But, gotta jump back in sometime, so my cuties at Halloween seemed a good place to start!! :)</i><br />
<br />
<u>October 31, 2014- Halloween</u><br />
This was the year mommy finally lost... no more coordinated outfits, no more homemade ideas, no more originality. This year we were- <i>literally</i>- dressed up the same as thousands of other trick or treaters.<br />

<i><b><span style="font-size: large;">And a Ninja.</span></b></i> Lincoln wins a couple points bc he opted for "stealth Ninja" over "Ninja Turtle"... but that's only bc the Ninja Turtle costume at Party City was way big and way itchy!<br />

At the last minute I decided to join in the dressing up, so I pinned some felt "buttons" on my white puffer vest, wore white pants and tied an orange party hat around my nose... <b>Olaf! </b>And I DO like warm hugs from my girls :)</div>

So, as it got dark and the kids started racing door to door for trick or treating, I realized I'd made a major costuming mistake- do you see Lincoln in the picture below?? <b><i>No</i></b>... that's because a Stealth Ninja is dressed to be invisible in the dark... like when trick or treating.... swathed in black from head to toe. So- if your kid wants to be a Ninja, I recommend the kind of Ninja that wears WHITE, not Black... very lucky we didn't lose that boy that night! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Racing door to door... thankfully our new neighborhood has lots of cul de sacs, so we parents could basically stand in the middle of the circle while the kids did a loop, and not get left in the candy-dust!</div>

Did I mention Grammie was with us? Somehow she escaped the picture taking earlier... probably wrestling kids into place! Here's a quick shot, just to prove she was there! :)</div>

When we got back to the house- this is exactly what Rosemary did! Took off her shoes, got her water, and plopped on the floor! She was Pooped!! She ran hard, keeping up with the big kids all night, door to door to door. And she didn't want anyone else to hold her candy bag, so she lugged it with her. (I guess she didn't trust us with it- wonder why?! ;)</div>

We already had a load of candy, but our night wasn't over! We rallied Rosemary and headed over to join our friends the Bernardo's- their neighborhood does a great "haunted trail" in the woods- and we might have trick or treated just a bit more!!<br />
Even though this Halloween wasn't homemade or matching, I've learned to just <b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Let It Go</span></i></b>.... ;)Kathrynhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08143957653084972578noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4011265461943088135.post-43981625917714472392014-06-27T23:30:00.001-04:002014-06-27T23:34:12.264-04:00Celebrating El Nino's 3rd!<i>Monday, June 16th</i><br />
On Monday morning (June 16th- I'm a little behind- as usual!) we all gave Rosemary big hugs and wished her Happy Birthday! Her response was the same to us all- "It's not my bir-day... my bur-day June 16th!" I guess after talking about it for weeks, she wasn't ready for it to actually happen! Later we headed to the store to get some birthday cupcakes. She picked out little vanilla ones where the frosting looked like a star. After that she was VERY excited about it being her "bur-day"!!<br />
Finally after daddy got home it was time- star cupcakes and presents! Even though I'm so sad to see my baby growing up, I'm glad she decided to have a birthday!! :)<br />

<b><i>Wednesday, May 28th</i></b><br />
Everything about a Preschool graduation is adorable! The kids in their sweet 5-year old voices and lisps, reciting Bible verses and belting out fun songs, the silly smirks and awesome dance moves they just can't keep in despite the "serious" occasion, their proud little faces as they finally cross the stage and come down to the stairs to the even prouder families. Small Blessings doesn't do the whole cap and gown bit for the performance, but they have it at the reception for pictures and the kids love "dressing up". It's -of course- adorable!!<br />
Georgia was full of good advice and helpful hints to Lincoln before graduation- basically telling him every little thing that happened at hers! Having a big sister can be so informative!! I finally explained to her that he needed the chance to have his own experience... I'm sad to think Rosemary won't have the same experience, but she lived vicariously through Linc this year- she was practically part of his class! I had to drag her out of the room at every drop off and pick up, and Ms Annette and Ms Shannon were great about letting her participate in several fun events with the class. Rosemary insisted on having her own picture taken with Ms Annette at the graduation reception!<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Lincoln got chosen for two "mic moments"- and he was so excited to get that chance, not nervous or embarrassed in the least! The kid was made for the stage... At the very beginning, after Molly and Tommy did the welcome remarks, Linc recited a verse- </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">"I am thanking God from a full heart. I am whistling, laughing and jumping for joy. Psalm chapter 9, verses 1 and 2."</span> </div>

