May Happenings.... Part 3 - The Last Day of School

Here we are again! School's out and we are looking forward to the SUMMER! Caden did a great job in first grade with Mrs. Lowry. He read more books than I can count, the highest in his class. He made new friends and loved getting to go to music and PE this year.

Rylan and Coach Mackey - a very special teacher in Rylan's life!

Can you believe these three boys were in the same 3rd class this year...and the teacher survived!

Mrs. Mayo and Rylan....

She loves baseball as much as Rylan I think.

So, they got along great...

sneaking peaks of scores off the internet during class time!!!

Rylan had a good year in 3rd grade. He got his first chance at the TAKS test and did very well - a 95 on the Reading & a 100 on the Math! Way to go Rylan! He said good-bye to Woodland on this day. He will be at Coggin 4th grade campus next school year.

Nothing says school is out like this picture of Hudson!

Swimming at the Jacobs on the day school lets out has become our tradition! Let the fun begin!

May Happenings.... Part 2 -Field Day and Timothy's Day at Church

Rylan's last Field Day at Woodland! I think the best part of Field Day for him this year, was Coach Mackey letting him help her for two days before the event! Oh, he loved that!
















Rylan runs in the relay.

Hudson lays on the gym floor - 'how much longer?'

Hudsons tries out the jump sacks after one of the classes finish.

GO Caden, Go!

Mimi joined the boys for the field day events!

Our weekend concluded with the boys partcipaiting in Timothy Sunday at church. Rylan and Caden led a song and gave a speech. Way to go, boys!

May Happenings....Part 1 - Muffins With Mom

May started off with 'Muffins With Mom' at Hudson's school. As it turned out, Ryan's mom was in town...so she joined us & my mom was keeping my brother's children...so she was at preschool too! What a neat oppurtunity for us all to be together!

Is This ZOO Really Our Home?

One day recently, several of the boy's friends who live close 'showed' up at our house. I must admit I was surprised at so many showing up on the same day but loved it! That is one thing that never happened to us while living in the country! At one point, Caden just looked around and said, "Mom, is this zoo really our home?" Kids where playing basketball, riding bikes and playing in the backyard. They were all really behaving well and playing great together! I love when friends just drop by, unexpectedly...just something you learn to appreciate after being in the country where 'dropping by' wasn't to convenient!

The younger kids enjoyed bike riding while the older kids went for basketball and baseball.

The basketball game first....

Can Anyone Help Hudson?

Oh our youngest....continues to amaze us, puzzle us, send our heads spinning!

Of coarse, I say all that with lots of love! He definitely keeps us laughing and on our toes! On the way home from church, he is in his car seat just chatting away about who knows what. When we hear Caden say, "Hudson, did you just say you wanted a platypus?" Hudson replies with a big "YEP". "You know they don't do much. It can live in our backyard and swim in Grizzly's swimming pool. It could come in our house. It only makes a little noise." Ryan and I began laughing and asking him where he learned so much about a platypus. "I just know it" was his response. Ryan told him if he could find a platypus, he could have one...uh oh, for those of you who know Hudson...probably not the best thing to tell this determined child!
Our new family pet?




Since I'm posting about Hudson, I have one more story. Friday at preschool his class got to play a game of baseball. As I was walking down the hall towards his class, two teachers, not Hudson's, approached me telling me about his participation in the baseball game. From the information I received from them, I made the following list of things you could have heard our child saying during this game.

"You don't run with the bat. Put it down!"

"No, first base is that way. You're going to third."

"I am going to hit this ball out of the park."

"I throw fireball's when I pitch."

"Don't walk the bases...RUN."

Yes, we are speechless and concerned! :)

It's About That Time of the Year...

for BASEBALL! You know that means craziness for the Reagan family! But it is one of our favorite times of the year! We visited A&M over Spring Break and watched a couple of games. On Sunday, the boys ran the bases at Olsen Field and then we headed to Houston to see Ryan's sister. Here are some pics from the baseball game. Unfortunatley, by the time we got to Houston I couldn't find my camera (another reason I haven't been posting!)! However, over this past weekend I found my camera in the boys bag full of their PSP's, and other traveling gear! Sorry, Leeshie, I didn't get any photos with you!

Below I have a clip of the boys 'sawing off varsity's horns'. They weren't to sure about what was happening, as you can tell from their faces...but they'll learn!! (we hope :)
