The tiger and the mustached man

After Peyton's track meet in Celina, we decided to check out the ballonfest there. We never did see any of the hotair balloons but the boys took advantage of the face painting. Preston chose a tiger face and Peyton went with the mustache and goatee.

Summer Track

This summer has been jam-packed with all sorts of adventures...most of them related to SUMMER TRACK. This was Peyton's second year to run. He finished up regionals last Saturday. He was bummed that he didn't qualify for state, but we were so proud of him. He long jumps and runs the 50M, 100M, 200M and the 400M. Track has been a great way to run off some that energy...not really!

1st Lost Tooth

It's happened! Peyton lost his first tooth last week. We had been to the dentist earlier that day for just a six month check-up and she mentioned that we needed to get it out of there...little did we know that dear old Mom would get the chance that night at dinner. He was very brave and didn't even freak when he saw the blood! The tooth fairy brought him a buck...I think he expected more, but we told him that they all add up. Only 19 more to go...

Baby Zebras love Peyton

All of the 1st graders at Wakefield took a trip to a cool place called Sharkarosa on Friday, April 18th. It's in Pilot Point, Texas of all places! We got to get up close with zebras, camels, and the sweetest baby kangaroos (or Joeys). The zebra in this pic with Peyton was only 2 days old! He was pretty skitish around the others, but seemed to love Peyton and I!!
