Reasons Why My Boyfriend is Better Than Yours

 ...like build block towers on my head to make him laugh.

And then let him knock them down over and over.

I thought I'd compile a list of reasons why my boyfriend is amazing.
 
#1- He looks cute even when he's dirty...

#2-But he cleans up really well, too.

 #3- Tom Cruise doesn't even look better in shades than this dude.  He can play the hero...

 #4- But he can play the pirate when needed as well.

#5-  He isn't afraid of anything.

#6- He's cute just like his dad.
 
 #7- He'll let a girl drive...no male chauvenism here.

#8- He'll even stop and ask for directions.
 

 #9- He takes me out on exciting dates.
 
 #10- He's got great taste in clothes.  (We're working on keeping them clean.)

 #11- He loves animals.

#12- He's not afraid to show his crafty, creative side.
 
#13- He loves the outdoors, especially throwing rocks into water.
 
#14- He takes meal times seriously and always compliments me on my cooking.

#15- And he's a fantastic dancer!  What more could a girl ask for?

I love you, Will!

Starting Summer Off Right

 A favorite summer activity around here was jumping on the tramp with the sprinklers underneath.

 No words needed.
 
This guy wasn't sure at first if he'd love it, but it didn't take long until he did.
 
He can really hold his own on the tramp with his sisters bouncing him crazily all over the place.  It's amazing he stays on his feet like he does.  He even catches some pretty good air at times, too!

When can we do this again is what he's thinking.

End of TK

 At the end of the year they had some fun things for parents to come see, like the Kindergarten classes performing at a school assembly.  They're practicing their songs here, complete with hand movements.

 They were pretending to be shocked by the line, "Missed me, missed me, now you've got to kiss me."  Sophie thought that part was hilarious.

 One of the last days of school was pajama day.  This is one of Sophie's favorite friends, Macy.

They built forts that Will was diggin'.

The entire school also put on a dance festival the last week.  The TK kids got to do a dance to "It's a Small World" with ribbons and it was really cute.  What a great first (unofficial) year of school!
