Preschool Graduation and Summer Begins!

 Singing "This Little Light of Mine"

 Best Buds

It's official, Snapdragon is now a 4K student at Holy Rosary!  She had her moving up ceremony and program on Wednesday.  Buttercup is officially an 8th Grader!  We are very proud of her!  She made Honor Roll all four grading periods! She will graduate from elemenatry school next spring and make her Confirmation. Exciting times ahead! I took her out to celebrate the end of 7th grade last night.  We went to see Pirates of the Carribean and ate at TGIF.

 We also have a fun summer ahead beginning with Holy Rosary's Italian Festival, the dance recital, our trip to Florida, and our visit to Cincinnati!

It's A Wonderful World!

Snapdragon put on a special performance for us this morning complete with her own stage directions. If you are viewing this on the blog, you need to scroll down to the bottom and pause the music player. You'll notice the further she gets into the song, the more "diva-like" she becomes! Enjoy!

Happy Mother's Day!

We hung the painting I bought at Holy Rosary's Fashion Show and Auction last weekend.
Fun, fun, fun!

It's been a busy day, but I guess it was by choice. I was able to relax a little this morning with my yummy breakfast of biscuits and gravy in bed. I watched a movie on Oxygen and then it was up to wash the van, weed the gardens, groom the dogs and pack lunches for school tomorrow...among other various Sunday chores. Lou mowed the lawna and is now lighting the grill for our yummy dinner!

Lou surprised me with a beautiful statue of Mary for my garden. I have wanted one since we made the garden last year. I bought a cheap ten dollar one at Big Lots, but it was already looking worse for the wear. Snapdragon painted an adorable flower pot for me at school and Buttercup gave me a pretty flower clip for my hair and some new nailpolish.

Snapdragon enjoyed playing in her water table. It was 86 degrees today and it didn't rain! Poor Buttercup has spent most of the day completing homework. Hopefully, this is the last project she'll have this school year! I think we are all finished and need a break!

Anyway, love my girls and my hubby! The joys of motherhood far out-weigh the stresses...even though today was full of some of the stresses.
