Austin's Last Day of School-2nd Grade






My little man has graduated from 2nd grade. No more S, S-, s+..3rd grade is all grades. The innocence is somewhat gone. 3rd grade seems so much older! But he's ready for it. Mohawk says it all.
Congrats Austin!

Piano Recital


My visiting teacher/dear friend Jean is amazing. Truly the most self-less person I know. She is always so giving and loving. She definitely thinks of others before herself. All the time. Most recently, she gave Ashley and Austin the slap watches and totally surprised them. She's also given fun towels, flashlights, books, toys, Life is Good Tshirts, babysat, countless dinners, attended Dr.'s appts/hospitals with me, baked me goods, Anthropologie hat, Juicy perfume....the list goes on. Am I spoiled or what? Thanks Jean for your kindness and all the good for both me and the kiddos!!!






This year is special, my third Spring Piano Recital since I've been teaching. But what's special about it, is that it's the first one where my kiddos performed! Ashley played Mary Had a Little Lamb and Austin Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. They did great! And all of my students rocked. I am so proud of them! And very proud to be a mom to two kiddos that played the piano! yay!

Mohawk Man!


I don't know what's cuter....the fact that Ashley painted on some eyebrows, or that she was so pleased she made a building out of blocks!

It's the last week of school, and I went to give Austin a regular boy haircut, when he annonced he wanted a MOHAWK. It didn't take long for me to get excited about this. Really Austin? Yep. So he went from schoolboy to Apache overnight!


For Family Home Evening on Monday night, Austin organized, presented a great lesson and made Fruit sushi for the refreshment! He got the recipe out of the Friend Magazine and followed it and everything. Maybe this can become a routine...


90% angel.

Summer's coming...


Ash got some new sunglasses at JUSTICE..her new favorite store. Accessories, accessories, accessories!

Catwort School of Science and Magic






Austin was able to go to the Catwort Science/Magic camp and loved it! He made a "Sir Farts-a-Lot" and loved the science.
This week they also signed up for GRizzlies tackle football again for the fall. Ash will be cheering her brother on this year as a first year cheerleader. Go Grizzlies!!!

Ashley's Hip Hop Dance Class-Piedmont






This girl's got Bieber Fever!!! She loved rocking out at this hip hop class at Piedmont Clubhouse! For part of the "free dance" Ash busted into the splits!

3rd Port, Naval Dockyards-Bermuda













2nd Port Bermuda, ST GEORGE





















St. George is the epitome of Bermuda. That's the city where you feel like you're there. This is the 2nd time I've taken a cruise to Bermuda and I love the pastel homes, limestone roofs, fancy British feel.
