Moving....moving...moving...us that is! We officially bought a house on July 1st! It is not far from our current house and is a perfect size for us! This month will be especially busy because we are trying to re-carpet the new house and paint before we move anything in. It is sad to know this is the last month in our current house-the only house Nolan and Brody have ever known. While it is sad when I think of all the memories, I look forward to making new ones in our new home! Onto Brody...

Mother's Day Celebration

Nolan had a mother's day tea celebration at Sacred Heart. It was very sweet and cute. The kids all sang some songs and then we ate fruit kabobs that they made! It was very nice and I loved spending time with Nolan.
All ready for his program!

Telling me to be quiet..ha!


Enjoying his fruit kabob that he made!
