets together. We don't get to see them as often as we would like but when the kids get together they pick up right where they left off. It is so much fun to watch them together.

Cousin E and Baby B had a lot of fun!!

The 4 boys all dressed up! Z and Baby B! These two are double trouble when they are together but they sure have a lot of fun!!

Cousin Z graduated from High School this year which meant time for a family party!! Their house was full of family it was good to see everyone. The kids had a great time playing with cousins as usual. Cousin Z will be entering the field of Nursing this fall. He was awarded one of the scholarships given out during the graduation ceremony. It was definitely a fun night!! I can't believe we will be having the next graduation party next year for Big B!

Cousin H's Play!!

Cousin H is second from the left.

Our Broom!!!

The last scene!

My niece was in a production of Beauty and the Beast this past weekend and we went down to watch. She did a GREAT job we were so proud of her!! It was Baby B's first play and she did pretty good except for the loud announcement of her needing to go poop!
