this past week...playing catch up

I guess I have been slacking, and just waiting until I have a few things to post. This past week we were pretty busy.

Last Friday Bryce had his kindergarten graduation type thing. They just got certificates from Mrs. Billot. She also handed out candy bar awards. Bryce received the "Mr. Goodbar" award. This was for the student who is always a great friend to his classmates.











The boys went camping on Friday for
the weekend with their grandparents and cousins (mom's side.) We picked them up on Sunday and had a nice visit with lots of family friends and had great food. Adam had a fast pitch tourney all weekend in Bay City, and I worked.

Monday all 3 boys enjoyed their day golfing with "G" and Papa in Vassar, then we went to their house for hot dogs, burgers and salads. We finally saw Aunt Robin. She's not looking too pregnant YET but says she is wearing her pants that had been too big for her lately. Will be into maternity clothes soon by the sounds of it. She is VERY sick every day. Has a hard time with smells, brushing her teeth and eating textured foods. Poor girl!!

Wednesday the boys got picked up by "G" for school, she dropped Bryce off and went on Drew's big 5th grade field trip to the Detroit Science Center. I've heard it was a long 2 hr trip there and back, and 4 boys to watch was a bit much, but they were good over all. Lots of them took their DS's so they played and linked with them on the bus rides. Maybe we will need to take the boys there this summer for something fun to do.

Bryce walked to the library and had a pizza party at school. Then mom got her hair cut and we had soccer sign up for the fall. He is bumping up to U8. He will be with 1st and 2nd graders, and maybe a few 3rd graders that weren't ready to move up. There will also be goalies and playing at bigger fields. Then we had another t-ball game. Bryce was very excited about Wednesday, b/c we had so many fun things to do.

Thursday and today are half days at school, with today being their last day. It's hard to believe the school year is DONE!! It's exciting but sad. Drew adjusted VERY well to middle school. There were many big changes and big steps for him. In 6th grade, they have the same teachers they had this year, so it should be an easier transition. Bryce also had big steps going to Kindergarten. He was there full time, all day, every week day. There was more learning time and less play time. He learned how to read, write lots of words, make sentences, how to add (sum) and much much more then that. He has amazed me.

Thursday afternoon, Bryce fell asleep in the lazy boy. He is such a goofie kid. I of course had to snap some pictures of the crazy way he slept. Drew had a game on Thursday night. We are in a slump and lost game 5 in a row. Drew had a great pop up. It went to the short stop, who he assumed was going to catch it, so he slowed down. Well the kids dropped it, but picked it up so fast and threw it to 1st, that Drew was out. Had he ran thru the base and not slowed down, he would have been safe. O well. Ya live and learn.











I guess that's all for now. Hope everyone had a great week. Glad school is over, and summer break begins. No more home work, no more early bed times!! YEAH!!!
