The red headed Monster


This little car was the best 50 bucks I ever spent.  The kids love to give Georgia rides on it.

The Monster.  Yes, she looks sweet and innocent, but actually she is a terror.  She never stops moving and she cries all the time.  

Briggs last day of school


Briggs with Mrs. Cash and Ms. Munoz.  His wonderful preschool teachers that took him off my hands every day.

Briggs playing tee ball



The trophy to celebrate the end of the tee ball season. (I'm not sure why they do trophies since they don't actually keep score, but who am I to question)

Watching Briggs play was a joy.  He literally sauntered to first base, even with the coach yelling GO BRIGGS GO!  In the outfield he ran after every ball and fought his teammates to get it.  It was a crack up!


Dancing Queens


The last mosaic at Destiny Dance.  Ava did a hip-hop number and Grace was in a 70's costume.




Gracie's first dance class.  Is there anything cuter?!
