FUN DAYS IN MAY

End-of-the-Year, Ice-Cream Sundae Parties are great!

Mrs. K. even let Little Brothers attend!
Havey had a wonderful first year in First Grade at Starkville Academy. His teacher, Mrs. Karatassos was fantastic!

Field Day was so much fun at Starkville Academy!

Havey competed in the Soccer Dribble and the Tricycle Relay!

The First and Second Grades went skating for some end-of-the-year fun! Havey had a blast!
I am so blessed! It is absolutely incredible being a mommy! I have the sweetest boys (almost all of the time)!

The boys surprised me with all kinds of goodies: flowers, candy, balloons, coffee mug and a Willow Tree. I have been really wanting one to plant in our backyard. It was so cute to see the boys working so hard to help Ben get it in the ground! Stephen Louis' end-of the-year party was a Luau. It was darling and they all had a great time playing games, especially Limbo!

The kids give Mrs. Ryan a silver elephant tray. Their group is known as the elephants. Mrs. Ryan has been such a sweet teacher. He has had a great year at the Methodist Day School. I cannot believe he will start Kindergarten in the fall!

SUSHI ANYONE?

Well, I mean, Sweet Sushi!

We made Sweet Sushi at our house the other day as a dessert treat! It was fun to make and yummy too! I went to read to Havey's First Grade class today and instead of taking a ready-made snack, I took the (pre-cut) ingredients to make this neat treat (pound cake, frosting, coconut, gummy tape, gummy fish, and twizzlers). It was easy for the kids to make and I think they all enjoyed themselves. You can find the recipe on the Family Fun web-site, which is a great resource for parents and teachers. They have all kinds of awsome ideas, crafts, and snacks! I love this magazine and website! You really must try these, they are so cute!

What is this? Read below to find out who or what is in this mystery photo!

Benjamin Harris has been begging me to add this photo to our Blog, so I finally am getting around to doing so. Can anyone guess who this is? Well, it is the Tooth Fairy, of course, or at least part of her. Apparently, our digital camera was a little heavy for her. So when she tried to take a photo of herself, which is difficult for all of us, she only got part of her body in the picture. Back in February when Havey lost his top tooth he secretly wrote the Tooth Fairy a note and stuck it under his pillow along with his tooth. He asked her if she would take a picture of herself. He also got my camera and left it out for her to see! He planned it all out for her and she so kindly took the time to honor his request! The Tooth Fairy is so "sweet"!
