Ok, I'm going to brag here a little. Not much has been happening lately here, but then I got some really exciting news that will make parents just gloat until forever! We found out that Olivia's drawing in art class is going to be printed on the front cover of a school textbook!! YIPEE Let me explain.....at the beginning of school 2 teachers decided they wanted to put a book together about the history of Springfield Township for a 3rd grade textbook (that is a taught course in 3rd grade). So each art class was doing a separate drawing for inside the book and the best one would get printed in it. I have held my breathe all year long and sorta had my doubts only b/c there was a little boy also in her class who had a pretty good gazebo drawing (they drew the new gazebo down by the lake). I finally got the final paper on it saying that her drawing is going to be the front cover!!! Now think about this.....First grade and her drawing will be permanently on a school textbook........forever!!! I am truly over the moon happy for her. The drawings are getting sent down to Canton,OH. to be professionally framed and displayed in the town hall in the fall, bet I will get my hands on that and it will proudly be displayed over our mantle!!! Olivia is going to go far in her drawing and i'm so excited she has had this opportunity to put herself out there and really show herself what she can do!!!! Below is the paper, but of course it wouldn't take a good picture, but it does say Olivia Nagle (cover of book)...........She crossed out her age of 6 and put 7, but 6 is when the drawing was finished.
Logan has learned to reach on tip toes and he uses them frequently to his advantage.
We got to finally go home over Memorial Day and it was beautiful. How couldn't you ask for a better holiday weekend than being able to wear shorts and t-shirts and no coats!!
Anybody else surprised he stood still long enough for me to take the pic without it being blurred?? Look at those fat little legs!
I have no idea what this bush is, but it got really loaded this year with pink flowers and was gorgeous this week until a heavy rain beat it up.
One last note......I'm still couponing(ha ha Jimmy who thinks i'm insane) and getting lots of stuff for so much less and my mom and Nicole may have caught the bug too after getting gallons of ice tea for .50 each!
GO CAVS! The Cleveland Cavaliers are still hanging in there in the playoffs and well deserve to be there and beat Orlando!! Believe me I don't watch much b-ball but to watch LeBron James play is like magic.........I love this, (dare I say) kid, he's so young and SO EXTREMELY TALENTED!!! I remember when Rich wanted to go watch him in high school and I was like "whatever" you ain't got no Micheal Jordan here, he grew up in the hood! Well, guess what........I should have went in High School...................
