Winding Down

The school year is coming to an end, and the last week has been JAM-PACKED. We've had field trips, class parties, field days, science fair, and wax museum. And I've been subbing full time, but the perk of subbing at the boys' school is being able to attend all of their activities. Enjoy some of these highlights. 

Ethan did an amazing science fair project comparing the magnetism of different metals. 

Jackson won first place for the hockey puck race at the 1st grade Field Day. 

And he threw like a beast for the bean bag toss. Look at that form!

Jack and his best pals. 

Ethan got 4th place in the basketball dribble race for 4th grade Field Day. 

He even had time to snap a picture with his proud mom!

Ethan gave a memorized presentation as William Clark from the Lewis and Clark Expedition. 

Ethan was named the Sensational Scientist for his class.

Jackson has his class party tomorrow, and then Summer Break officially begins at 11:15 on the 21st! Woo hoo!

Jackson is Seven!!

Our little baby is SEVEN! Seven??? 

Jackson remains one of the coolest, sweetest, smartest, and most stubborn ball of energy. He is 110% BOY! He loves soccer, football, racing, wrestling, basketball...the boy always has a ball in his hand. He is freakishly well-behaved in school, but manages to push every one of his parents' buttons at home. 

He invited a couple friends, and we spent the day at Dollywood! We had the best day. Love you Jackers!

The birthday boy made time for his momma (and McDonald's) during a birthday lunch date at school. 

Seven fantastic years!

Being goofy at Dollywood.
