What A Hot Dog!

Who caught sight of the camera? 
 Who loves himself some attention?


Memorial Day 5K

Carolyn and Coleman participated in the Memorial Day Run today.  (This was the second time for Coleman.)
 Carolyn decided the 1 mile fun run was more her speed. 
  She is turning into quite the little runner!
Carolyn and Hannah ran the 5K.  
 
This is the largest 5K they've done so far-there were a LOT of runners today! (I love that they run together!)
After the race we stayed for the parade.  Sitting on a curb in small town America eating a hotdog and watching a parade was a great way to spend the morning!

The best s'mores are made over a campfire
with leftover Easter peeps.

5th Grade Walk

 




Last Day of Elementary School

On to middle school!

Birthday Cupcakes

Carolyn's birthday is always the last week of school.  I didn't realize it until she mentioned it yesterday, but this is the first year her birthday has fallen on a school day!

Of course, we had to send in cupcakes!
 I made these panda ones because they were easy!
 I couldn't find the right candy for the eyes, but these candy eyes worked.  Even if all of the pandas do look a little startled!
The birthday girl loved them, and that was all that mattered...

First Tournament of the Season

Our first lacrosse tournament of the summer was this weekend.  The weather could not have been nicer!  
We made a very tough decision for Coleman to play with a different team this summer and so far it has definitely been the correct one.  
We all had a great time this weekend (and took quite a bit of good-natured ribbing from our home team fans about wearing the wrong colors!) 
 His team went 2-3 but played really well for players coming together from six different programs.
Coleman had 3 goals and 3 assists.  Not too shabby!  He is making a lot of new friends-and so is Carolyn!
I mom, therefore I blog.
