Savannah Graduates from Preschool!

I am so excited and sad all at the same time.  My baby girl graduated from preschool and will now be going to kindergarten!  She has learned a lot from Mrs. Susan's 2 years of preschool but she is looking forward to going to the same school that Tanner goes to, especially to play on the playground.  She had a graduation picnic at the park a few days ago.  And then the next day had her graduation program.   

Look at how tall she is compared to everyone else in her class!  When we registered her for kindergarten the lady asked me if I was sure she wasn't already in kindergarten or 1st grade.  As the mom I sure hope I know if my daughter was in school yet or not!

Mrs. Susan is a short woman and was kneeling with all the other kids to take a picture.  But when Savannah's turn came she decided it would be better to stand since Savannah was taller then she was on her knees.

Spencer also had fun at the park with Savannah and her class.  He wasn't sure what to think of the wood chips.  I think it was worse then grass for him!  And he finally enjoyed a swing.

Congratulations, Savannah!!

10 Years!

Last Thursday (April 29) we celebrated a momentous occasion: Our 10 year Anniversary!  WOW, how the time has flown by. So many fun, sad and exciting memories - but that's marriage, right?  Right?  Anyway, we thought it'd be fun to take a little trip down memory lane, back to that wonderful day when it officially started (although Darin and I felt like a married couple long before that, since we dated for 2 years - minus our living together, of course).  Anyhoo, please take a gander at the movie slideshow below.  My, how we've all grown up (and out).  Thank you to all our family and friends who have helped us and been there for us through the years, every one of you are very special to us.  Lea, Kevin, David and MariAnn: I couldn't find any pictures of you.  Lots of your kids, though (except Josh, he hid like you all did).   Our families and friends made that day such a fun and memorable time, and the pictures show a small part of our celebration.


By the way, it's all scored to our song, "I Know How The River Feels," by Diamond Rio. Yes, it's country. Get over it... or turn the volume down. Here you go:

I am so thankful to be married to such a sweet, patient and caring man.  Thank you for being you and putting up with me!  You are such a great dad.  The kids love and adore you so much.  I love you sweetheart!
