A package came today!

Probably the best thing about being a grandkid is when your Grandma sends you a package.Grandma Williams loves to send Parker all kinds of things.
This time, it was a big box of Lego candy that she found
at a candy store.

Last summer when Parker was visiting, she described Lego candy to Parker and he was intrigued by the concept. Her note said that she had been looking for some ever since his visit, and had finally gotten her hands on some.

Thanks, Grandma! It is delicious! And you can actually stack them, too.

Angela's Graduation

Angela graduated today- the last of the Hancock clan to finish high school. She spent her senior year taking classes at Peidmont Community College, though.

We all crowded into the middle school gymnasium to cheer her on amongst the rednecks of Madison County.

Presenting the class of 2009!

Congratulations, Angela! We love you!

Last Day of School/100th post!

It's the last day of 4th grade!

Can ya feel the excitement?

As the buses leave for the last time, the teachers (and this exuberant student) blow bubbles to send the kids off for the summer. They wave and cheer as the buses drive off.
It's really cute. Parker's writing assignment was to talk about what he's planning to do over the summer. It's about Grandma Williams' house, because apparently Parker "usually" goes to spend the summer with her and "Sabor."This is Parker's "weaving" that he worked on in Art class.
After school, Parker and I went to Coldstone to celebrate
the end of the year and all of his hard work.

Last, but not least, Blogspot informed me that this is our 100th post!

Male Bonding

Aaron, Adam, Isaac, Jeremy and Parker went camping at Pocohontas State Park (just a few minutes from our house) last weekend for some male bonding. Thanks for the new tent, Grandma Williams :)

Ah, some manly survival skills in action!

Adam, celebrating his 28th birthday a couple days early...

Chillin' by the fire with Grandpa in the early morning hours...

"Wait, if my marshmallow falls in the dirt, do I still have to eat it?"

Isaac cooked up some manly eggs for breakfast! You'll note Adam's feet are burned almost beyond recognition. This happened in a completely unrelated incident.
