Harrison's Preschool Ceremony

Here are a few pictures and two videos from Harrison's preschool end of the year ceremony!  He was soooo cute!  Of course!  :)  No bias here! 

He had a great year which he LOVED!  He couldn't wait at the end of each week to go again the next week.  Next fall he is going to go 3 days a week which I know he will absolutely love!  Enjoy the video and pics!

Our Day Out With THOMAS!!!!

So, this spring Thomas the train was in 3 cities near us and we decided that we HAD to take Harrison to go and see him.  This would be a once in a lifetime thing that we really wanted to take him to!  Here are some of the pictures we took and a couple of videos of Harrison when we told him what we were about to do and also when he first saw Thomas as we walked toward the entrance.  Enjoy!

Azaleas and Easter

Here are some pictures in front of our azaleas this year as well as some pictures of Easter fun!  Hope you enjoy!

Those are two really cute kids!!!  :)

Soccer Videos!

This is a video of Harrison attempting the practice drills! 

This is Harrison playing for a couple minutes in one of the quarters.  See how well he stays with the ball.....    :). If you watch really close, he gets mad because they take the ball out of play due to it going out of bounds. Derrick is standing on the sidelines for this quarter, giving the assistant coach the opportunity to coach some and get used to it. Enjoy!  

GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, today we became a soccer playing family!  I put on my facebook status today that we were on our way to our first soccer game with Harrison...Derrick is the coach, I am the team Mom, we were bringing the snacks and we drive a van...Does that make me a "soccer Mom"?  I got several funny comments! 

So, at 7:45am, on a Saturday morning, we were on our way to the soccer fields.  We were loaded with foldable chairs, bottled waters, snacks and the cutest little soccer player in the world!  (The coach was pretty cute himself!)  We were all a little nervous.  Harrison was excited to be going to play soccer with his "new friends".  It was quite an adventure.  Out of five kids, we only had one meltdown...Harrison started crying when he had to stop playing and give someone else a turn!  So, I guess he was having a good time!  Anyway, to say the least, I took a million pictures!  Here are a few of the highlights!

This was the "dress rehearsal" the night before!

                                                             Walking with Paw Paw...

                        He ACTUALLY rode the camel all by himself....cause I sure didn't want to do it!
                                 (The little boy with him smiled the whole time except for this picture!)



We had a great time!  Sure to go back again soon!