Later, when the classes were singing "This Land is my Land, This Land is your Land", Lincoln and his classmate Emory soloed a verse- <i>"As I was walking that ribbon of highway, I saw above me that endless skyway, I saw below me that golden valley- this land was made for you and me." </i>They remembered every word and sang their hearts out!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Of course, the year flew by so quick, as they do... We feel very blessed to have been a part of this special preschool. Ms Annette and Ms Shannon, and the rest of the staff at Small Blessings are truly gifted in leading and loving these kids. I know our kids got a solid foundation of knowledge and loving learning thanks to their time here!</div>

So we agreed on a Non-Slumber party! We invited the girls from school- Anna Christine, Katie, Abigail and Addison. They came home from school with us, and partied thru dinner- then went home! All the fun- no sleeping over! ;)<br />
Everything was all decorated and ready for the girls when we got home from school.<br />

Our first craft project was to decorate nightshirts, which would then be their take-home gifts. The girls were so creative with the paints and fabric markers, and especially loved the little jewels to glue on.<br />

Most fun for me was to just let the girls play together, watching them come up with games and ideas. They have grown so close this year, it was like watching a group of sisters- they bickered, argued, teased, comforted, laughed and really enjoyed their time!<br />

For dinner they got to roll out their own mini-pizzas, and help me add the toppings. They were really good! (Thank you Publix ready-to-go pizza dough!) We ended the party with singing Happy Birthday and some special birthday rice krispy treats!<br />

I think Georgia loved her extra birthday celebration with her friends, and it was really sweet for me to have all the girls over. I think the only thing Georgia would have liked better was if the girls could have spent the night..... ;) Maybe next year!!Kathrynhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08143957653084972578noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4011265461943088135.post-91809649978801537512014-04-03T17:21:00.000-04:002014-04-03T17:21:25.187-04:00Georgia's 7th Birthday CelebrationWe had a sweet time celebrating Georgia's 7th birthday with pizza and cake at Grammie and Grandad's house on Monday night.

With each birthday, I can't believe how big, how grown-up, how much older my baby has gotten... I really don't think God meant for our children's lives to fly by so quick!! But this has been a great year for Georgia, and we are so pleased with all she is doing, learning, and the girl she is becoming. We are told by all what a genuine sweetheart she is, and we are so proud of her kind, generous, loving heart. She is a true blessing to our family!</div>

<br />
In Lincoln's PreK class this year, he has a Birthday Buddy, Parker- both December 1st birthdays! So, Parker's mom and I thought it would be wise to do a joint Birthday party with their class. We did it at Parker's house, with a shark theme, and it was a very warm December day, after a very warm week, so it ended up being a pool party! I never thought my December boy would get a pool parry, but with Parker's pool heaters on, and the day as warm as it was, it worked out great! The kids were all decent swimmers, so they played and splashed for over an hour, then we did cupcakes and a piñata. Both boys had a blast and thought it was so special they had a buddy to celebrate their birthday with!!<br />

<br />
While we were with Larry's family in Birmingham before Thanksgiving, they got Lincoln a birthday cake to celebrate his 5th Birthday with him. So sweet! He loved having an early celebration with everyone up there! And, of course, everyone likes cake! ;)<br />

