Can't think of a good title!

So here is the Picture of Tucker on his first day of kindergarten! He is doing great and with a little encouragement making lots of new friends. He has a little tendency to only play with one person ALL the time! I just want him the be able to play with lots of kids.

Isn't he adorable and handsome! Even with his goofy smile.He wasn't sure that he was ready to go back to school!

We have been attending several local football games. We mostly go to Dickson since that is where most of the youth from church go. They are all either on the football team, cheering or in the band. But last night Lone Grove played Plainview so we had to go. I must admit it was very strange walking in on the visitors side of the plainview football field wearing a Lone Grove jacket and carrying my little Lone Grove cheerleader. We are longhorns now but deep down inside I will always be an indian. Speaking of that, three of the first grade teacher graduated from Plainview (Me, Kari and Jen) and three graduated from Lone Grove. This being Plainviews centenial they made this cute shirts that have an indian on the front and the back says... everything I need to know I learned at Plainview. They are so cute too. So the three indians couldn't resist a cute t shirt and a little practical joke. We wore our Plainview shirts to school yesterday (yes, we did but we changed into our LG shirts later). It was so funny to see the kids faces and our principals. She even made us all certificates that name us a "work in progress". It was a lot of fun and we sure needed that after being stuck inside for a whole week with no recess. AGGHHH. These are some pics from both games!

Happy 1/2 birthday!

So it has really been forever since I have blogged but with a 5 year old and a 6 month old(today) time to play on the computer rarely comes around!

My precious baby girl turned 6 months today. Time has really flown, I knew it would but it still shocks me. Leah's little personality is starting to shine more and more each day. She loves her mommy, daddy and brother. Her favorite thing to say is dadada I tell her mamama all the time and she just smiles her big toothless grin and laughs. I love her more and more each day if that is possible. She hasn't quite mastered the crawling but she rocks back and forth a lot and starts to move one leg forward. I know before long she will be on the go. Leah is a great shopper! YES!!! I imagine us shopping together for many many years to come. Leah is such an amazing beautiful blessing and I am so honored to be able to share my life with her. Here are some of her pictures we had taken today.

Tucker started Kindergarten three weeks ago. I can believe it. He is most definetly the cutest boy in Lone Grove Elementary. He gets out of class 15 minutes before we do and he walks to my room each afternoon all by himself. It is the perfect way to end a LONG day with 20 first graders! He always greets my with a hug, which I love! He is getting so much smarter. The other night I was working with him on some sight words and Leah kept trying to grab his paper, in the sweetest most sincere voice he said, "Leah please stop grabbing my paper, Mommy is trying to teach me to read." I almost started crying right then. I am so proud of the sweet, loving, caring boy he is and am also blessed he have him as my son. I will post his first day of school pic soon!

So yes back to school for me. I had been off for about 5 months and was not looking forward to leaving Leah at the babysitters. Even though I know she is loved and taken care of there. I love watching her grow and learn all her new tricks. However, the pay check was calling and the school bell was ringing. I do have a very good class this year. I think we are going to have a lot of fun and I am going to be able to teach them lots of new exciting things! (including how to read) That is a strenous task but at the end of the year is so rewarding to have them all asking if they can read me a story. I have some really funny and sweet personalities this year.
