Kindegarten Orientation

Oh my goodness, my little Boo is going to kindegarten in the fall. We had orientation at the school. Where Nicole got a nice goody bag of supplies. She got to meet her teacher, go into her classroom, meet her classmates and go for her first ever bus ride. She loved it and cannot wait to go to school. I am so excited for her. She is going to love school. Yes my heart breaks that my little baby is getting big but so proud of her and excited for her!

Kelly's Graduation!

Garden

This year we planted some peppers, cucumbers, watermelons, canteloupes and onions! Thought we would try different things. The cukes and the watermelons are the only thing growing so far! We really wanted the peppers!
Nicole did such a great job helping! This year she has really grown alot and has been so helpful and involved in things. My Boo is getting so big.

Nicole and I just put on the movie Madagascar 2...the penguins were on. The lead penguin is Skipper....he makes all the plans and is in charge. Nicole says to me "Momma you know who is Skipper?" "Grampy is, because he is the smartest one and Skipper is the smartest one."
Thought you might like that one Grampy!!!!!!!!!!!

Mothers Day

As always my husband and daughter make sure that i always get a great mothers day...did it again. We went to Maine for a couple of days and had an absolute wonderful time. We started with Nubble Light of course, then stayed at Anchorage Inn right on York Beach. I absolutely love Maine and we had such an amazing time there. Hopefully next year we can do the same!!!!!!



We took a ride to Kennebunk..the views are amazing here. We walked around these cliffs that were so scary. I got frozen trying to walk to the rocks...BUT i did it! So pretty here!




Nicole and Daddy racing to the beach!


Daddy being gross..UGH


My Boo and I at Ogunquit Beach, this beach is so beautiful. The sand is so soft and goes for miles. The town was quaint, really liked it here


Poor Daddy and his broken hand...after this week he took his cast off he couldnt take it anymore!


The beautiful lilacs in front of the hotel...they were magenta lilacs! Loved them!


Family time!


Nicole loves the beach..but the water was so cold i only let her in it for a minute!!


Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Duke!





Today we went to the Baypath Humane Shelter and wanted to see if there was any dogs that we "might" be interested in...and low and behold...there was Duke. A sweet, gentle older dog. He is 8 years old, has a bit of anxiety seperation...they say he can tear through a house if left alone. They are getting us a crate that will help us. He is so sweet.
