Aubree Graduates

Aubree graduated from preschool this week. She was very sad as she loved preschool, and especially loved Ms. Lesly. But, she is looking forward to finally going to kindergarten this fall, as are we!

I was happy to see that the other girls were apparently from amazon parents also, my child wasnt the tallest by a head as usual! But I do feel bad for the other pasty white girls next to Malibu Barbie.

They did a skit of "Little Red Hen" and Aubree was in her usual character, as a dog.



Here she is receiving her certificate of brilliance.



Aubree and Ms. Lesly



Karson was also very proud of Aubree and especially glad he was on track break and could come to the graduation.

Shaving the Cat

I'm sure most of you didn't realize that you could, or want to shave your cat. We have in the past 3 years had our big black cat shaved by a professional groomer. It helps with the shedding in the summer. This year, being the good savers of money that we are, Ryan decided to shave the cat himself.

I did have to help hold him, but as you can see he was pretty calm.
















And very happy.

















And a little embarrassed.

Boy Stuff

So I never had a brother so I never got to experience the "scouting" thing. Karson just started Cub Scouts last month and has loved it! But as a girl, I find it all a bit goofy. Shhh...don't tell Karson! (But, as I always say, he looks handsome!)

Now the animals are involved

Aubree has quite the imagination. She is often prancing about the house as pony or running on all fours as a dog, tiger, cat or whatever. And my new favorite sliding about blinking...Wall-E.
Dressing up as a character isn't necessary for her, but makes it all the better.
Her favorites are Batman and some sort of princess.
But now, she's involving her animals.


Here she is first realizing the delightment of how her furberry looks as batman.



Now she had to join in.


Now she has changed into a more suitable pink arrangement with her dog as a tiger.



Keep in mind these are within a 15 minute period.

New Cousin

Karson and Aubree are happy to welcome their newest cousin, Bryson Ramsey. He is my sister Lindsay's baby and was born on May 5. We can't wait to meet him in person!

She's a nut!

Riding a too small trike and wearing her swimming googles, is just too funny not to post!

Karson's Big Day

Karson was baptised on Saturday by his Grandpa Dan. He had lots of family there for his big day.
