Best Friends!

"There is one friend in the life of each of us who seems not a separate person, however dear and beloved, but an expansion, an interpretation, of one's self, the very meaning of one's soul." ~Edith Wharton

Summer Vacation

Cub Scout Camp

Jeremy is at Cub Scout Camp this week! Today is a hot one! Should get to 102! But here are some pictures of him learning about the stars! Jeff is at camp with him today and tomorrow.

Happy Father's Day Jeff!

Happy Father's Day to the best dad Jeremy could ask for! This year Dad let Jeremy fill the gas tank! I loved watching him teach Jeremy how to do this!

Happy 8th Birthday!

On Saturday this little boy turned EIGHT! Not so little anymore! He had a birthday party with 4 friends and we all went to see The Avengers and then ate dinner at McDonalds! The boys all stayed overnight for a sleep over and lots of fun and little sleep was had by all!! Jeremy is still my strong willed, stubborn child. But he is perfect the way he is! I love him more every day and his silly personality makes me laugh all the time. He is a worrier too but it all makes him who he is. He loves his mom and dad with every ounce of himself. He is becoming more independent every day. He loves to read, play with his legos and skylanders and angry birds. He likes to play his DS and Wii and loves to play with his friends. He says some of the funniest things and never misses a trick! He has an incredible imagination and is a talented artist and musician! I look forward to the years ahead to see where his artistic, imaginative, strong willed personality takes him! I'm along for the ride and love and support this young man more than I ever thought possible! Happy 8th Birthday Jeremy! I love you to the moon!!!!!!

Last Day of School 2011/2012!

WOW!!!!  Time sure does fly when your having fun!  Second grade is over!  This handsome young man will be a third grader when I get home today!  And tomorrow my favorite little boy will turn EIGHT!  Here's to a great start to what is looking to be a fantastic summer!  We will start summer off with a bang, Jeremy's birthday party is tomorrow.  Then we plan to swim, read, play outside, camp, hang out with friends, ride our bikes, hike, go to Great America, have at least one moon light picnic (with candles), take a trip to Minnesota and relax, if we have time!  Happy summer to all!

I Miss Washington

Another Tooth is Gone!

On Friday, May 4, Jeremy lost his 4th tooth, his second one in top. Now we are enjoying his toothless smile and his cute new voice that has plenty of lisping involved with his "S"s!

Homemade Vegan Sushi Night!

We made our own vegan sushi tonight with quinoa instead of rice. It was soooo good! Jeremy couldn't eat enough!

100 Year Anniversary of Titanic Recital

Today Jeremy played 'My Heart Will Go On' from Titanic on the 100th Anniversary of the day Titanic sank. It was his very first recital after only 6 lessons and he was the student with the least experience at the recital He was very nervous but ended up doing great! I'm so proud of my little man!

Hair cut for summer!

I miss his long hair! But he wanted it short...Jeremy actually wanted it shorter than this but we compromised! Here is the before and after pictures.

Art Lesson!

Jeremy gave me an art lesson using oil pastels tonight. Jeremy's is better than mine I think but it was fun to have him teach me! His has the dark sky mine has the daytime sky as he instructed me to create with clouds and a sun!

Happy Easter!
