Tori's School Performance

Tori was a red candy cane in the performance. She did an amazing job with her speaking part in front of the whole room full of people.

Tori lost another tooth

She has 3 more that are loose. She got big bucks this time since its one of her BIG teeth.

Tori playing Soccer with Border Leauge

Tori is the ONLY white kid with blond hair on the field, so she is easy to pick out. Her team lost this game, but she did a great job.

Tori's new hair cut

Tori's school prog.

The PTO had an event with the 1st graders at Tori's school where they sung several songs for the parents. TOri was so shy and cute as a button.







































Hayden was getting tired of waiting for the whole thing to start and was fussing a bit.












Arwen was wanting to do a photo session while waiting to the event to start.

Tori's Kindergarten Graduation

Above is Tori with her teacher Ms. Stahl. She loves that teacher and so do we, sad that she will not be teaching 1st grade next year.

Its now Summer Break

Tori graduated from Kindergarten on Friday June 5, 2009. It was a very cute ceremony and they got little certificates with the date of graduation on them. We also got a cap and gown picture with her school information printed on it.

Arwen is also done with the fall term of her part day enrichment at the base CDC. We have her signed up to start back in August when Tori starts back to school in late August. They are both glad to be out of school for a while.

This summer is going to be a busy one for this family. We have two major trips planned for this summer. We are leaving June 18th to go up to Little Rock, AR to visit Brooke, Daniel and Tweek, then off to KY to visit our new friends Dylana, Jamison and Pepper, then after that off to NC to see grandma Keith who is sick, nana, & papa, and then off to another part of NC to visit meemaw, pawpaw, brother and his family and then we are taking the girls to Chimney Rock in NC for a fun thing. We will be heading home the south way through FL to visit Kim, Jim & SHelby and to see our house and the renter and see what all he has done. We are going to attempt to squeeze a lot of visits into a small amount of time!

Our secnd Trip will be at the end of July first part of August. I am off to th Stampin Up Convention again this year, so we are driving like we did last year up to UT, and will visit Greg's Sister and family and then off to ID to see his Brother and family.

We went the other day and got Tori and Arwen enrolled into soccar for this fall. They will start I think the first part of Septmeber. They are looking forward to playing as they love to play in the yard. They will be on seperate teams as Tori will fall into the other age group after July 25th before the practice and games start, so Greg and I may be spliting up the kids and going off to seperate games.

Tori lost her first tooth

She got a gold dollar coin from the tooth fairy. She lost her tooth while in the bath after I tried so hard to pull it since she stoped eating due to it hurting. It just would not come out for me, but while playing in the tub it poped out.

Her first tooth lost May 18th

Tori and Arwen being Funny

My little goof balls

First day of school

I finally got the roll of film developed and the cd back. I m bad about holding onto the film until I have a huge stack of rolls.

Tori had her first day of school August 25th. She was super excited about finally going to real school.

Tori got her ears pierced

We were at the mall today and went by Claire's to see what it cost since she has been asking for about a month to have it done. I also asked if there was someone else working so that they could do both at one time, ONLY because I figured if she had one done she would chicken out of getting the second done.

The girl said that the manager was also on the clock for today, so we picked out little gold balls for Tori and she got it done. She clinched her eyes for a second when they first punched through, but was fine after that. She was such a big girl!! She states that she will never take them out and LOVES her new ear rings.

We asked Arwen and at first she said yes, then no, then yes and finally she said no, no I will wait till I am 5 years old.
