VPK Graduation

It is so hard to believe that the boys' first school year has already come to an end. It was a long school year in some aspects but it also flew by. The boys have grown & learned so much over the past 9 months. They loved school, their teachers & their friends but drop off was hard every single day until about 6 weeks ago or so. They started VPK knowing their shapes, colors, letters & numbers (up to 10) & finished knowing so SO much more. I'm usually entertained in the car by them coming with compound words or doing math equations. Caden loves to show us how high he can count, I think he's up to 160+. They know lots of sight words & are sounding out words beginning to read. They know their months, seasons, & how many days are in a year. They learned about the planets, fruits vs vegetables, all about their teeth & lots of other stuff. They are all social butterflies & think everyone they meet is their friend.

The boys' graduation was the very next day. They were so excited leading up to it! They each learned a line for graduation & a dance routine to the song What I Am. They also sang a song in Spanish.

Here they are walking in to receive their diplomas...

VPK Spring Pictures

I wasn't expecting spring school pictures but I guess those photo companies take every chance they get to make money, so when they came in to do graduation pics, we got spring photos too.
It's amazing how much they have changed just since the beginning of the school year. I'll be on the verge of tears for the next week or so leading up to the last day of school & graduation, just fyi...

We'll go ahead & call these their 5 year old pics too. I think we've spent more on school photos this year than we ever have with any of the photographers we've used.

School Pictures - VPK

School pictures are what they are, right??? LOL...

The boys school sent home a flyer with a fantastic sample spread on it! I was actually kind of excited about the Christmas pics they were going to do (hence the red vests) Long story short, they didn't do the Christmas prop/theme photos & the fancy dance backdrop they used was nice but the boys were posed all kinds of weird. These photos are the best of the school photos, I'm pretty smitten with them... once I came around to the fact that they are posed photos :)

They did take a group photo of the boys too, but the boys did not look thrilled in the slighted to be having the picture taken, so it was a no go. I returned it already or I would scan it just for fun, lol :D

I Need Help Deciding...

We had Fall Family/3.5 year photos taken a couple weeks ago, I know, more photos. I promise I'm cutting back to twice a year but sometimes I just can't help myself. Anyways back to the photos, I always have great intentions of keeping the photos to ourselves so the Christmas card photo will be something new, no one has seen yet but I have a terrible time deciding which photo to use so I'm posting them here on the blog & asking for HELP?!?!?!

I love the smirk on Kellans face, haha 


I love them all & love that they were taken here in FL just as we moved here. You can only see it in one photo but the truck has an old Florida license plate on the front of it. I didn't notice it the day of the photos but it kind of seems symbolic now :)

So which is your favorite? What should I use on our Christmas card?

3 Years & 3 Months

I mentioned before that we had some studio photos taken of the boys a couple weeks ago & shared one. It was not my intention to have photos done again so soon but I wanted a group shot of the boys for family & friends & didn't get one without Donna & I in the boys 3 year photos. So i took the boys to one of those express photo places in hopes of a decent group photo. I was totally blown away by all the smiles they got out of the boys, so ended up getting a few more photos than i had planned too but who can turn down beautiful smiles of their own children :)

Here are a few more photos from that session, the files included on the disk are crooked but they straightened out the photos we got prints of.

3 Year Photos

They're back! I received our photo CD in the mail last week & have been oogling over the photos ever since. As I mentioned in the post we went about this session very casually. We walked around our old town of Mt Dora, took in the sights, played in the fountains & took advantage of a few places that made for nice backdrops. It was a fun morning catching up with a friend & hanging out with grandma too.

Here are some of my favorites...

Which one do you like better?

 Now I need help deciding between the next 2, one K is drinking from a water bottle but everyone else is looking at the camera & at least Donna & I are smiling, the second Caden is holding the bottle but his face is visable, Donnas face is ok & it looks like I was talking. Which would you hang on the wall?



Thank you to my sweet friend Kareen for putting up with us once again & chasing around 3, 3 year olds on a warm & humid Sunday morning.
