Chess's Kindergarten End-of-Year Party

Mrs. Troughton is the BEST teacher and we all love her so much!  We are going to miss having her next year.  She has taught Chess so much and loved her, as well.


Her award was for giving the best"Warm-Your-Heart Hugs."

Lera had to jump up there and get a hug too!


What a fun party!

First Swim of the Year

Mimi and Poppy opened their new pool!  We all went over and had our first swim of the season.  It was freezing, but so fun!



Lera's Joy School Graduation


We've had a fun year with these cute kids!


Happy Mother's Day to me!

I also got some chocolates and balloons, as well as a nice breakfast from my girls and husband!

Soccer is Over

The season of soccer is now finished.  I wish I could have seen Lera play more, but hers and Chess's games were almost all at the same time.  Jared said she played amazing her last two games and scored several goals!  I loved watching Chess play - she did a great job on defense and has gotten much more confident playing.  She even scored a goal at the last game!

Vogel with Ka-Kaw and Family

Ka-Kaw, Steve, and Kacy were able to come visit Georgia recently.  We had tons of fun with them.  We all went to Vogel and had a great day in the creek, kayaking, eating, and relaxing.
