Clawson Family Reunion

My brother Gregg made the graphic above.  Thanks Gregg! To explain, my Grandmother's name is Olive and my grandpa's name was CB.  Do you get it?  

We just got back from a fantastic Clawson family reunion.  It was held at my grandma's house/land in Safford, AZ.  It was great to visit with all my aunts, uncles, and cousins.  We have a fantastic family. 

My sister did a great job telling about it on her blog.  Instead of doing my own, I will just re-post her post.  She does a better job than me anyway. 

Read about it HERE.

Preschool graduation

Emmie graduated from her first year of preschool.  I would be lying if I said I didn't shed a tear.  It was really cute. Emmie did not sing any of the songs but she did stay on her "spot" for which I was grateful.

This is Emmie's teacher Ms. Jody which she called Mister Jody ALL YEAR.  She was wonderful and although the picture doesn't show it, Emmie loved her. 

 

 This is Emmie's best buddy Kate.  They love each other most days.  Here they are showing off their awesome diplomas.  

This is a video from the program.  Just so you know, this song will get stuck in your head... maybe for days. 

 

ZOO

We drove over to Lincoln last week with our fun neighbors, Danell, Eric and Ruby, to go to the zoo.  The kids loved it! I love the Lincoln zoo because it is small, shaded, and you can get through in about an hour.  Perfect for little ones.Our good friends Brad and Emily met us there.  A good time was had. 

I need to mention that both of my kids pet the python. There was no fear.  They must have inherited Brenden's love of all things creepy and crawly.  I was far far away from that snake!
