Baseball End of the Year celebration

Tonight we had our end of the year celebration for baseball. Hayden has really enjoyed playing especially since Uncle Alan has been the coach. We all went to see the Gwinnett Braves play and had lots of fun.

Kindergarten graduation

Hayden graduated from Kindergarten today! It's hard to believe he's finished his first year of school already. Graduation was a big deal where all the students received their diploma in the gym, and also sang and performed for their families. Hayden was selected to stand up with 5 other students and say the Pledge of Allegiance in front of everyone. Enough to make his mom tear up...

After graduation they had a reception in their class room and they got to say good bye to their teachers, Mrs. McDuffie, Mrs. Lisa and Mrs. Jamie who all have been wonderful this year!

Hayden's field trip at Elachee Nature Center

Hayden's kindergarten class had a field trip to Elachee Nature Center this week. They learned about wild animals, hiked through the woods, and got to pet a snake. As always, the best part is when you get to sit down and eat your lunch...

Emmie's Spring consert

So Emmie had a concert at her preschool. Emmie's room were too young to really sing and participate, butthey all still managed to stand up front dressed up as butterflies while the older kids sang. Emmie did really well until she saw me and started yelling "Mommie, mommieeeeee..." but maybe it was only loud to me. She did end up standing in her place the whole time so that was good.

Easter at the beach

We went to Fripp over Easter and Spring break and it was a fun week. Since the Peck's house is now finished and huge, we all went over there every night and had dinner together. Another family from Atlanta joined us too with theire three kids, so some nights we had 12 kids running around. It was crazy but so much fun. The kids felt like they were at camp, but with the parents there. My camera died so I don't have any pictures to post yet. I'm waiting for some to be sent to me.

Swimming Reunion

I haven't written in ages, been to busy! This past weekend I went to Athens for a swimming reunion. It was great to see old friends, who all still looked absolutely fabulous. I realized when I was driving to Athens that I'm now twice the age of kids going to college!!!
I only went on Friday although the whole weekend was filled with activities. Staying out until 2am in a bar, almost did me in, so there is no way I could have made it another night. But it was so much fun. The next morning I got up early and went for a 10 mile run with Kelly. It's so much more fun running with somebody else, time seems to fly. It was also fun running through campus and see how much it has changed since we went to school there.
PS. if you are looking for me, I'm not in the group picture but I thought it was such a nice pic.

Celebration of Gary

Here are some pics from our celebration of Gary. We had about 50 people that came even though it was freezing cold and had rained the entire weekend. The beer warmed us up though and we all shared some good laughs and memories about Gary. The bench will also have a plaque naming it Gary's bench. Thanks for everybody that came, it was great to see you all. And also thanks for all the kind emails, cards, phonecalls etc. during the week.
