Celie turns 6!!!!!

 Can’t believe my baby is 6 already, wow!!

If you know Celie at all, you know her behavior is sub par to say the least. Well, she “lost” her birthday party at some point in the late spring. I was bound to make a point and really not let her have a “party”. All of my friends said I couldn’t do that, that she needed a party. So, I let her earn a sleepover back, but not a full fledged party. She was very happy to earn it back, not even sure how many consecutive hours she behaved well to get that back, but I caved and let her have 4 friends spend the night, so “it was not that big a deal!” 

Back to school

2015-2016

I can’t believe that the kids are back in school, but at the same time, I am so ready to get back to a routine. Don’t get me wrong, I HATE waking up early, but I am happy to have my day back and get some things done and exercise. For some reason, I have been talked into signing up for a half marathon on November in Savannah, so training has begun! Ugh!

Mason has Ms. Lacher/Celie has Ms. Howard/Buie has Ms. Ackerman

Boss & LuLu love to go to the bus stop

 Maysie (K), Mary (1st), Celie (1st), Molly (1st)

 Glad they were so happy the first day back. (it’s really because a boy tried to photo bomb the picture and he fell over some rocks and my kids couldn’t contain themselves)

 Most of the Backland Ridge kids that go to Sope Creek

Somerset swim team 2015

Well, not exactly all of my kids did it. I mean I paid for all of them to do it, but Celie only did the practice meet. She kicked and cried her way out of nay race she was signed up for. ( I was not happy)

 Of course the kids always wanted their backs decorated!

Inevitably there was always a rain delay! The boys did great this year, but I don’t think swimming is Celie’s sport. 

 

Celie had her dance recital down at Georgia Tech's Ferst Center. It was an amazing performance by all the dancers, but especially the company dancers. Amazing what these young kids can do. 

Mother’s Day Home run!

Both boys had a baseball game on Mother’s Day and they both won! Buie put the cherry on top with an over the fence home run. It was his first one ever and he was soooo excited! It made for a great Mother’s Day, proud momma!
