All The Firsts

Sutherlan had her first dance class Monday night. She absolutely loved it! She was so excited to start and was showing me all the dance moves she was going to be doing. She is taking Ballet/Tap and was very excited to try out her new tap shoes. After class, she told me all about it (parents aren't allowed to watch - we have to wait outside in the waiting room :0) She said everyone was tapping their feet when they weren't supposed to and she was listening to the teacher and got a "star" sticker on her hand for listening!! I was very proud of her. She will be going to dance class every Monday from 4:00 - 5:00. I think she is going to love it!



Sutherlan with some of her friends at the dance studio -- three beautiful ballerinas!

Sutherlan also started 4K this week! She has been anxiously awaiting school starting ever since Dylan started school. She was so excited Tuesday morning that she woke up at 7:15 and sat up in bed and said, "Is it morning yet?..Is it time to go to school?" She asked me every 5 minutes if it was time yet and begging me to take her to school. We ended up having to leave the house early and go sit in the parking lot and wait for 10:00. When I picked her up, she was very excited to tell everyone about her day. We called Kiki and Pops and Nana and Papa to tell them all about it.

Of course, I had to continue tradition with Sutherlan and have her pose in the driveway with her backpack. Here it is....



This morning was her second day and she slept in this morning....until 8:45. I woke up her to get ready, but she did ask if we could do like yesterday and go sit in the lot and wait. So, we ended up leaving around 9:40 (her school is RIGHT across the street) and sitting in the parking lot until 10:00. Today, she came home singing songs from school and showing Dylan the moves to the songs they learned. She said she LOVES school and can't wait to go back tomorrow :)!!

Dylan meets Yunel Escobar!

Last Saturday was baseball try-outs for Dylan. He will be moving up to the Minor League this year and we are so excited!! He has been fired up about baseball catching every Braves game on TV that he can. Brandon found out that Yunel Escobar was going to be signing autographs at a card show in Atlanta, so after try-outs they headed that way. Yunel is one of Dylan's favorite players and he couldn't wait to meet him!



Hopefully, we will hear from Dylan's coach in the next week, so there will be more to come with Fall Ball!! Until then....

First Day of School

Summer's over and it's back to the routine! We have been busy as usual, but enjoying getting back to some sort of routine again. Right before school started, we decided to take one last trip to Lane Packing with some friends and enjoy those last few days of freedom. It was a lot of fun and the kids really enjoyed playing on the playground and eating some ice cream.





Dylan decided he wanted to get his hair "Buzzed" before school. Brandon and I said it was his hair and if he really wanted to....Why Not? So, a few days before school started we took him to Great Clips and he definitely got his "BUZZ" cut.



Here is the result:



And for those who know me...I make Dylan stand out in the driveway EVERY year with his backpack and pose for the First Day of School! He looked so cute and so grown up all at the same time. My baby is no longer a baby anymore! He is turning into quite the handsome young man, if I do say so myself.

Here is the Webb tradition continuing.....



Kindergarten



First Grade



Second Grade



Third Grade

Dylan's First Day of Third Grade went great!! He loved his teacher, Mrs. Dant, and he thinks she is really nice. The only complaint he had was that he is going to have LOTS of homework for Third Grade! He's in the big leagues now!!! I think we are going to have a GREAT year!
