Last Day Of School!
Today was our last day of school. We finished it with a pinic at the park. Katy will continue her reading with her tutor one day a week. She took a test over book one and she received 150 correct answers out of 158 questions. I am so proud of her progress! She will now be going to book 2. I know there are children much younger than her that are reading better than she does but I can't tell you how happy I am when I hear her little voice read! The books she can read are geared toward younger children but we have to start somewhere. I am so thankful for the progress she has made over the past few months!

Play Ground Update
Here is an up date on the playground. The guys measured and cut out the black top in the church parking lot. They made it 26x41 and 6 inches deep. This is where the play ground equipment will go. The play ground itself will be 30x80. Next they chipped out all the black top which was a pretty big job! Then they had to get all the pieces of black top and load them up and haul them off. Next they leveled the ground for the play ground equipment. The play ground equipment has been ordered and it should be here in 2 weeks. Then we will fill around the play ground equipment with what ever we decide to use. That has not been fully determined yet. There will be a fence around it too. Here are some pictures of the progress.

Katy Is Home!
Katy is back from Special Olympics. She placed 4th in the 50 yard dash. She missed the bronze by inches. She had a great time. They ate at Eskimo Joes and purchased T-shirts and other goodies. Eskimo Joes produces a commemorative Special Olympics Oklahoma Summer Games t-shirt, with part of the proceeds benefiting Special Olympics Oklahoma. The team ended the 3 day event with a dance. Thanks to Coach Sharry and all the other helpers including my sister Lisa for all the time you spend helping the team. The hours of time spent with each athlete does not go unnoticed!
Mother's Day Tea
My Grand daughter Brooklynn invited me to her Mothers Day Tea at school. They could invite their Mom's and or Nana's. The classroom was decorated with flowers and the children were so adorable! They sang the cutest songs and They made cards for their Moms. They served us Lemonade and cute little cookies and chocolate dipped strawberries. I am so glad I got to be a part of the fun! Thanks for the invitation Brooklynn!

Can you say Beverly Hillbillies?
We had so much fun going to garage sales. My daughter Ashley and my daughter in law Ashley all went with kids in tow Friday evening. Ashley and I went Saturday as daughter in law had to study for her exit exam in nursing school. Ashley found a lot! You can read about her bargains here. She was loaded down when she left Saturday afternoon. I couldn’t resist taking a picture. Her Dad told her she would have to leave something behind until our next visit. Ashley was determined to get it all home. So this was the end result of all the packing and loading!
Happy Birthday Hayden!
We got home too late for me to post on Hayden's actual Birthday. He was three years old yesterday. We had a party at the park. His Mom and Dad and Nana's and Poppa's and his great Grandparents and his Aunts and Uncles and all his cousins were there to help celebrate. He had a car's cake and received some fun presents! His favorite was his ride on gator. Happy Birthday Hayden we love you!
