Field Day

 

 

 

 

Today was Sara's first field day! It started with an awesome relay race that looked like about a mile of running devided among 20 team members. Then continued with lots of really fun obstacle course races. We were all cheering Sara on from the sidelines, except for Clayton, who decided he needed to be a part of all the action. At the very end they decided to let the parents compete in tug of war. I was in the very front and felt like I was water skiing! I chose to let go of the rope rather than land face first in the kiddie pool, and Sara reminded me the rest of the afternoon that the most important rule is don't let go of the rope!

6 Years and Counting

Saturday was our 6th Wedding Anniversary. Even though things are still pretty crazy a great friend volunteered to watch the kids for FREE so we could spend some time together. Jason took me to eat Pha, my favorite! Then we went and hung out at the Galleria for a while looking for an anniversary present for me, but had no luck. Finally we went to the craft store and I got some supplies I have been wanting for a while to make hair bows. All in all a great afternoon. Oh, and for his anniversary I got Jason a new wedding ring.

One more mountain climbed!

May 15.2010 Jason received his law degree from Southern Methodist University. Even though the day was extremely hectic and I almost missed the graduation ceremony and the kids were bouncing off the walls the entire time, I hope that Jason felt our love and support! I was proud of him for all of his hard work and dedication and very grateful for the sacrifices he made throughout law school to continue to be a great husband and father. I hope to have some pictures soon but I forgot my camera. Now on to the next mountain which feels even bigger and impossible to climb, the BAR Exam. I know he will survive and I have great confidence in him that he will pass it, but will the kids and I survive? Time can only tell. Oh, and by the way, can someone tell me how to relocate our lives to a more flat area with no more mountains! I don't know how much further I can climb!

Sara's School Celebration

Happy 5th Birthday Sara!!

My sweet angel is 5 years old today! I cannot believe how big she is! I am so lucky to have her in my life! We decided to not do a birthday party this year. Jason is busy graduating law school and I still haven't quite gotten the hang of being a working mom so we celebrated her birthday in three days instead of just one!
Friday we went to the American Girl Store which we only go to once a year.

Saturday we went Barbie shopping and to lunch.

And Sunday we had a very nice dinner at home.
