The kitchen junk drawer

My-oh-my! There are so many treasures in our kitchen junk drawer. Doesn't everyone have a junk drawer? Well we do-for sure! It is Sadie's new treasure box. She just loves to pull a stool up to the drawer, climb up on the stool and go through all the pretties. I love how grown-up she is looking in these pictures. She will play quietly (sometimes not a good thing) for 30 mins or so just going through the junk drawer. I can't believe she is almost 2!

4th of July 2010

We had a great time as always going down to Moroni for the 4th of July. I have been running lately (shocking, I know), so Kim and I ran the 5k fun run. Kim had a hurt knee, so I know she couldn't go as fast as she would have done, but we did it in 29:02, which was a personal best for me. I am really loving running and I might even say it's becoming addicting. I really look forward to my next work out! Here are some pictures from the 4th.

Connor's preschool graduation

Last night Connor had his preschool graduation from Miss Heidi's preschool. He has been so lucky to have two great teachers-Miss Heidi and Miss Marianne for the past two years. He has loved preschool, but is very excited to go to kindergarten in the fall. They had the graduation at one of our local libraries. The kids sang the cutest songs and put on a darling program. At the end when we were saying goodbye to Miss Heidi and Miss Marianne, I started to cry a little bit. These two ladies have loved Connor. They have been there 2 and 3 days a week for our family for the past two years. They celebrated holidays, birthdays, a new baby, and numerous other events that have been important to Connor. I will miss them!!! I joked that we needed to get together for lunch. Connor met a few really cute boys in his class that he has had playdates with. Connor is for sure our very social child. Hopefully he won't be too lonely without all his preschool friends over the summer.
