Rebecca and Daniel's Fiesta Forever


We hosted a fabulous couples shower for Rebecca and Daniel at Virginia and Robbie's awesome new home.  We had a bunch of hostesses and a great turn-out.  We had it catered by Log Cabin, borrowed fiesta decorations from Minden, and had the cutest fiesta cookies ever. Great party for special people!


Virgina had everything decorated so cute!

We brought the cookies over from Shreveport.  So cute!

Sooooo all of this cuteness was out on the tables and it started to POUR!  Virginia put everything in the dryer and we reassembled the party about 15 minutes after it started. It was a blessing because it cooled it down a bit!


How cute is the happy couple?




SILs!

Henry's Grandparents' Day

Henry was thrilled to invite all 4 of his grandparents to school!  He was proud to show off his art work and his classroom.  I think Gammy, Granddad, Nana, and Pops were all proud, too!

They began the morning in an assembly in the auditorium with a speech from me :), cheerleader performance, and door prizes.  I was NERVOUS for my speech for some reason.  We started a new club called the Fairfield Grands for grandparents.  Woohoo!

All of the grandparents went to the classrooms and Henry was SO EXCITED to see everyone!  They had a little program in the classroom, went to the book fair, and then went to the cafeteria for pictures and refreshments.  What a great morning!

I snapped this one before I left to man my booth.

Mrs. F sent me this one!

Sweet Jacobe's grandmother was at her other grandchild's classroom so Gammy was his stand-in!  Jacobe was so happy he kissed and hugged Mom!

School Stuff

We had a big "spirit night" at Red River Brewing for a parent meet and greet.  GREAT IDEA!

DADS Club recess was a success.  I love this one that Henry's teacher took!

Grandparents day!  I LOVE THIS!

Mom had to be Jacobe's grandmother for a little while until his grandmother could arrive.  He was so excited to show her all of his work!

Tech vs. Miss State

We went over for the Tech vs. Mississippi State game.  What a fun time we had until Tech made a play to make them at 3rd and 93.  Something that made the entire stadium erupt in laughter!  Apparently that is not good.

We didn't take Sarah Kathryn out to the game with us.  She got to stay with Nana which was just fine for her.  It didn't stop her from wearing her cheerleader outfit!

This is so much fun!  Some older TKEs put these letters up so of course we had to get a picture!

Henry is Friend of the Week!

Being friend of the week is a BIG deal in Kindergarten.  Moms You get to do so many fun things throughout the week and you feel so special!  Most kids are friend of the week during their birthday week, but Henry won't be in school during his birthday week...she chose a week in September for him.  

The first day you get to bring home Paws, the class mascot.  You are supposed to take pictures with it all week and make a scrapbook page for the class book.  We had a blast with Paws!   You also get to bring a Show and Tell Item (he brought a Wii remote), surprise sack items for the class, invite someone for lunch, and you get a special prize from Mrs. F.


Paws comes home with his own bag of books to read to him and a blanket.


We saw 2 other friends from class and they were thrilled to see Paws!  All 3 of these cuties have brothers in Scouts.

Paws even plays Wii.

And slept with Henry

We took Paws for ice cream.

Paws even liked our real dog, Gloria.


Henry wanted Chick-Fil a for his special lunch so mom and I brought lunch for this sweet friend of the week!

So glad Gammy came!

You get to sleep on the loft during your friend of the week time.  Here he is showing Gammy.

Henry picked out stickers at Hobby Lobby to adorn his page!  I broke out my old scrapbooking skills for this beauty!

Oh yeah!

So cute!!!