<br />
Lincoln's one request for his 5th birthday- to go to Legoland! We hadn't been yet, and we could fit it in nicely at the end of our Thanksgiving travels, AND Grammie and Grandad agreed to keep Rosemary with them for the day... so it worked out great! SO, on Lincoln's actual birthday, the four of us went to Legoland! We didn't tell them till the night before, when we gave Linc his Lego Batman shirt, so it was very exciting!<br />
Legoland was great! I would definitely recommend it to anyone with kids under the age of 10 or so- or any Lego enthusiast! There are lots of rides- we spent a full day there and rode almost every ride. And it is geared more towards younger kids, so it was great for our family. At Disney there are still many rides that Lincoln is too young or small for, but he could ride them all here, yet they were thrilling enough that we all enjoyed them! There was a great pirate-themed show that incorporated boats, waterski and wake boarding tricks, in a nod to the former Cypress Gardens shows that used to be at the same location. And there are, of course, a TON of very impressive Lego models!<br />
The service at the park was great too. We got Lincoln a "Birthday button" to wear soon after we arrived, and EVERY employee we saw stopped and said Happy Birthday to him. It was very impressive and commendable how they reached out to make him feel special! It was a great day!<br />

So we bought one for each kid after we arrived, and they spent the rest of the day finding ones they liked and trading. Georgia's final one was a cowgirl, and Lincoln's was a baseball player.</td></tr>

I love that as we keep teaching our kids the true meaning of Christmas each year, we can start to see them really GET IT! They still tear thru the presents like banshees on Christmas morning ;) but having the sweet truth of the Christmas story imprinted on their hearts is an awesome thing to witness. It is our hope it will be even more meaningful to them each year.<br />
Hope you all enjoyed great time with your loved ones, as well as the true joy of Christmas!<br />

The first weekend of November, Larry did his second Tough Mudder race, and extreme obstacle, 12 mile run. He finally convinced my brother Wes to run with him this year, and his friend Jason and Jason's friend Lee completed the team. The guys did a great job, running almost the entire time, completing every obstacle, and even saving a few lives along the way (no, really!! a girl froze up in the ice bath and could't get out, and someone whose whole body cramped up and they couldn't take another step or catch their breath). Very proud of these Tough Mudders and they can wear their orange headbands and feel awesome for another year!! This is a really tough race (no pun intended) and they did a great job!<br />

Larry joined his cousin Justin's team for the recent Savage Race (10/19/13) held out at Everglades Ranch, about an hour north of us. The race course was 7 miles, with 25 different obstacles along the way with names like Sawtooth, Colossus, Mud N Guts, Shriveled Richard, and many other with not-so-PG names. They powered thru the course with no problems, and had fun! (Yes- they were putting themselves thru that for FUN!!) Larry considered it a great warm-up for his upcoming Tough Mudder race... here's hoping that one will go as great!<br />

We went all-Batman for our Halloween costumes this year... the hot pink batgirl costumes finally sold it to Georgia! Lincoln was sold at first glance when he saw that the Batman emblem on his costume lit up! ;) They all looked great and had a great time being dressed up together!<br />

After pictures, they were ready to get out there and get some candy! Rosemary was totally into it this year, and so cute. She would go charging after the big kids yelling, "treat or treat"!! She wanted to carry her own bag and pick out her own candy from the bowls. She was usually about half a driveway- or more- behind, but they were usually good to wait for her before moving to the next house. She loved it- and is now going to be wanting a taste of all her hard-earned loot!<br />

We were WRONG! Ew, ew, ew!!! Carving pumpkins has always been a tradition I refused to break, but after cleaning up two liquified, smelly, fly-infested pumpkin corpses, I may change my mind on that tradition next year!! Painted pumpkins are sounding like a great idea! ;)<br />
But the carving itself is always fun. I had picked up a carving kit and the big kids each picked out a design. They were definitely more involved than our usual triangle eyes and toothy smile, but the carving kit and stencil made it pretty easy to accomplish. A big thanks to Grammie and Grandad for their help, and to Daddy for grilling us some wings while we carved! :)<br />

