Goodbye 308 N. Ivyhurst, and all our amazing Buffalo Friends

"Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for a while, leave footprints in our hearts, and we are never, ever the same."

We are going to miss all our Buffalo friends. Thanks for being our family since our family was to far to spend holidays and birthdays with.

The results are in

This little baby growing in my belly is a boy.

Kenzie

This girl is so fun to be around. When we took her to the Corning Museum of glass she kept us pretty entertained. My favorite 2 comments were:

"Mom can you lift me up and put in that(a huge gated off area) so I can brake those things"?

There was glass everywhere and one area was blocked off by a huge wall of glass then covered with a large fancy curtain. When Kenzie saw the curtain she got this excited look on her face and told us I think there is a dance studio back there. She then pushed back the curtain, in an attempt to walk into the dance studio. All I heard was a huge THONK then she came back from behind the curtain with a huge red mark on her head from running into the glass wall.

Bucket List

Last night we got the last thing crossed off my bucket list of things to do before leaving Buffalo. We took the kids to Canada to watch the firework show over the falls. It was everything I had hoped for:

Can't forget one last night of food and Bachelorette with the gals:

Weston's B-day

We had a blast celebrating Weston's 5th birthday with him:

Ooh Captain My Captain

Now that they have graduated Anthony and Scott had a ceremony to increase there rank. You are now looking at Captain Moeller & Captain Davis (formally known as second Lieutenant Moeller & second Lieutenant Davis).

Parker's Last Day of Pre-K

Parker had the most amazing teachers for Pre-K this past year. We were so sad to say goodbye to Ms. Courtnay and Ms. Barb on Parker's last day of school:

Here he is with one of his good friends Emma:

Ms. Barb sat at Parker's breakfast table everyday, he really enjoyed her:

The class acted out a book, and sang us some songs, it was adorable. I couldn't have been prouder, Parker said his part not once, not twice, but 3 times in front of all the kids, parents and family who came to watch. This is a huge accomplishment for my shy Parker. In this picture you can see his 2 best friends Owen & Emma.

The girls had fun decorating a cupcake to celebrate:

His teachers gave me the cutest poem ever:

We give you back your child, the same child you entrusted to our care last fall. We give him back pounds heavier, inches taller, months wiser, more responsible and more mature than he was then. Although he would have attained this in spite of us, it has been our happy privilege to watch his personality unfold day by day and marvel at each new achievement, each new success, each new expansion of self. We give him back reluctantly; for having spent 10 months together in the narrow confines of our crowded classroom we have grown close. We have become part of each other and shall always retain a little part of each other. We have lived, loved, laughed, played, studied, learned and enriched our lives together this year. We wish we could go on indefinitely, but give him back we must. Take care of him, for he is precious and one of a kind. Remember that we shall always be interested in your child and his destiny, wherever he goes, whatever he does, whoever he becomes. His joys and sorrows we will be happy to share. Please call on us if there is anything further we can ever do!
