School Buddies

Apparently, these two made a pact about sitting at the special visitors table in the lunchroom.  Vaughn had two special people come eat with him on two different days and picked Pierce both days.  I popped in for a surprise visit at the end of that week and he picked Vaughn too!

This year, Pierce seems to be friends with all of the kids in his class.  I know as kids get older, this gets more difficult.  For know, they all really love each other!  His buddy, Kamsi, made this "cool dude" for him to wear on their last day before Spring Break.  He was so proud!

Moss Rock

The weekend that our house went up for sale we had several showings and had to make ourself scarce!  That Sunday was so beautiful that we headed to Moss Rock Preserve to do some hiking...Maggie even got to come along.  You would think that Pierce was hiking to the top of Mt. Everest.  He wanted to take a picture at every stop we made!



So thankful for a warm, beautiful day...especially after the cold, cold winter we've had!

The Cheese

Pierce was invited to two birthday parties for classmates on back to back weekends at Chuck E Cheese earlier this month.  If you know me, I'm really not a big fan of CEC!  It's just mass chaos and craziness.  I had an open mind since the party was at the new one on 280 but it was just as crazy as I expected.  Despite my excitement, Pierce had a great time and loved seeing friends from school!  Can you tell he partied hard?!?!

 For the second CEC party, one sweet mom offered to pick up P and take him with their family.  I gladly said yes!  I think he had lots of fun tagging along with them and we enjoyed a quick date night dinner while they were gone!
Mr. Robbie even helped Pierce reach the pedals so he could race.

Big sis, Ellie, rode rides with him too!

Gold Star

Pierce came home with this Gold Star award earlier this month for the Kindergarten students.  I thought that they just took turns during the year giving it out, but apparently this was the first time this year that they had done it.  And, another friend said that her kids said it was a big deal to get this.  Who knew!?!?

Season Opener

Pierce was excited to kick off this baseball season for his first game.  He is on the White Sox team now (which his daddy isn't too excited about and will never wear any White Sox paraphanelia).  Nontheless, Pierce was most excited to have his name on the back of his jersey this time like the real players!
He has two buddies from his team last season on his team and one friend from church.  So far, they have turned about to be a pretty good little team. Go White Sox!

Around town...

At school, Pierce's class did a unit on buildings around town in Birmingham.  I think that many kids picked iconic and historic buildings around town to make.  What did my child choose you may ask?  This one...

....that's right.  Priorities people, priorities.
