She's going to the First Grade and I'm going to see Mickey!

Amanda and I went to Kayla's school to watch her get her Kindergarten certificate (public schools don't do a graduation). Her class sang a few songs it was too cute. She looked just like Dusty standing up there, tall and skinny! After that Manda, me and Misty (her mom) took her to pizza hut and then just Manda and I took her to the park. She told Misty she needed some alone time with us, since we only get her every other weekend. Silly kid!



Amanda and I have been bustin it at the gym again, well I have been going all along, she just decided to join me again!!! I think I have a love/hate relationship with the gym, I feel great once I get there and feel even better when I'm done, it's the whole getting pumped to go is the problem... The thing is, my motivating BFF in Seattle thought that these great pants she bought me would be best one size smaller. So in order to NOT look like J-Lo in them I must slave at the gym! Thanks L-Dub!!!
I started school, I have class Tuesday and Wednesday 530 - 1030... YIPES! I just keep thinking only eight classes summer semester, not that bad, could be worse!
Brian and I are headed to DISNEYWORLD this weekend! We are meeting McKinley and her family down there... I am so excited to see her see Mickey. She has been so excited to go since Granny mentioned it months ago. However we aren't going with Granny this time, she better take this kid to Disney too!!! I will post tons of pics after!!!
Still haven't seen Indiana Jones :(

Brian is on swing shifts right now so it was just the girl (McKinley) and I on Friday. We did a little shopping at my home away from home...Walmart! We were browsing through the pet area and Kinley decided she needed some goldfish...Well we all know me that if she wants it, she gets it! So we got two goldfish, that I was sure would be dead from a heart attack before we even paid for them. Once she sat on the bag, dropped the bag, and beat the bag to death trying to talk to the fish! In the end they made it home and we named them Nathan and Hayley (cutest couple ever from One Tree Hill!)

Kayla had a Gymnastics meet on Saturday so Dusty, Amanda, Brian, McKinley and I took the two hour drive to watch her do her thang! She really is good! (Not just saying that cause she's my niece) She is suppose to try out for the competitive team this summer. She changes her mind every few days or so whether she will try out or not! She thinks she might want to do dance instead. McKinley also takes gymnastics so she thought she needed to show off a bit too!









We took the kids to the movies on Sat. night to see Horton Hears a Who. It was pretty cute, the kids liked it. There are so many movies out that I want to see right now, really I am just waiting for Indiana Jones to come out!!! Gotta love all these old men making action flicks again!!!
