Busy Boys

It has been a busy few days for our boys around here, my friends. 

On Thursday, my sweet oldest graduated Pre-K and we celebrated his special day by attending his ceremony with Nana, Pop and Uncle Tommy. 

C is such a performer and loved every second of singing songs on the alter. 

Friday, we attended the boys' school picnic and then spend the afternoon with Uncle Tommy and Ms Chelsie. Chelsie got birthday candles on Cullen's left over cake, but we were still excited to sing to her.

We also informed Tommy that if he big boy job doesn't work out, 'Manny' would be a good second option. 

Saturday, we spent the day with Nana and Pop: 

we shopped for summer clothes, went to Wegmann's, went to the playground, went on the slip n slide, watched lacrosse, played inside, and had an amazing dinner made by Nana. 

On Sunday morning, we met my roommate from college's son, and her Mom, who has been so important and special to me through my 20s, to say hi since they were in town for a wedding, My boys were so happy to make Baby Lee laugh, and to finally place a face to the wonderful women who has always been there for us. We loved seeing you Mrs H!

Later that morning, my friend Cate invited us to her pool. so of course we went and the boys had an absolute ball!

 Later that afternoon, everyone came back to our place for a BBQ and I was once again reminded to how grateful I am for my amazing high school friends who love us and my children.

Monday, we took a moment to remember the real reason for the long weekend.

 And then there was the rest of the day: 

Our sweet neighbor, who is the youngest of 3 boys came over to play with ours boys in the morning. I think he loves finally being in charge for once,  and my boys think he is just the greatest. 

Is there anything cooler to a 5 and almost 3 year old than a 10 year old boy who wants to hang with them?

Not much.

Except for Mr. Ant's pool with a basketball hoop-which we went to in the afternoon. 

And after an awesome dinner, we headed back home for an early night in for everyone. 

Busy boys indeed.
