Ready for Summer!

This is such a busy time of year. There are so many events going on with the end of school- and I only have Amber in school. Luckily, Tyler will start kidnergarten when Amber is a senior!

With all the activities going on, I find myself looking forward to our summer vacations! First off is Hawaii for a week. Tyler will be staying at Meme and Papa's- hopefully he can cope with being away from Mommy for a week! He loves to be outside so I am sure he will have a blast while we are gone. Abbie (our dog) will also be keeping him company! After Hawaii, we will stay on in Ohio and spend some time with my family. Our 10th anniversary is also coming up and we are going to New Orleans for a short weekend. Robert says he is more excited about the New Orleans trip than the Hawaii trip- I really can't believe that! And right after that Dave Mattews is coming to Virginia and we got our tickets and can't wait!

I think I forgot to mention that Amber got her braces off. I didn't take specific picture of her with them off (ALTHOUGH I SHOULD HAVE!!!), she took this with her phone in the bathroom of the orthodontist office and sent it to me.

We are in the midst of Little Mermaid. I have been forgetting my camera but finally took it on Sunday when we watched the show. I cannot begin to tell you how proud I am of Amber- she is wonderful on stage. She also auditioned for the high school Show Choir and got a callback which I got her late too. Because she was late she had to learn all the choreography while watching everyone dance and just try and jump in. After the call back I felt awful- knowing it was my fault if she didn't make it. She was OK with it saying there was always next year. Saturday the list was up and she made it! I think she may be the only Freshman who made it! She is so talented and such a good hearted kid
