Brave Brave Colin

He decided to have a camp out last night with the kids.
They made a campfire and roasted marshmallows and all in all made a mess and had a fun time.

New look

I figured out how to change my blog to look much nicer... boy it took a while and a lot of trial and error... I'm so glad I saved the original HTML file before I started to mess around.

Now that I know how to do it I may just change it up more often.

Enjoying the last days of school

We got a chance to say good bye to all the other kids, their parents and the teachers today with a picnic. We played games, made a craft and ate lots of yummy snacks.

JJ was awesome. He and his 2 best friends (the 3 musketeers) were sharing and giggling and being them.

JJ gave his end of year present to his teacher and I think she is going to really miss this class. They are one great bunch of kids.

Here are a couple of pics from today. Does anyone think I need to get poor JJ a different hat so he has some idea of what is going on around him??



After the storm...

Well I guess the storm wasn't all bad. JJ got to play in the hail, the flowers survived and we got to look at this afterwards.

Only my child

Yesterday we had a huge storm. It started out as just rain and I had to run out under JJ's little umbrella to try and get the patio cushions out of the downpour before they got too wet. JJ thought it looked like fun (it was so not fun, it was COLD!) So as soon as I yell "the rain just turned to hail" he grabs his spider man umbrella and out the door he goes. Yep that my son running around in the hail screaming like a loonatic.

The only reason he came back in is because a hail stone nailed him on the knee and I guess it hurt pretty bad. He is still complaining about it today to anyone that will listen to him.

He graduated!!

My little guy is no longer in kindergarden. He starts grade 1 in the fall. He is already a huge class clown but at least he knows when to be serious. (NEVER in front of a camera, that is so the time to goof I guess)



Update# 5

Summer is finally here. Although with the weather the last week its hard to tell sometimes. JJ is spending almost all of his time outside. Yeah for me. I MUCH prefer this to him and the dogs running around inside at high speeds.


Update #4

Oops forgot to tell you that at the zoo we got to pet the stingrays.
JJ was a little freaked out.

Update #3

For Father's Day we took Colin to the zoo. It was a really nice day and not busy at all. I got some great photos.




Update #2

We have ducks, bizarre strange ducks that go door to door quaking for food.
But they are nice enough to pose for photos if you give them a bread crust or 2.

Update #1

Boy it's been a while....

I've had a blast playing with my new camera... its too much fun!!

This is one of my fav pics of JJ I have now.
