Rocket Day

Today was Rocket Day at Milburn Park. It's the 1st graders big end-of-the-year party. Each student built a rocket and today they got to launch it. It was awesome! It was super hot, as usual, but Allie was in preschool so I didn't care :) Afterwards they played and had BBQ hot dogs.

Here are some pictures of Stewart with all his (girl) friends. Hey, the girls keep him out of trouble! They're like little mothers and they manage to keep the boy on the straight and narrow when I'm not around. I'll worry about the ramifications when he becomes a teenager :)

Yes, I know. Allie looks like she's been beaten with a stick. But if you could look past the band aids and the scratches and the bruises, you'll notice that she is wearing several accessories. On her right hand is my wedding ring, her left hand is my new Stella and Dot ring, and her toe is my Silpada ring. The girl has expensive taste!


A couple of weeks ago I cleaned out Stewart's room and got rid of an embarrassing amount of junk. Instead of donating some of it, Stewart opted to have a garage sale. So this morning in the 90 million percent humidity and gail force winds we attempted to have just that. After an hour Stew got bored so we gave up. We never sold anything :( But at least the kids had a blast! He wants to try again on Monday when "The kids will be walking home from school." Quite the little entrepreneur!

Stewart Turns 7

Stewart's birthday was a big one this year. Stephen was home so the boys went to the Mammoth Dig Site in Waco. Stewart's big present this year was a computer. He was so surprised! On his birthday I brought him lunch and then he and his classmates had cupcakes. Then for dinner we all went to Chuck E Cheese. It was a big day!
