These cute boys graduated preschool on Friday, complete with caps and gowns. They did a short little program for the parents. They have been excited for weeks and decided not to share with me any of their songs before the big day. Looks like they each passed! Jackson told me his is very excited for preschool, but sad because he won’t get to see Aunt Jena as much.
The same day was field day. It was a great family day. The school kids ran hurdles and various relay races while the little kids played. Seems ironic to me that as a reward for all their hard work all year, they get to run….But they loved it!
These two ran against each other many times on Friday. Sometimes I still shake my head in amazement that they are in the same class in the same school and live 2 minutes from each other.
The big kids were so nice, they ran against Leo and Patrick!
Lucy was loved on a lot. Mrs. G is our neighbor and spoils all our kiddos.
And our big Dominic turned seven on Saturday. We had his special birthday dinner on Thursday night. His big present from us was tickets to the Husker baseball game this weekend. He also got a new basketball and a crew socks. And, no, he doesn’t care what you think about him wearing his long socks over his pants. That’s how Dominic rocks it.
He chose fried chicken, cheesy potatoes, jello and veggies for his dinner.
And we had such a blast at the ball game. It was a beautiful day! Jake and Gina, Lizzy and Chris and Paul and Katie and their kiddos joined us for the game. We did a picnic before.
We sat in the grass and did some watching and lot of playing and rolling around. The boys loved it—especially Dominic who actually watched most of the game. The kid LOVES sports.
The best part was the Uncle Chris caught a fowl ball and gave it to D. After the game, we got a few autographs (from random ball players). And the Huskers pulled out a win in the 10th inning on a walk-off home run.
After the game, we played at the park and then went to Valentino’s where Dominic was serenaded and the adults scarfed down food in between taking six kiddos through the buffet line.
It was a GREAT birthday weekend!
