Not a clever criminal

Sara needs some work on not claiming her destruction. See the paper next to her desk scribbles.

Nick Swimmer of the Month

Congratulations, Nicholas, for getting Swimmer of the Month for his practice group. We are so proud of you and how hard you are working in and out of the pool.

Happy Birthday, Peter!

Happy birthday, Peter! You are such a sweet and kind young man. You love to help Dad around the house and at meets, help Mom in the kitchen, and play with your siblings. Your giving heart always makes us proud. 

Glad we could share Captain America Civil War today on Mother's Day!

We didn't have 11 candles, so Alex made a plus sign. Love our family!

Clare

This morning Clare told me, "Mom, it's hard to believe you are older than Dad because you don't have as much white hair as he does!"

Love that girl!

Alex First Day of School

First day of school! Heading to Collin for his first college class. 💗

Christmas 2015

Had a great Christmas with Christmas Eve dinner with Grandma and Grandpa Graham. Dad made prime rib on the Green Egg. Yum!

Peter, Clare and Sara were in the Christmas pageant at St. Jude for the 8 PM Mass. Enjoyed lots of family time all day with the Grahams coming over in the afternoon. Georgia, Gene, Don, Cynthia, Steve, June, Dillon, Davis, and Grandma and Grandpa all made it and we had a great visit.

Funny things to remember:
1) Clare running to pull the Spirograph picture off her Christmas list after she opened her gift from Allison and she received Spirograph. ("I can take that off the list now!"
2) Sara opening a gift and Alex told her, "Sara, look what you got! An Amazon box! What do you say?" and she ran to tell Grandma and Grandpa thank you. We then explained to her she could actually finish opening the gift to see what was in the box.
