1st day of Pre K

Shopping for School supplies at wal-mart!
First day of Pre K at Arkansas Baptist School 2010
Tess went and sat at the table...she looked really nervous but was trying hard to be so big!

Tess's teacher Mrs. Doyle. She is so sweet!
Hutch and I kinda wonder around during the day...go to the park, play, wait on Tess to get out of school.....
We miss Tess so much during the days she is at school. Me and Hutch sit in the carpool line and chant...."we want Tess, we want Tess, we want Tess". Windows up of course.....

We were having a time in bean town

I knew the day I married Jay all of his dreams came true.........or so I thought...... After, a year of marriage I soon learned Jay had this list of historical ball parks he wanted to visit. Before we had kids we visited Wrigley Field in Chicago....Check. But, the most important one on the list was Fenway Park in Boston, MA. So, this summer all of his dreams came true. (i don't think Jay reads my blog anyway...so I can make it a little dramatic...right??) ok. agreed. We headed to Boston in June for a little getaway....and for Jay to attend the National Physical Therapy Conference. Follow along with the pics and Ill explain the rest.....
aweeeeee...isn't it just beautiful? Fenway Park
we actually sat in on batting practice in "THE GREEN MONSTER"

We toured around the city on a bus tour that was hop on and off for two days. This was a very efficient way of traveling the city, learning the culture and an awesome way for us to do our own thing too. We went all over Boston and Cambridge.

Cruising the Boston Harbor....GORGEOUS!

taking my own pic....ha! Check out that old road and buildings...very European.
When on vaca we always ask locals where the dives are they eat at....can I say YUM! Best pizza ever! You must visit this place when in Boston (the original restaurant)..
Pic time on the Bus.
Paul Revere's House
Boston Harbor
We thought of somebody....couldn't find "Hutch" name anywhere. :( The kids stayed with Jay's parents...who always take great care of them.
This is where we stayed on Newberry Street. Super cute boutique hotel in the perfect location.

This is the life...






so the other day I was watching Oprah with Barbra Bush on. Her daughters talked about how neat it was to read their mom's book and gain insight to her as a person and not just a mom. I hope that one day my kids will read this blog and maybe just maybe feel the same way.

Just some random thoughts I have today to Tess and Hutch:
Tess- When it comes to letting people into your life...remember to choose friends that Inspire you! Friends that make you want to improve in various areas of your life-maybe some areas that you really aren't even that great at. Have creative friends, really smart friends, athletic friends, goofy friends, self-confident friends, dorky friends, talented friends..... Watch out for friends that want to be just like you or friends that look down on others......

Hutch- Me and your dad want to teach you what it means to be "meek".. Meekness is strengh under control. Meekness is not weakness. Your daddy is the perfect example of a meek man. "Blessed are the Meek, for they will inherit the earth" Matthew 5:5
