Alex's Closing Program

It's finally here and thank goodness because we have been getting some spring fever. School is over and Alex had her Closing Program on the 5th. It was a very cute program. They sang a few songs and then recieved a certificate stating that they have completed a year of Kindergarten. Kindergarten lining up to sing
This is what Daddy and Joey do (with my camera) while I'm trying to take pictures of the show.

As most of you may know by now, Alex will be repeating Kindergarten next year. We squeezed her in early. According to public school standards, she should be in Kindergarten next year. As much as we loved Bishop McHugh Catholic Schools, she and Joey will be attending Middle Twp next year.

Weekend Camping Party

Our annual camping party weekend was last weekend. It was a great time. I have a blog specifically for the camping weekend. It is www.weekendcampingparty.blogspot.com. Most of the pictures from the camping party will be on that site but I wanted to post things specific to my family.
Outside of the party, we had a bit of an exciting weekend. Before the party on Saturday, A little boy almost drowned when Brodie's cousin Tracey Lee did CPR and saved the boys life. I didn't see it thank goodness but my children were at the pool at the time and Alex was very upset. She clung to me for the next half hour. I took no photos friday night so, I start with the party on Saturday.

We also had some excitement on Sunday as well. Brodie's brother Ed met some drunk guy and brought him back to our site. We all met him and thought he was a little odd. Anyway, they hang out with him at the lake and he smacks Tracey Lee's behind. Eddie (Brodie's nephew) shoves him and says (What the ...) and the guy punches him in the eye. Eddie bit his tongue so he ended up with a black eye and a bloody mouth. The guard broke it up and they went their seperate ways. Then, some of Brodie's cousins went after the guy. One of them got punched in the eye too but he needed stitches. The guy went to jail. Too much excitement for one weekend.
Chillin on Sunday Night
In the evening, we just hung out by the fire. It was nice.
