Palm Beach Getaway

This past weekend was packed with activity! After Ben's party Mommy had to pack us up because Sunday morning we left for Palm Beach with Gammy and Ogie. (Daddy came down on Monday afternoon since he had to work.) The boys had a great time digging at the beach and playing in the pool. This is the same hotel we always stay at with a large water slide. This year Ben was able to walk up the steps and go down the slide all by himself! (I am THRILLED he is not a scare-dy cat like his mommy!)

Sam had a blast going down the slide with Mommy and walking around everywhere! When Daddy came all the boys wanted to do was be with him and cuddle. As you can see Sam was worn out by all the activity and fell asleep pool side! I wasn't able to take a good picture of the boys together, they were not cooperative! Maybe soon I will get a better one.

Ben's 3rd Birthday Party

We celebrated Ben's 3rd birthday this year a little early. Carter is Ben's best friend, and ever since the boys were born we have talked about having a joint birthday party. Since the boys are into trains we decided to have a train themed party complete with an actual train, Thomas bounce house, Thomas cake, and train sandwiches. It was EXTREMELY hot and humid that morning, but it did not stop the boys from having a BLAST! Ben was even able to convince Ogie to go on the train!

Andy and I can't believe our baby is almost 3, where has the time gone? We are so proud of him and what a well behaved, sweet, loving boy he is becoming. We will actually be in Dallas on his birthday and able to celebrate it with his Mimi and Pops!

Gulliver here we come!

So it is official I have a job teaching 3rd grade at Gulliver Academy!!! God is so faithful! I had not yet signed with the other school, and my former principal called me and asked if I would like to come back, and of course I jumped at the opportunity. I will only be teaching 10-12 kids, and the higher level students. I will be teaching 7 students whose sibling I have already taught, so it will be a smooth transition.

As of right now they do not have a spot for Ben, so he is currently enrolled at a church not far from my mother's house. Andy will have off Tuesday and Wednesday, so he will be watching the boys, and the rest of the week my mom will have them! Everyone is helping so it will be easy for me to leave the boys. I am very upset that I have to leave, but thrilled it is to a place that I LOVE to work! Ben will go to school MWF from 9-3, T&Th 9-12 with Sam. Hopefully Ben will be able to go to Gulliver with me, but I won't know for a while.

Thank you for all your prayers!!!!!!!
