1. This week Garrison was the "student of the week" and it was a spectacular week!! Garrison got to pick his favorite recipe - he chose to bake his friends Cherry Coffee Cake! He also had a display board outside his classroom, had a chance to talk to his board with his friends, telling his friends about where his Mommy & Daddy work and bringing his favorite book to read before rest time. All-in-all it was a pretty fantastic week for him (and us!).
2. On Tuesday, Chad brought flowers to my cube as a surprise - and a fantastic surprise it was!!!
3. Peyton was awarded the Principal's Pride Squad in March for exhibiting the Blue Valley Virtue of Kindness - so proud of this girl!!
4. On Wednesday, Chad went on a trip to Las Vegas with one of his college buddies and they had a great time!! They spent their time at the MGM New York, New York casino/hotel. While there, they had fun playing a round at The Royal Links golf course and visiting several casinos, including downtown Las Vegas. The trip was reasonably short but a good time was had by all. (I need to ocme back and add pictures as I just realized I haven't downloaded Chad's phone - oops!)
5. While Chad was away, Grammy came up to help a bit with some logistics so we enjoyed having her up for one of the nights. Then on Friday, we went down to Grammy & Grandpa's for a visit and had a great time!! Friday we went to the Rotary Shrimp dinner - Peyton & Garrison were Grandpa's big helper with all of the carry-out meals he was fulfilling and they had a blast!! On Saturday, we spent the day relaxing, playing games and playing outside. The kiddos stayed overnight on Saturday night while I went home to go to a charity function. On Sunday, they came home shortly after lunch after having a busy but fun weekend!!
(this bike was my Grandma's stationary bike and I remember riding it a lot as a kid - so fun to see Peyton on it now at Grammy's house!)
6. On Sunday, Peyton started a new swim class, the highest level available at her swim location. This class is a swim team prep and is an hour long of swimming laps and perfecting her strokes. She was a bit nervous but did a fantastic job. Peyton was even singled out to show the rest of the class the proper form for the freestyle stroke. SO proud of her swimming accomplishments!!

I really enjoyed the bonus time with Amanda and the little people. We had a great time with the marshmallow shooters, playing games, etc. When I picked Garrison up at school, he loved showing me his poster, pictures, etc. - especially the picture of him as a baby. We are blessed.
