The girls


Last night Courtney had her 8th grade graduation.  The kids vote on who they want to speak and they chose Mr. Conway who is a new teacher this year.  He did a great job!!  We had pizza and then the kids played scatterball in the gym and some watched a movie.  I think they all had a fun time.

Brandon had his prom on Sunday night.  We had storms forcasted for Saturday and so they postponed prom until Sunday.    After they walk through with their date they come back through doing crazy things, Brandon & his friend Casey came back through with mohawks.  He had a fun time and even was able to win a new TV at post prom which he was pretty excited about.

Courtney's 14th birthday



The kids didn't have school on Friday and so Bryan and his sister Sonya planned a surprise birthday for Courtney & Colton.  Bryan had half a day off and we had planned to go to Omaha and to a hotel with both families.  We told Courtney that she needed to pack clothes in case we decided to stay overnight with them.  We pulled up to the hotel and Courtney was still asking what we were doing.  We then told her that we were going to be staying here and celebrating her birthday, she was so excited!!  Kirk and Sonya, Vincent & Colton came and we swam for a long time.  Bryan and Kirk went to get KF*C for supper and also picked up a D*Q ice cream cake.  Everybody had a really fun time.  Courtney's birthday was on Easter Sunday and so we went out to eat and she picked Chinese.  The kids then went to Wal*mart and picked out gifts for her (a family tradition) and went home and opened them.
