Mama Liz comes to visit!!!

Liz came in, and I tell you, it was as if I had seen her yesterday. We picked up right where we left off, chatting, and just hanging out. We spent the better part of the morning visiting and catching up. 
Then we headed out for lunch... we went to the Strip for Serendipity. It was yummy.... we were SO hungry when we got there that we got 2 donuts, and a hamburger so we coud hold out the 45 minute wait! The kids devoured the donuts.... and they were..... HUGE. 
THE BIGGEST DONUT WE HAVE EVER SEEN. 
We headed in for our meal, and got the hotdog, mac & cheese, and a hamburger. 
oh, and 2 frrrozen hot chocolates. 



We had such a great time. It didn't last nearly long enough!!!!! I wish we got to spend more time with Liz & Jacob. I'll miss them! It's great to know though, no matter how much time passes... nothing changes, we just pick right up where we left off.

Graduation 2012-2013

Colette had a great 3rd grade year! We have been so proud of her achievements! We had a little hick-up mid-year and Colette's grades fell a little bit. So we had to work extra hard to bring the grades up, focus on our studies! She was so impressive! The next semester, she had all A's and B's! She ended up graduating on the A-B honor roll! She also had A+ attendance! We've been so happy with her work!
