Happy Birthday America!

Happy Fourth of July everyone!  

It is a lazy one for us.  Here are the guys hanging at the pool during Disney theme day (btw cool boy soundtrack songs are clearly outnumbered by princess-y ones - something I never noticed before we had boys, or before we spent two hours listening to the pool lifeguards pump them through their speakers.  

 And here are our little patriots....I just LOVE them!  

Our own personal firecrackers that keep us busy non stop!

Happy 4th of July!

Johnny Patriot

Thursday Johnny's school had their annual 4th of July Parade and he was dressed to impress!

I love this picture, officially.

Because he is such a napper, they had to wake him up to even be a participant so he was less than excited in the beginning...but eventually he got into it (or maybe the popsicles just brought him out of his funk).

He is absolutely adorable and makes me smile.  

We had some good teacher interface during the parade too.   

His teacher told us that he was the best student in the class, and that she wished she had a classroom full of Johnnys!  Sounds like someone else we all know (Will).  

He is such a little cutie patootie that obviously saves all his misbehaving and shenanigans for us at home...slyly fooling everyone at his school!  I love it!

Noteworthy Napkins....THE END!

Wow, it has been way too long since I've posted!  Ok, I am catching up before our big vacation...so here we go!  The LAST FEW WEEKS OF NAPKINS!!!!

NEVER TO DO THEM AGAIN UNTIL JOHN IS IN KINDERGARTEN!!!

And yes, I'm quite happy about that ;)

Here are some napkins I drew up sometime in May HAHA!  I made some symbols of some Justice League/Avengers but folded them back up so Will would have to unfold them to see the whole thing...he thought that idea was pretty nifty!

Then Will requested Lego superheros so Billy was officially on the job for that!

I LOVE his Ironman :)  I think Will and Billy liked Spiderman the most.

 Then it was my turn again, of course Will didn't request anything easy to draw - instead requested...rabbits...whah?  He wanted a snowshoe hare, a jackrabbit, and a "bunny".  The only two you can probably recognize are Bugs Bunny and Thumper, from Bambi.

 For his LAST week of Kindergarten, Will requested LEGO movie characters...and I think these are Billy's best of the year...especially Emmit!

 So that is the end of the napkin chronicles...and this is what we have to show for it....

A GIANT stack of napkins that we drafted in the wee hours of the morning to give our little kindergartener a bit of love and sunshine in his lunch bag every day during school.  

He loved them.  

We loved making them.  

And we will probably keep them forever.

We will break open and add to the napkin chronicles in about 2 1/2 years for Johnny B!!!
