Ash's Treasure chest sticker placement card

Ash loves this book in her classroom!

They have a board about What Do you Want to Be WHen you Grow up? Ash wants to be a Mom! yay!


Her teachers, Ms. Reedy and Mrs. Goff.




This program kills me each year. When Austin did this I was in tears and now that my last did it for the last time I was a sweet mess! I love the songs the kids sing about their moms and the extra special care the preschool gives us moms. I love you Ash!

Early Mother's Day Surprise

Fritz (Duane, Jonathan) is such a sweet heart. Before he left back to Baghdad, he wanted to make sure that we celebrated Mother's Day because he was going to be gone for the big day. So, the kids left and came back with treats! I received a Wegmans vanilla cake (my fav), pink flowers, cards and a new camcorder! My other one was dead and I hated missing anything the kids did! Then he took us all out to dinner. What a great surprise! Thanks honey! You make me feel like a great Mom!

Charleston for Spring Break!

We love visiting Grandma and Grandpa and Uncle Ray in Charleston, SC. The week is filled with:
Playstation 3, Buddy and Jack (the dogs) Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla Ice cream, Krispy Kreme Donuts, Downtown market, Pralines, front porch swinging and reading, Thomlinsons, Sullivans Island, River Street Sweets, warmth, Easter Eggs hunts, true down home southern cooking, a few pounds gained and lots and lots of LOVE.

Under Water Easter Egg Hunt @ Piedmont

So the Piedmont Club this year did an Awesome activity for Easter. An underwater hunt! For kids 6-9. Austin had a blast!!

Kindergarten Registration

Ashley has had an amazing 2 years at Haymarket Baptist Church Preschool. We are all SO SAD as a family to leave such a phenomenal school. Ash is SO ready for Kingergarten though! This spring we filled out the paperwork and she's ready to start Sept 2011 as a big Kindergartener! She held her head high as she walked the halls today. We packed a lunch to eat with Austin during his lunch break and she sat right down with the rest of them!
