Preschool Graduation!


Well, Julia made it through three year old preschool- how many more years of school do we have left? We are extremely proud of how Julia has performed in school this year. According to "report card" Julia made all A's!! Guess she takes after her father! Julia loved school this year and woke up with great anticipation each school day anxiously awaiting to go. She made many friends and I have HEARD talk of a BOYFRIEND- what is this?!? Anyway, it really was a great way to begin her school career.

The next Mary Lou Retton!


This was Julia's finale for this semester at Champion Gymnastics. Julia has moved up a level on a recommendation by her teacher. We have learned that Julia ia very goal oriented - like her mother and not so much task oriented - like her father. However, we are very proud of her. She did a great job performing in front of so many strangers.

Mother's Day



Today was a fun day for me. Jason gave me a beautiful bouquet of tulips. He also made me breakfast. Julia gave me a wonderful card and a lovely placemat made with her handprint. Harrison gave me lots of hugs and kisses. We went out for lunch and were on the lookout for a Nintendo Wii. Jason and I have never been huge video buffs, but the Wii has intrigued me. That was my big gift. Most of all, I feel blessed to have two beautiful children that are healthy and that love me. I am blessed!

Klompen Time





Tulip Time has arrived! Julia and Harrison enjoyed dressing up in their Dutch costumes. They have also discovered the "gut wagons" stationed all over downtown. They have developed quite a liking to cotton candy! The tulips truly are beautiful this year and we are so blessed to be able to join in on some of the festivities.
