Calvin's Graduation

They did not want to take one without Grammy!

I think that this is such a sweet picture.

Cutthroat Calvin

Last Friday I went with Calvin to his last field trip, we went on a pirate ship!

It was so cool! Calvin's pirate name was Cutthroat Calvin. They gave him a vest and sash and he got a painted tattoo and mustache! He choose yellow for the mustache, so you couldn't really see it, but his tattoo was a shark.

Learning how to be a pirate.

Sneaking on the boat.

They had to show their muscles to get on.

Looking for the treasure map.

Calvin wasn't too sure about the theme music, he thought it was scary. Silly boy.

The bad guy who stole the key to the treasure.

They got to shot water cannons!

The yellow mustache...

They got the treasure!

Scooping his loot!

It was so much fun. I rarely get to hang out with Calvin one on one anymore, so it was nice being just the two of us. I love my Sunshine.

New dress

I finished this dress just in time for Mother's Day. I love my boys!

I used this pattern. It was a lot easier than the last pattern, this dress only took me 3 days.

The "flounce" on the sleeve. I love it!

And I can't forget about the pockets. They are my favorite part!

The other night when I was cleaning the toys out of the tub it hit me: Calvin is going to be 5. I realized how fast Calvin and Harry are growing up. For a while I just stood there in disbelief and feeling a little upset about how fast these past 5 years have gone by. But, then I remembered that for the nesx few weeks Calvin is still 4. I thought to myself, tomorrow they are still little. Nick and I are so blessed to have these sweet boys spend eternity with. We are so thankful that they choose to come live with us. And we are thankful that for now, they are still little.
