Red Day!

Druz and Camdyn had Red Day at school today.  All I could find was Ohio State clothes.  After sending my Dad the picture of these two he said their inheritance was just up'd.  I feel like the person who picked out the clothes should benefit from this as well but he disagreed. ;o(

Go Cowboys!

We went to the Cowboys vs. Saints game last night.  There was some great people watching.  Those Saints fans are cray cray!

We must be good luck though because the Cowboys actually won and looked good doing it!  

We were close enough that I had a little sweat flung on me (not really but it definitely could have happened).  I also gave them a little pep talk from our seats so I'm sure that was the REAL reason they got it together.  

It was a great game to be at and hopefully they will continue to look this good!

Milestones

We hit two serious milestones in the Harig household today...

Druz and Camdyn had their first day of pre-school today.  I'm almost sad to say they did great!  Not one tear from either.  That's unusual for Camdyn, at her age, she cries on occasion when I just leave the room.  Druz picked out his own outfit for the day, not too bad.  Although, I was hoping having a boy would mean I got to pick his clothes for a while longer.  Let's hope today was just a one time thing. 

The second, slightly less important, but none the less noteworthy milestone...I'm officially a Texan.  I've lived in this great state since I was 9.  I won't tell you exactly how many years that is but it's been a long time.  Today, I received my very first pair of cowboy boots!  Yeehaw!  I've been looking for a couple years now and finally decided to pull the trigger last week.  So, there you go.

  

This little girl is crazy!

Soccer and Birthdays

Both kids had their first soccer games of the season this morning.  I took no pictures.  Not sure how that happen. I did take some video so we at least have that, I guess.  Druz was so pumped and then got stage fright when it was go time.  He finally started to play in the last quarter.  Hopefully, he will be more interested in playing at the next game.  

Tatum played great, she got right out there, scored a few goals and had fun.  Some of the other girls on her team have really stepped up their skills since last season so this should be a fun year to watch both kids teams.

After the games, Tatum and I headed to a birthday party.  She had a blast getting thrown into foam pits and doing cheerleading stunts...just don't tell her Dad.  He is doing his best to avoid the cheerleading thing with Tatum.  

Curriculum Night

Tatum's school had curriculum night tonight.  The kids had soccer practice so Dylan took them to that and I headed up to the school to see the teacher and get the scoop on this Kindergarten thing.

They threw more information at us than I could process.  I almost felt like I was in kindergarten again.  I do like seeing and talking to the teachers just so I know what's going on.  It's fun to see where she sits and all her little projects she is already working on.

This was her paper plate person she made and told me to "keep my eye on it".  She meant keep an eye out for it, I knew what she meant and loved her creativity.

These two...I can't leave them alone for a second...literally.

Happy Birthday Tatum!

I swear just yesterday she was a little baby.  5 years flew by so fast!  I love the person she is growing in to and wake up everyday excited to see her and that beautiful smile.  

She requested a picture with Daddy

5 years old!

She had to have one with Druz and Camdyn too!

She had a great day.  She got a cinnamon roll with a candle for breakfast, I got to go have lunch with her at school (check out our selfie), and she was on the morning announcements.

After school we had everyone over for dinner and cake.

I found these notes in Tatums backpack.  They are all the love notesI put in her lunch box in preschool.  So sweet to find that she kept every single one!

Silhouettes

I've always wanted to get silhouettes of the kids and happened to come across someone that does them so I figured why not?

How great are these?!?!?!?!

Visitors

Liz was in town this week so we got to have some fun play dates...

Hanging out at Urban Air with Callie

We got all the kids together for about 2 second, just enough tie to snap this picture!

We went to Central Market in the rain and the kids had fun getting wet, playing with friends and eating popscicles.

Since Dylan is out of town hanging out with Uncle Steve and crew in Houston, we decided to do a little worshipping online.  This little one and I watched our church service online.  It was so nice to get to watch it and not have to stress about getting everyone ready on time!!!

Prom

Tyler had his senior prom last night.  I'm sure he made some good memories and had a lot of fun with his friends.  Handsome kid, he is.

Hunter Turns 4!

We hung out at Parr Park this morning for Hunter's Birthday Party.  The kids had a great time.

I lost Tatum and almost lost it myself but kept it together just in time to find her.  I seriously was TERRIFIED because I couldn't find her!  Three kids is a lot to keep track of at a big park.  Thank God one isn't mobile yet!  Life will be interesting when I have three to chase!

Dinner with the girls!

Since Liz is back we decided to make a night of it.  We had dinner and drinks at Del Frisco's Grill and just caught up with everyone!  The weather was perfect for the patio and it was so nice to see everyone!

Dylan left for Houston before I headed out with the girls.  I dropped him off 3 hours before his flight. Probably not the best place to leave someone who has a fear of flying...too much time to think.  He did manage to get on the plane and make it to Uncle Steve's.

Tatum was up when I got home at 10:30.  That is what happens when the Aunt babysits!

Preschool Graduation

Tatum graduated from Pre-school last night.  It was a bitter sweet ceremony.

They had the schools end of year program and then the graduation for the kids right after.  I didn't cry but I was close!

Druz and his class singing about their Beach Balls

Tatum doing her surfing dance

The whole school...Tatum is right behind Druz.  Too cute!

Her graduation walk

Ms. Traci handing over her diploma

She did it!

So proud of her this year!

Tatum had a solo in her performance.  I had no idea.  She never mentioned it so I was very pleasantly surprised to hear her belt out her part and she did great!

My crazy girl

This is how she asked for her hair to be done before school...a bun on one side and a braid on the other.  Who am I to judge?

We didn't have gymnastics after school today because the end of year performance is Thursday.  Instead, we went over to Kinley and Ty's house to play.  The girls decided to put on make up.  She felt pretty cool.

Selfies at such a young age.

And just like that...my little boy is 3!

My little boy is growing up!  He turns 3 today.  

Druz is our soft soul and has a big heart.  He loves to snuggle and is a Mama's boy.  He is all boy and gets more rowdy every day.  I love how laid back and go with the flow he is but I guess that's probably a requirement living with so many girls!  He LOVES helping Daddy with anything and everything around the house.  Cars, trucks, and tools are his go-to toys and he of course loves all things sports and outdoors, except the cool. ;o)

Happy Birthday Druz!  

I ordered this massive balloon early so the night before his birthday I had to pick it up.  I took Dylan's car and I barely got it inside!

His birthday morning set up

I put some fun birthday things around the house for him to wake up to in the morning.

Streamers on the door...sad thing was that he woke up in the middle of the night and these probably scared him to death than make him happy.  

Druz and Spidey

He is as strong as all the other Super Heroes

Birthday donuts for breakfast

I think its fair to say he liked them!

Even camdyn had some fun, even though she was left out of the donut eating.

Then off to his birthday party at Jump For Fun

Birthday cake and cupcakes!  I LOVE my cake lady!

Most of the party-goers.  I few are missing but it was lots of fun and Druz had a great time with all his friends!

The birthday boy!

This is one lucky kid!

He had some chores to finish up on since he didn't get to them this morning with his busy birthday plans.

This kid loved his bubble lawn mower!
