Thane is so sweet!

My son Thane is the sweetest thing! =] He is always making things with Legos. He LOVES them! Well, we had an evening at home tonight and he informed me that he had a surprise for me. He made this little lego wall hanging for my office. It is a lipstick at the bottom that has written the letters MK. hahaha. He is always making Mary Kay stuff for me. It is so sweet and so creative. =] Just wanted to share with you!

Park Pics...

Look at this beautiful pic of Madeline!! I love it! We never get many posed pics of her and we decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather and scenery. =]

We decided to go to the park after school today since there was a half day for parent teacher conferences. All the kids got great reports from their teachers and enjoyed hanging out at the park!
Look how cute my boys are! They are growing up and getting so tall.

Thane.

Seth.
Look at sassy Miss Mia. She had to pose some too after seeing Madee getting some pics taken. =]
And of course while we had a nice afternoon outside, we went to pick up Caiti, who had been in school. Poor thing...she didn't get to hang outside with us.... =[ lol

Seth's Last Football Game...

This is Seth's football team. He had so much fun playing football this year. It has been great to see him go from not knowing at all what to do, to knowing plays! =]

We got a certificate and a trophy for his participation. He had to turn in his uniform before getting the trophy, but we have it. =] The team finished with a pretty good record of winning 4 of 6 games.

Look how cute he is! =] Check out that mouth piece...lol.

Homecoming....

This was Caitlin's first Homecoming. I can't even believe that she is in Highschool!! I have no idea when I will come to terms with this fact. I guess it will sink in eventually, but 2 months into the high school experience I'm still not there yet.... Both her and Preston had to perform in the band halftime show and then change for the dance.
We lost miserably to Pike. It was a loss of 39-14. It was tough to watch....
I got to sign the big bad alumni board...what a hoot!
A tradition at North is that the girls are driven in by the Corvette Club. Each girl is in hr own Corvette.

OFFICIAL BAND PHOTO...


We got Caitlin's OFFICIAL band photos back this week. I like the new uniforms. They are really cool. Caiti curled her hair that morning for the Homecoming dance. =] I will have pics from that another time....

Mia's first trip to the Dentist...

Mia got to go to the dentist today for her first cleaning. She looked so small climbing into the chair. =] She did a really great job sitting still and cooperating with the hygienist. She was so excited to get her new toothbrush at the end! I am so glad it was a good experience for her!

SOUND OF NORTH BAND INVITIATIONAL

Our Band put on a Band invitational/competition to raise money for our programs. It was a great day and we had an incredible turn out! There were 21 bands who came to compete! yay! Our Band did a performance preview at the end too. Gavin and I worked as a band guide. We worked with Bedford North Lawrence. They were a great band and they were very nice!

Caitlin is in the center. Don't they all look great? These are their new uniforms for this year. I liked them alot.

I love this pic...everything around her is blurred...She is the third from the left. There is one other girl who plays the tuba and she is to the left of Caiti in this pic.


Mr. Burton getting the band set to go!

Mia's first day of preschool...

It's time for Preschool again... Mia is sooooo excited. She absolutely loves preschool and has been counting down the days until it started! =]

This was the sign that said WELCOME CLASS and had all the kids names on apples near the door. Mia went right to her name and said, 'look mommy it says MEEEEE-AHHH!'

Sitting in circle time getting ready for class....
After school she posed near the school sign with her new backpack. She wants to wear it around all the time. She thinks she is such a big kid with it on! lol
We made an after school stop at Dairy Queen for lunch and she was so tuckered out from her morning that she fell asleep at the table! lol ;) Isn't that sweet?

Madee is playing Volleyball!!

Madeline is trying her hand at volleyball. She really likes it and appears to be pretty good at it. Our friend Buffy is a player and former coach and will be helping Madeline with her serve. It is the only area Madee feels a little lacking in. It was so much fun to watch the game tonight. We won the first 2 games so we did not have to play the third, since it is best 2 out of 3. =] Go team!
