Happy 30th to me!!!

Kids new Birdhouse!

Duane sent me these pictures I thot they were pretty cool especially the lightning ones!

Morning out with Mommy, having coffee & a cookie at Starbucks...

Check out the size of their cookies, and no she didn't eat the whole thing, just half...

Desirees new shoes

Desiree picked out these new crocs and the "Superwoman" logo to go with them today! She is really into being Superwoman and showing me her "muscles" and how fast she can go...so these shoes are perfect!

Trei Graduated tonite, they wore their caps and gowns and sang a few songs for all of us and received a diploma! Then they played a video clip Duane had made for Trei on his "Big day", it was so special for all of us! Here are some pics that I took and a few my girlfriend took who is a photographer! Enjoy!!! I can't believe he will be starting Kindergarten this Fall!

The kids and I found some gel ice cubes that look like fish...they thot they were sooo cool and wanted to see how they worked so we brought them home washed them and placed them in the freezer for 30 minutes and voila put them in their drink to chill it and they just loved watching "the fish" in there...I took a few pics! I had never heard of these till about 8 years ago but they work well as they don't dilute your beverage. Sure makes the kids want to drink more water...

Today was Trei's last day of Preschool, they practiced for their graduation tomorrow and had a fun last day with activities & outdoor play. The teachers gave each parent a "Me book" that the kids had worked on all year, with their hand prints, weight and height at the beginning of the school year till the last day of the school year and writing samples and coloring, it was awesome. The Teachers were emotional and so were us Mom's, its bittersweet in a way...Tomorrow nite they graduate, caps and gowns and all!!!

Today was the 1st day this year we were able to use our pool, it was 104F and the water felt good! We are normally swimming by the end of April but we have had a cooler year! The kids were sooo excited to be able to use the pool and we swam for two hours! I snapped some pics with my phone... Desiree's new bathing suit she picked it has Cherries and strawberries on it. Old Navy $8!

Old Navy is having a huge swim sale if you need swim wear and accessories, bathing suits/swim shirts for kids are $8 and beach towels are 2 for $10 and they have flip-flops and more..not bad!

My Brother-in-law sent me this picture of their new little boy, Conner William Vitali, he was born May 15th! Congratulations Michael and Amy, Can't wait to meet him!

Outdoor day at school

Wednesday Trei's school had "Outdoor day" & Desiree and I attended, they had water play set up, hula-hoops, bubbles, handyman set, chalk, ring toss, basketball and more, the kids had a great time and were so wiped at the end of it. It was nice to see Trei interact with the other kids and show his sister how they do things there at school...It was nice for me to go since this is his last week of Pre-K! Trei and his friend Luke.

Bubbles!

Water painting.

Mini Ice cream cones for snack on picnic blankets!

My Mothers Day

Roses from Duane.Pencil holder Trei made at school for Mothers day!

Mothers day Card he made at school!

Mothers Day Craft he made at Sunday School this morning!

I just recently tried Jillian Michaels' "Boost your Metabolism" 50 minute workout and all I can say is WOW! If you are bored and want a challenging, good calorie burning workout with toning included this is the one!!! I did it for free on my "On Demand fitness" channel.. It was great!!! All her workouts are good but this one is more then 20 minutes which is what I like and I felt like I worked out hard...

Desi's new sunglasses

So Desiree always sees Trei and I wearing our sunglasses and wants a pair of her own, not that she hasn't had a pair before but I think when she did she was too young to know what they were for....Today I took her to the store to pick a pair out and she chose these cute "Dora" ones, the lenses seem a bit big, or at least I think so but she loves them and wore them the entire time we played outside today!!!

The kids making a rocket...

Trei's last day of sharing at Pre-school!

As you read Trei had his Kindergarten eval last week and will be starting mid-August!!! Last week he had his "sharing day" at Pre-K he brought his lego cars that Daddy has sent him from the ship.I took some pics and a video clip..pardon the jumpiness of it, I had Desiree in my lap and she was all over the place..heh!

I Scream, You Scream we all Scream for Ice-cream...

My kids Love popsicles and Ice-cream, guess all kids do..they really enjoy the "Skinny Cow" ones that I buy for me, today we found a new one at the store, French Vanilla with drizzled chocolate...They tasted real good and only 100 Calories, I don't know how they do it!
