Lydia's last days of preschool

Lydia's last day of preschool at Peace was May 20th. She loved every minute of preschool & Ms. Marsha was the best preschool teacher we could have asked for!! She made coming to school & learning so fun & exciting! We were really glad she was part of Lydia's school experience! next year Lydia will go back to Peace preschool for Pre-K & she'll have Ms Terry. At first, Lydia was not so sure about that...she wanted to have Ms Marsha again, but I told her she would still see Ms Marsha & could say hi to her.

I thought Lydia may be a little sad to leave her friends...it was a little bittersweet for me, but Lydia didn't seem to mind. I think she was glad to be home for a while.

Touch a truck

The Edmond MOM's club has held a "touch a truck" event for the last 2 years. Last year was the first & we really enjoyed it. This was the second year & man, had it grown! There were twice as many trucks to crawl in, honk the horn, sit on & in. It was awesome! My girls really enjoyed every truck!

Lydia's first movie experience!

On Saturday April 25, 2009, Scott & I took Lydia to her first moive, Earth, at the Harkin's Theater in Bricktown.

Lydia was very excited & so was I! She LOVED it! The movie was AMAZING! In was a hour & a half long, & she got a little "antsy" after about an hour, but over all she did great!

"God made the world & everything in it" Psalm 89:11

Thoughtful Thursday!

OK OK....I haven't been blogging in a while because I haven't downloaded pictures lately. I like to add a picture to go along with the post. Life has been exciting!! All those "exciting" pictures are on my camera!! I like to wait until I have at least 100 pictures to download...I think after this Mother's day weekend in Woodward there will be enough pictures to down load...

Here are the "hightlights" of the last few weeks:

1. In late April, we took Lydia to see her first movie, Earth, in the theather! We went to the Bricktown theather & she loved it!

2. We MISSED the Heartwalk in Stillwater because of the flooding, pouring rain on May 2nd!! I was upset & so was Lydia! She was ready to "go walk for baby Addy!" She had her Addy shirt on ready to go!

3. At Peace Preschool, Lydia had a "letter parade". They picked their favorite letter & of course we chose "L". We decorated it with a ladybug, lollipop, lion, lamb, Lydia, lightning, & love. We added scripture to every item. It was really sweet!

I will add pictures as soon as I download them....don't give up on me!:)

The Friday Five...April 24th

1. I'm thinking of an old friend for elementary school today, Robyn, she is having her second baby girl this morning.

2. I had a wreck on Tuesday of this week. I was taking Lydia to school & I hit a car....long story, I'm not sure whose fault it was but I think it was a little of both. The officer thought it was mine, so I got the ticket. The girls were fine, so was the other driver. I looked back at the girls after it happened & they didn't say anything, but Lydia's glasses were knocked off her face. They didn't cry until the tow truck came & Lydia said "I liked that car!" Caraline has talked ALL week about mommy car got a "big bump"!

3. Thursday was the Mother's Day program at Lydia's school. Tori came to watch Caraline so I could go be with Lydia. It was so cute & so sweet! She loves school. She was so excited to show me the things she had made for me.

4. I called Sooner Start about Caraline's speech development on Tuesday....now she is talking more...go figure!

5. I've watched the Twilight movie 4 times now & started reading New Moon...I'm addicted to it!

Wordless Wednesday April 22, 2009

Aprons are so "in"!

The Friday Five 4/17/09

1. Caraline was sick all Easter weekend & then so was my mom!

2. I find it interesting the amount of people I know who are homeschooling....I'm thinking I will try it with Lydia next year.

3. I don't download pictures on my computer unless I have over 100 pictures on my camera to download.

4. I watched Oprah on Wednesday about online child preditors & now I'm so scared I'm almost ill over it!! The sick people out there is really distrubing! It makes me SO sad for those innocent children who are sexually molested & can't imagine what would posses a person to do such an unthinkable act!! I was in tears for those children & felt sick to my stomach! I just prayed for protection of those children!

5. I was so scared last Thursday with the wild fires in Midwest City & Choctaw that I packed up my scrapbooks in the car in case we had a fire near us & had to leave!! Crazy, I know!

I'm more worried about my family in a fire or tornado, but if I can't have my girls sit in the car or hang out in the storm shelter "just in case"....so if I can have some things "ready" then I can grab my family when I need to & have still have my pictures!

have a great weekend!
