Happy 3rd Birthday Violet!

Happy National Dog Day! And happy belated 3rd birthday to Violet.

Violet turned 3 years old last month. I have been meaning to take her official "milestone" photos and with many, many, many, many, many treats I called what I got success. Violet is all puppy, even at 3. In dog years she is legal to drink----but she's got enough craziness I am not about to serve her, her first beer :)


3 years.

Preschool Graduation-2015

Tonight was Preschool Graduation.

Are you ready world? Here comes the graduating class of 2028.

I sucked in my tears throughout the entire ceremony. Whew. 

This guy has spent 5 years at the most fantastic center with people that care about him and care about his future. 

There stood his class of 9 in their blue caps, holding their diplomas, ready for their next adventure. Harrison is going to miss the friends he made especially his besties Logan and Kyle. I am a little sad for him too---I know he will make new friends, but saying goodbyes are always hard.

This evening we were surprised with a memory book from Harrison's time at school. This will be an awesome reminder of the fun times he had during his preschool years!

I can not resist sharing his Preschool Thoughts on Life.

What do you want to be when you grow up? Police Officer.

How much money will you make? A lot.

Are you going to get married? No. 

How many kids are you going to have? No.

Where will you live? At mom's house.

What kind of car will you drive? Dad's car.

Whats the best thing about school? Playing with toys.

Alright buddy... Here you are as a Preschool graduate. Congratulations.

The end of Summer.

The last week of very cool temperatures, wind and rain is a reminder summer is almost over. Tonight we met Harrison's kindergarten teacher Mrs. May while having a popsicle and playing on he school playground with his soon to be new classmates.

Until Tuesday I am going to continue to stare at these photos and try to remember every single fun thing we did with his last summer home. These past 5 years went WAY, WAY too fast.

Tomorrow begins our last week's adventure of summertime. The laundry will not get done, the house will not get cleaned, emails will not be promptly answered, nor will photos be edited. This is my last week home with my buddy.
