another year in the books

i know have a 2nd and 3rd grader in the house!  how?  how is it possible that my two little boys aren't so little anymore?  where in the world is the time going?  this school year has been by far the best.  we have been shown over and over that moving to buford was the best decision we ever could have made for our family.  it may have been rough in the beginning while we were still building the house and driving back and forth and back and forth but it all seems like a distant memory now.  the boys did such a good job this year and both were excellent students.  what's even better is next year they will be at the same school (buford splits their kindergarten and 1st grade in one building and then 2nd-5th in another).  after years and years of being in different schools they will finally be together.  of course, they are now approaching the age where they don't want to wave to their brother in the hall but it sure makes my life easier.  and lets face it, that's all the matters!

first day

last day.  stop growing up so much!

carson's award ceremony.  he was on the all As and Bs honor roll and got the PE award!  look at that sweet face and how proud he is!

and brooks had his "promotion" walk from 1st grade.  he did such a great job this year and has become such a good student.  plus, look how cute he is!

as if i could forget her, this is how shelby spends most of her time while at the schools with me.  how am i ever going to remover her from my body so that she can go to school for herself?  that's another battle for another day.
