Phil Mickelson*

We potentially have a future PGA Tour golfer in the family!

Cale sunk a 45 foot putt during his outing at the golf course with Grandpa.

Way to go, Buddy!

*I thought Phil was the better choice. ;)

Last day of Preschool

Today is Cale's last day of Preschool... Kindergarten, here he comes!!

We had a parent/teacher conference last week with Cale's Preschool teacher, Mrs. Reburn. We came away as very proud parents! Everything she said was great...and she had some wonderful keepsakes to take home for our school days scrapbook. It was so nice to hear such great things! Sometimes I worry - does he act this way at school?! Whew! The answer is no, he's pretty perfect, but really... I already knew that! ;)

So, I can't think of a better way to spend the afternoon of your last day of Preschool than with your Grandpa! Grandpa Olson is going to pick Cale up, and they're going to have Grandpa's delicious scrambled eggs for lunch. Then they're headed to the golf course to hit some balls on the range, and possibly play a few holes. I'm sure there will be some football and fishing stories somewhere in there, too. Hope the guys have a great day - Can't wait to hear all about it!

Since I missed the post about the first day of Preschool, here's the picture - So Proud of you, Cale!

Wow - look at these blondies!

Nice smile, Mar! :)

Fun!

Ryan and I made it out to celebrate a friend's 30th birthday in April. Great times with old friends!!


Tomorrow night we're going to St. Paul with a lot of Ryan's family to see Jason Aldean and Brooks & Dunn in concert. Excited for lots of fun!

Copy Cat

Last night, the kids and I were playing a friendly game of Zingo (fabulous game if you're looking for one). At one point, the competition gets heated and Cale gives Maren a little push....

Maren's reaction: "CALE! That is not necessary!!" - shouted as well as an almost 3 year-old can say, necessary. :)

Ryan and I look at each other and just laugh.

Friends

It's been awhile. Time gets away and I forget to write it down, but this one is too good. I wish I would have gotten the audio....to play back years later.

Last night, Cale was testing his limits - because he's so good at it! He ended up in his room for the night at about 6:45. Then, for the next hour and 15 minutes, we heard, "Mommy is not my friend. Daddy is my friend, and Maren is my friend but not Mommy. Naughty, naughty Mommy."

Then he made his declaration: "Mommy, I'm not going to be your friend until the 3rd Thursday!"

He apologized when it was time for bed. Kissed me goodnight and added a great hug. I'm not sure if we're friends again though! LOL! :)
