School’s out for the Summer!

Happy last day of school! Even though we are SO READY for Summer, we are SUPER sad to be leaving JPES. They have not only been amazing with the kiddos but to the family as well. We have been so blessed with such great teachers at JPES. Yes, I say “we” because they have also been amazing to Jason and I. They get to see and spend more time with my babies during the day than I do so knowing that they are being taken care of and loved means the world to me. Almost everyone of them has sent pictures or texts to me during the day- and they deal with me being “extra” and even with my “Helicopter Mom” ways-I appreciate that. They have shown up to birthday parties, sporting events; they don’t just stop at the classroom. The girls passed with A Honor Roll and Jax with S+.

Making memories at Gardening with Grandma, muffins w/mom, donuts w/dad, father daughter dances, Veteran’s Day celebrations allowing my grandparents to come have breakfast at school with their great grands just some of the things experienced at JPES that will be special to us. Brayklee will be moving up to middle school, I’m terrified. JayceeRae will be a 4th grader and Jaxon a big 1st grader! I know they will do well, they’re good smart kids but still terrified. AND next year will start the time where each of them will be in a different school. Elementary, Intermediate and Middle- Lord be with me with drop offs…

Monkey Grass Kicked my… tush!

Who’s idea was it to relocate the Liriope again??? ME, it was me… I was the smart one who decided to relocate over a hundred “sprigs” of monkey grass from one section to another in the nice, hot, dry, SC dirt! It took a bit, but I finished the front walkway area this weekend, and actually this weekend was the easiest section. Not sure if it was the really awesome tool I found at Marvins or the fact it wasn’t 90+ degrees outside and it had rained the day before. I sure hope it sticks and grows in as full as it is in other spots throughout the yard. I am happy with it though. I just don’t like playing the waiting game –

Jason and I also went galivanting this Saturday and found a really cute “She Shed” sign for the cabin aka my she shed lol and the to my surprise Rhanda made me the doormat I told her about! She did awesome-It looks great!

We got a lot done this weekend, it was nice too- just quality down time with the hubby tinkering around the house. Oh! and beside hanging things Jason took down the chandelier and I painted it a Rubbed Oil Bronze! It turned out sooo good- I love it! And he installed a new fan in the frog …We still have tons to do but it’s coming around!
