Principal's List Donuts

Cole got all A's on his report card, so he got to go to the cafeteria and eat a donut to celebrate.

Tupelo

Cole and I went to Tupelo...we saw the house where Elvis was born and lived in until he was 3. It was a tiny 2 room house.
Front porch swing at the Presley residence...

After, we ate at Johnnie's...a place where Elvis used to eat!

Cub Scouts

Cole joined Cub Scouts! We go to weekly meetings and do activities...one week we worked on making a boat for the upcoming Rain Gutter Regatta. We are working on earning patches, belt loops and beads.


Cole is a Tiger Cub. I got a Tiger Cub t-shirt to wear to the meetings.

After the races were done, the leaders made 2 giant banana splits in the gutters for everyone to share!

BasCROWball

Cole likes to pull the scarecrows out of the yard, set them up on the driveway and hope they get blasted when someone makes a basket.

After School Fun

We like to go to Pet Smart to see the kitties and play with them. Cole wanted to take a book and read to them after school one day.

Cole's 7th Birthday

Cole couldn't wait to open his presents...

I made car cupcakes for him to pass out at lunchtime....

Cole and his buddy Zach

I decorated the car before I picked up Cole from school. I had balloons on his side of the car too, but they blew away on the way home. :( At least they made it TO school so he could see them and get excited! :)

Cole wanted to eat at IHOP for dinner. He remembered that they give ice cream sundaes to birthday kids!

I made Cole an SUV cake...

Car Lot Day!

Dan takes Cole to the car lot every Sunday. I went with them this week, but it was too hot for me, so I went back to the car. A few minutes later I look up and there they go flying around the parking lot in a golf cart! Then the next thing I know, Cole is driving!!!!!!

2 Things Freak Cole out. Strangers and ...

SUNFLOWERS! Every year we drive by the sunflower patch. Every other year I convince Cole to get his picture taken with the sunflowers. He is freaked out by them. (mostly because of all the bees that are around)

Cole took this one of me...

First Day of 1st Grade

BIG bubble bath!

VBS

You went to Vacation Bible School again this year. You and Tyler were in the same class again...and Ainsley was there! :) You really liked your teacher, Mrs. Millie. You had a good time! We went to lunch with friends after everyday. The last day we got ice cream too!

Museum Day With Friends

We went to the museum with some buddies for a kid program. After, we got to go through the museum and look at the art.
