Easter time

So I wasn't the best at picture taking for this special holiday, and one of my FAVORITE...it was a wonderful service at FBC and then to BCC with Mimi and Gandy and Gene Gene for a yummy brunch. Sad, Gray was the ONLY one who would get in a picture with the bunny.....

Gray's SIX!

It is true...and I TRULY can't believe it Gray is 6! She and Copeland decided to double the fun at Rhodes Ferry Park, complete with baseball and face painting (thanks to big sister Mary B.) and most of Eastwood Kindergarten plus several other special friends!









On the real day Gray chose fudgesicles to share with her class and once she was done...she quickly ran to Mrs. Hand to ask when they were going to sing to her?!? I think after several birthday meals, her party, etc. we had sung to her at least 10 times. It's GREAT to love your birthday as much as buggie does!

Weather Makers

Kindergarten play time..I love it!


We have weather whether we like it or not was the whole theme of Buggies' play....she played a snowflake! Loved that not only did she do a great job with her 1line, she mouthed most everyone else's lines too....guess they did lots of practicing!












here is the snowflake with 2 of her friends raindrop and cloud.....

Spring Program at FBC

The girls have both worked hard on Wednesday nights in choir and missions. We recently had our Spring program and Gray's chior (led by one of our favorite people Mrs. Tommi Jo) sang 3 precious songs before the 1st-4th graders took the stage.



I was amazed at how much this group learned and how well they did telling the story of Naaman. Mary B's group were dancers and did outstanding!



I am so glad the girls get to be a part of this group who puts such fun and interest in learning more about the Bible and it's many stories!

our newest addition

Catherine Hester Wise.....now that she is 2 (and a few days) weeks old I am doing her post! Her cousins were SOOOOO excited to see her...I am pretty sure both Kindergarten at E-wood and most of 2nd grade at Ben Davis know about this precious angel. We have been praying and talking about both she and my sister (Aunt Leigh Ann) for a while.
We are ALL BESIDE ourselves she is here and healthy!!



Wish I knew what Mimi and the girls were saying here....diaper change time, Mimi always makes the BEST out of any situation!

Wetland's Edge with Gray

I am MORE than enjoying this Kindergarten year with Gray and was so glad I got to tag along with she and her precious class to Wetland's edge....

I do not think I have seen a cuter...and closer group than this!


They loved getting to see and hear about lots of animals...they had been studying about many of them before the trip and knew so many fun facts! I loved hearing each of them share what they had learned......




It wouldn't be right without a "Gray moment" to end the field trip....when the class was asked who wanted to try out the snake as a necklace...guess who volunteered??


I am going to miss her precious face at Eastwood next year....and can NOT believe her kindergarten year is coming to an end soon....but trying to enjoy EVERY minute we have together. LOVE you bug!

What has been going on........

Well LOTS and LOTS....so much I have been a major slacker on the blog, but before Spring gets into full swing I am going to get caught up!

At Ben Davis in January one of MB's favorite events comes around.......



This year was especially fun since she and one of her best friends Mere got to emcee the show! I loved hearing their "ad-libs" after each performance, they got to make up their own so it was pretty entertaining to hear what was going to be said.....


Here they are with their group who preformed the CUPID SHUFFLE and did a great job plus had lots of fun!



Tommi Jo was so sweet to come and support all the FBC kids, Mary Bradford was excited she was on the front row with us!



Over at Eastwood in February it was JUMP ROPE FOR HEART time and Gray got really good with the jumprope (and I LOVED IT!)>>>




The kids raise money for a great cause, get to come to a special party with ALL kinds of jump roping before school AND get fun prizes....it was early, but FUN!
