Big Update

So working full time leaves little time for anything else. Seems like our weekends are soccer games, grocery store and Costco. I apologize for the 3 months of silence. Here is an update on our craziness in one big post.

For Spring Break we split our time between a fabulous hotel in San Antonio and then a quick trip to Macie and Cap's house. The JW Marriott in San Antonio is our new happy place. 

This is a selfie we took on the golf cart that brings you from your car to the hotel. 

Out to dinner with Macie and Cap. We had to wait for a bit for our food, so we decided to take a bunch of pictures to pass the time - some good, some goofy.

Bluebonnets are a sign of spring in Texas. This year we went a little early so missed their peak. But got a couple of good pictures nonetheless.

Easter is never complete without our bunny cake. Thanks Grant for helping me this year!

Grant's 2nd grade field trip to the Austin Zoo.

Swim team began the beginning of May. The boys are really excited for this season. For practice, their coaches moved both of them up to the next age group because they were worried that they wouldn't be challenged enough by practicing with their age group. For meets they will swim with their age group....boys are hopeful this will mean lots of ribbons this year.

Every Mother's Day the first grade classes have a Mother's Day tea. The kids spend a month getting ready for it - preparing poetry and decorations. It's one of my most favorite things ever. I cried when I went with Grant last year and cried again this year.
This year Beckett greeted me in the first grade hallway. When presenting me with my crown, he got down on one knee, just like a knight. He is so sweet.

Field Day! One of the greatest days in elementary school. This year they did field day activities for 2 hours. Had lunch. Played in bounce houses for 45 minutes. Watched 5th grade tug o war. What a great day!

Pull Beckett!

We have 2 more weeks of school. The end is in sight! I am ready for some slower days. We have our first swim meet next weekend (May 28th). Will try to keep the updates coming!
