berries

The boys and I have been trying to make it to the NLR Market every Saturday morning. We all have a hard time controlling ourselves, but I think we might as well go berry crazy while they are available. Every year when berry season passes I am sad that we didn't indulge more.

I think the beauty of these berries and the incomparable yumminess of a local tomato makes the heat a little more bearable.

daddy

My boys are super lucky to have a great daddy.
Happy Father's Day Pete!

field day and follies

With all of the end of the year festivities I had forgotten to post these few pictures from field day and follies. Campbell and I headed to Wilson's school to partake in the fun.

Wilson's grade did a line dance, he was pumped about the boots and cowboy hat. He did a great job and we all had a super fun day.

fun with cousins

We are lucky enough to have the Davidson's in town for a few days which means cousin time. It is pretty much a nonstop party around here.

These pics are from the last time we were all together, Thanksgiving. As you can see they are a cute group and know how to have some fun. Also funny to look at these pics because I am pretty sure a few of the cousins have grown a good 6 inches in the past 6 months.

cookies and last days

Thursday was Campbell's last day of school and as a little thank you to his wonderful teachers we made his favorite cookies for them. I found a M and M cookie recipe on their website and C and I made them together...I love cooking with my boys.

Campbell really wanted to do it all and I was amazed by how long he lasted in the kitchen.

When they were finished we wrapped them up for his teachers and directors and a neighbor.

We took them on his last day. I took my camera thinking I would get this great pic of his whole class on the last day at this wonderful school, but it didn't go down like that. I could not get the kids attention and some had left and my child was completely uncooperative. Oh well....this really is silly Campbell.

And I did manage a picture of the boys.

take me out to the ballgame

On Thursday night we had the pleasure of being invited to the Travelers game by the James. I was afraid to take my camera because it had been raining on and off, but I threw Wilson's camera in my bag so we could get a few pictures of Flat Stanley.

I did manage to get a few pics of the boys, and of course Flat Stanley, but none of the James family. Amy even got one picture of the 4 (5 if you count FS) of us.

We had a really great time!

I used Wilson's camera to take these pics and I was able to crop out the date that comes up on the bottom of all pics I take with his camera, but I am curious if anyone knows how to turn off this feature....it ANNOYS me! He has a Nikon point and shoot camera with a touch screen and the menu is very basic, think it is a 230. I cannot find anywhere to turn this off, but I know it can be off because it use to be. Any advice?

our graduate

Lots of pictures below because my baby is a preschool graduate and it seems like Wilson did this yesterday.

The 2 graduating classes got to sing a few songs at the beginning of the program. Campbell was singing so loud that I could pick out his voice.

When they handed out the diplomas my eyes got all watery, I could just see him walking across the big stage, graduating High School. Then he made me laugh by using the diploma like a horn as he walked off stage.

Campbell got to dance with 2 of his girlfriends and it could not have been cuter.

C really has made great friends over the past 3 years.

And we have had awesome teachers.

Happy Graduation big man!