The Sunday before Halloween we had a little trick-or-treating preview at a Trunk or Treat with some of our friends. It was a great way to try out our costumes, warm up our trick or treating pleas, and get a few treats with sweet friends!<br />

Poor second child- there wasn't near as much fanfare as when Georgia started back to school. I didn't remember to fill out his paperwork till I was headed to bed the night before, and I almost forgot his first day sign... but all was good! He was so ready. When we got to school, he was down the hall and settled into his room before we could even get a hug and say "Have a great day"! Happens in a blink of en eye, doesn't it... He's going to have a great year! He has Ms. Annette and Ms. Shannon, who were Georgia's 4K teachers and truly some of the best around! Very exciting to us to have the privilege of being a part of their classroom again. I know Lincoln is going to learn so much and grow in so many ways this year!<br />

(I barely got my postings about the END of school done!!) Today, we are back to school! Well- Georgia is back to school. Thankfully Lincoln still has two weeks till he starts back, so we (Mommy!) get to ease back into the full school schedule! When I went in to wake Georgia up this morning, she said, "But, mommy- the birds aren't singing yet. I don't like to get up till the birds are singing!" Sorry, Cinderella-girl, but it's back to school and early mornings!! She's so like her momma....<br />

After we all shook out our early morning cobwebs, we were excited about the day and ready to go! Georgia will be in a new school this year- Westminster Academy, a classical Christian school that is starting its first year. Nine of the 10 students are from our church, and the school will be housed in our church, so it definitely has a 'family' feeling! The teachers are both so loving and great educators, and the curriculum an exciting challenge- so we are really looking forward to what this new adventure will bring!<br />

One of mom's kind friends loaned us her condo at Lido Key, over by Sarasota, FL. The beach was beautiful, the pool was refreshing, St. Armond's circle was very close for dinner... we had a wonderful time! Mom, the kids and I went over on Thursday morning, and Larry joined us after work Friday for the rest of the weekend. It was refreshing to me to also have mom's help with the kids! It's so nice to have extra hands on deck with these three monkeys!<br />
My kids are true beach babies, and love playing in the sand and surf. The waves and riptide were unreal the first two days- double-red flag on the first day!!- so we had to keep the kids out of the big waves those first days, but then they calmed down to our normal, gentle Gulf variety and the kids had a blast on the boogie boards. We usually spent the morning in the sand, lunch by the pool, then swimming in the pool all afternoon while little sister napped. A very fun little trip!!<br />
I, of course, have a bunch of pictures... By Sunday morning, Georgia said, "Mommy- we already took our picture together yesterday, right? So we can just go play??" So- no group picture Sunday! ;)<br />

At the end of the school year, Georgia's school presented awards. Georgia received two: obtaining Honor Roll all 4 quarters, and being an "Outstanding Citizen" all 4 quarters. We were so proud! Lincoln, Rosemary and I went to her classroom to see her receive them:</div>

We were also very proud when we received her final report card two days later, on her last day of school, and saw she had earned all "E's" for her final quarter (E: Excellent)! She worked hard this year, was a sweet, obediant girl who got almost all "green lights" for her classroom behavior, and was a friend to all in her class. She made huge strides in her reading and writing, but her favorite subject is still math. The numbers seem to come easily to her, at least at this level! She did very well this Kindergarten year, and we are very proud of her!<br />

He had an amazing year and really loved his teachers, Ms. Brittany, Ms. Amanda, and Ms. Phyllis. John Max was his best friend, though he played really well with all the kids in his sweet little class. He learned to write his alphabet, got really good at writing his name, memorized his address- and most of his classmates addresses! We've realized he has a very good memory (much better than mommy's!!), so when his classmates would recite their addresses to Ms Brittany, he was also memorizing them! So funny to hear him rattle them off at home... :) He had so many special experiences, great learning moments and fun adventures this past year!!<br />
