Jason's Turning NINE!

GO SPEEDRACER, GO!




Jason’s first sleepover!
Well, tonight is Jason's very first real SLEEPOVER party! He is having a birthday party at 5:30 when everyone will arrive and have pizza and then cake and then at 8:05, SpeedRacer starts at the movies and Todd and I will be taking FIVE little boys to see it! LOL I cannot wait! He is going to have a blast! We have snacks galore and fun stuff for the boys to do. The highlight of the night will be the "Disgusting Popcicle Challenge" where each boy will get to design their own popcicle flavor with things like pickle juice, lemon juice, shredded cheese, sour cream, etc. Guess who's the judge??!!! I am. Ick. I have to taste each popcicle and the most disgusting one will win a prize! Today, I am running around like crazy. I have cleaned my entire house top to bottom. I am waiting for one of the boys' parents to come drop off their bag and then I am going to pick up the cake and prizes and go to Jason's school for field day! I will only be at field day for the last hour or so and then I'll bring 2 of his friends home with us. Sarah is staying the night with a friend tonight so that she won't sabotage his party! LOL She'll be around for the pizza and stuff but that's it. I told the boys they can stay up all night if they want. Their moms are coming at noon to get them. I am making pancakes in the morning!
We also got pillowcases and fabric markers so they can all design their own pillowcase. It's going to be a great night! I can't wait!
Last night, Jason made me cry. It was the good tears, though! He came in the living room to tell me goodnight and I told him I'd come in his room in a minute. I went to go in his room and found a note attached to the door that read "Mom, I know how hard you work for all of us and I wanted to do something nice for you. Open my door and you'll see what I mean". I opened the door and found a SPOTLESS room! The bed was even made! What a precious boy! I can't wait to give him a great party tonight. He doesn't know it, but he's getting a cell phone tonight! It's the "Go" phones for kids but they are real cell phones! He is getting a bicycle ON his birthday on the 22nd but we wanted him to have a phone for security while he's riding around the neighborhood. I'll feel better knowing he has it if he needs it and it's pre-paid so we can't get into a cellular minute mess! LOL
Hope you all are having a great day!
Love, Sharon

Hey, Everyone! Whew! I am finally back online and since I went for 3 whole weeks without the internet, I am finding it hard to get back into the groove! LOL I am going to post several photos with descriptions of things from the past few weeks! :) Sharon



I took this picture of Sarah Saturday at her Dance Recital Photo Shoot. I thought she looked a lot like Shirley Temple with those blonde curls and her serious face! She really does favor her. We've been told that before, but now I think I see it! All of the little girls were sooooo adorable in their outfits for their pictures! I loved it! I cannot wait for her recital! It's May 30th!




This is the Shirley Temple picture Sarah looked like.
Sarah & her friend, Emma realize that they "match!" So sweet!

This will now top the charts as one of my ALL TIME favorites of Sarah...

Jumping around like a silly girl!

Getting primped and ready!
The following pictures are from Jason's school at the Mother's Day Tea Party! It was so precious and Jason wrote and read some wonderful poems! All of the kids did really great. It was very touching....and yes....I cried!

These next photos are from the little kitten that showed up on our street without a home. Sarah LOVED LOVED LOVED this kitty. She did get in trouble though for taking the kitten inside while we were all in the yard, locking all the doors and not letting us in! The kitten pee-peed in her room and I had to clean up a mess! She looked right at Todd talking to her through the window and told him "no" when he told her to go open the door! All in all, it was pretty funny, though! I thought she was sooooo cute holding this kitten!
How could my mommy & daddy say no to this sweet smiley face?!?
Next is "Perrin's Final Flight" from Jason's school. This is the last year for Perrin Elementary. It will become an alternative school next year. It's been an awesome school for Jason. We have LOVED his teacher. She is the most amazing teacher ever! All of his teachers have been wonderful! We went to the big night at school and Jason had entered the art contest! He won a prize! He was so excited! This is the artwork that won!



The next photos are from playing in the back yard! The kids have had a blast playing. I got them some foam swords and turned on the bubble machine and they had so much fun playing "sword" fights in the yard. Sarah couldn't help herself...she was right in the middle of it! She can certainly "keep up" with the big boys! I love how she still looks and smiles at the camera even in the middle of a sword fight! Go Zorro! LOL


These are some great pics of a sunset I saw last week! I thought it was beautiful!




This is our friends Robby & Reese that came over to visit. Sarah LOVES holding Baby Reese! She lights up when she's in the room!

Okay, verizon has now told us our internet will not work until May 14th! EEEEEEKK! I am so disgusted with them. I am at my in-laws house right now and have internet but will be leaving to go home in a few minutes and will once again be without the internet! Hope to talk online to all of you after May 14th! Hope you have a great week!
