Kindergarten Grad!

My baby is a kindergarten graduate! Yikes! She loves school so much that she cried the day after school because she wanted to go back and keep learning.

This is her friend Adam. They enjoy hanging out together.

Happy Birthday G & G Roundy!

My mom and Warren have the same birthday, May 13th. We had them over for BBQ steak & Brauts, corn on the cob, and some yummy oven roasted red potatoes (recipe from bil Brooks). They each wanted chocolate cake. My mom wanted chocolate cake with chocolate frosting and Warren wanted german chocolate.

Allie

The monday night Aggie died, our great friend "Aunt Becca" (as Tabi calls her) picked up a new puppy and was excited to have the kids help name her. We arranged for her to come to dinner Tuesday and bring her puppy. I knew everyone would be ok with it except Lizzie and they kids were happy to see her and decided that Mercedes Boots was a great name as she looks like she has tan boots on every foot. We call her Sadie. Rebecca said that Sadie had a brother and a sister still available if we wanted. Well....after some discussion and crying, we called the lady and found out that she still had a girl left. I made arrangements for Lizzie and I to go see her thursday after school. Lizzie decided that she was okay with it and so we arranged to pick up our new puppy on saturday after soccer. Meet our Doxle (a Beagle & Duchshund mix) Allie Hope (Hope, because Lizzie felt hope after loosing Aggie). Yes, I'm nuts!

This is Allie & Sadie playing. The get at least one play date a week when Rebecca comes for dinner. They love it. (sorry couldn't get the picture to turn)

Soccer

Justin & Tabi played soccer this spring. I coached Tabi's team. The team always played better when Caleb was there to help coach them. He is such a natural with the kids.

Tabi scored 3 goals one game. She is very aggressive and loves to play.

Justin one game scored 3 goals and when he played goalie he had some great saves. One parent asked me if he was going to play competition soccer this fall and if so would he play on this guy's team if he decides to put one together. Justin thought that was cool. Already being recruited.

Justin Won!

We have finally broken the Wagner Family curse! Justin came in 2nd in the pinewood derby this year. His car actually beat the other car twice but in the final race his car came in 2nd. We'll take it! Yea!

North Valley Youth Symphony

Caleb played with the Youth Symphony in May. He had to quickly learn the music for both the Jr. & Sr. Symphonies. He only had 3 practices before the concert. They were incredible to listen to. I am trying to convince him to play with them next year but he is worried about conflict time with HS sports. Lizzie is looking forward to playing with the Jr. Symphony. Doesn't the director, Mr. Dunn remind you of my dad (Tracy's). He even has the same mannerisms. Too weird!

Flat KK

My niece is in first grade and they read the book Flat Stanley. The kids colored pictures of themselves and mailed them to someone to have an adventure. KK sent her's to Lizzie. Flat KK got to go to school with Lizzie and hang out then Liz wrote about it and sent flat KK back. Cute idea.
