A Good Night (for once)

Connor wanted to see Ponyo for the FHE activity last night so that was on the schedule. I picked the boys up after work and...they got right in the car (crazy!) and we went home and had the FHE lesson on Following Jesus. Both the boys were so good..both sang and offered to say the prayers & made thoughtful comments duing the lesson (crazy!) We had dinner and everyone got along and helped clean up (crazy!) We packed up our treats and headed to the movie and had a great time.

I get sooo frustrated on a daily basis with them fighting and not listening when I ask them to do things. It was so nice to enjoy our time together instead of it being miserable with everything being difficult. Thank you boys!

P.S. A favorite quote from Wyatt during the lesson..."Jesus is like Handy Manny. He helps everyone and fixes anything."

Oh nothing really......

Summer has been zooming by without much posting going on... Here's a few pics taken this weekend. We went to the buffet at Sam's Town and Connor said the food he got was his 2nd favorite and that his mom's cooking was #1. Gotta love that kid. me with my "sweet angels" aka naughty little suckers

The Duke's know all about this pic......we all watched Wyatt sneaking jello out of the serving dish when we "weren't looking." Robin finally just got it down for him to finish. Can't really tell in the pic, but the bowl & spoon are huge.

Is no new news, good news??

Kindergarten Ceremony

Wyatt kept making funny faces at Connor during most of the program. I could hear the other kids telling Connor how funny his little brother was. That kid...........Mrs. Weimheimer is such a great teacher!!!!Connor & ClarkConnor & Miss Grace

My parents, Robin & I all went and watched Connor's Kindergarten Program & they did such a great job singing! I'll have to post a video of the song they sang...so dang cute.

This year Connor has grown up so much! He can read so well & I swear he soaks up anything his teacher says! "mom did you know the people in Germany ride bikes & trains to work?" "did you know when you sneeze your germs go as far as a whole elephant?" I love it! And I love his teacher for the great job she did.

Sooo my mom calls and asked me how much money to put in Connor's card...ummm I don't remember her giving me any money when I got done with Kindergarten!! what the heck! Love you Mom!
