Proud

I love the kids' writing assignments.  Love them.

Griffin is 5!

Its so fun to wake up to a yard card on your birthday!



A little party at school the day before his bday....







Griffin's birthday was on the last day of school, so they had a little program for the parents.






Doing the signs for "yes, jesus loves me".  Griffin was little out of synch.  :) Still, so sweet.  Especially since he was holding on longer to the "love" part.


Griffin was so specific about his party this year.  He wanted to invite every friend that he had play dates with during the school year.  No more.  No less.  The boy knows what he wants.  :)












Our neighbors came over for dinner to help Griffin celebrate again.  Check out Griffin's crazy amazing new shark from jack!



I've definitely been "light" on the personal photo taking.  Not one photo of the family on Griff's bday. We had a great time dining outside and eating more cupcakes.  Was great fun -- we love FIVE!

Boston

We had a fun weekend in Boston on a quick family trip.  We stayed in the hotel where Mike always stays - so it was fun to see where he hangs out, eats dinner, works out, swims, etc.. during the week.  We met a lot of the staff there and were treated incredibly.  We were upgraded to the most incredible corner suite, complete with incredible views of Boston.  The boys had a huge room, Mike and I had a huge master suite and we had an enormous living and dining room.  That, combined with the pool and the gym downstairs, would have been plenty to keep the boys and I happy all weekend!

We were greeted with this awesome tray of food and the sweetest note.



Out and about, checking things out.

Notice the boys on the tv....

I didn't take near enough photos of our weekend so I decided to snap one more when we arrived back to the Charlotte airport.  It went over well, as you can tell.  Griffin was over it.  :)


Excited to go back!!
