Busy Time of Year

I am so thankful that this time of year is busy!  We have been going non-stop this past week.  Hunter and Ashton started swim lessons last Monday.  Hunter is loving putting his face in the water (finally!!!!).  Ashton actually put his mouth, nose, and eyes in the water for a split second too.  We are still working on his whole head.  Overall, I have already seen improvement so hopefully next week will go just as well.

 Thursday was Ashton's last day of "preschool".  He only goes Tuesday and Thursdays from 9-1 but it will be fun to have him home (I dont know if Shep is looking forward to this though). Thursday, Ashton's school had their 4 year old graduation. They make such a big deal of it (remember Hunter's graduation.) Though Ash doesnt graduate until next year, all the kids from 1 up to 5 put on a little program.  They were all so cute singing and reciting Bible verses. 



 
Ashton's whole class--- the 3 year olds.

We got Hunter out of school so we could watch.  They loved it.  Shep was clapping!
The 3 year olds and the 4 year old graduates.
 Friday night was the tball banquet.  It was supposed to be  a pool party but the weather was iffy so it was moved to the church gym.  Here they are getting their trophys.

 And Saturday was just beautiful.  We kind of just wanted to hang at home so we bought a little inflatable pool and put it below the slide... this was a hit 2 years ago or was it last year?  Anyway, this provided about 2 hours of fun.

He was going so fast it threw him our of the pool


Shep loved this!  He was too small to do it last time.  He went totally under a couple times and after the shock, just laughed it off.

Hunt's up




Hunter demonstrating holding his breath... I am so glad he can finally do this!
Today, I get to go to my sister in laws baby shower... so excited to meet baby Sami in 4 weeks or so.  I made her baby gift and will post it next week! 

Happy Sunday!  :)

  1. I'm thinking the pool needs to happen when we visit. Except my non-thrill seeking Luke probably won't go within ten feet of the slide! Great pictures! Can't wait to see you!

  3. Looks so fun! Gotta love the simple things that keep em entertained for hours. We were talking to Owen about baseball last night and how Hunter and Ashton played, and Caelum said, "Ashton!"
