Preschool Has it Priviledges

Elliott started his new preschool yesterday. We received his schedule of events for the month and WOW! this kid is busy. Today was Ice Cream Man day as is every Tuesday. $1.00 will buy you an ice cream and in his own words..."A Mess!" Other days include Thursday Music Days, Wednesday Science Day and Water Day but every other Friday is a very special day and Elliott can't wait. We had to purchase gear for this very special Day...BIKE DAY!!! He selected the Lighting McQueen sparkling cherry version. He thinks he is one cool dude!

Elliott's Newest Adventure...Sleep Walking?

Elliott has been sleeping in his toodler bed since before he was two. He is very good about announcing when he wakes up and has yet to sleep walk...we hope that does not change.

This morning at 5:30am I heard him say something...his door wide open but, I could not find him anywhere until I looked down. Yep...that is Elliott asleep under our bed.

Artsfest2008

Every year on the first Saturday and Sunday in May is a weekend of Art in Springfield called ArtsFest. It is always such a fun weekend whether rain (which more often than not), extreme heat, or every now and again you get two day that are just right...2008 happened to be just right.

We happen to find a pony just the perfect size for Elliott...he was in heaven.

Here is a picture of Poppy and Elliott enjoying the musical performance and some sunshine!

Best Buddies

This past weekend was spent enjoying good food at the 9th Annual Rock N Ribs Competition which is a Young family tradition. Matt's dad, Geno, competes every year AKA "Team Hogzilla." It is always a good time full of wonderful memories. This year was especially wonderful because Elliott got to spend some quality time with his friend, Sam, and Mommy got see her friend, Becka for a few moments. The boys truly enjoyed each others company as did the mommies!

We are trying...

No we are not trying to have another kid, we are trying to keep up with Aunt Hil. Here is our attempt to keep whomever up to date with what is going on with the Young's. We recentley received a new digital camera so soon we will be able to add some pictures to the site too.

For now, we will tell you we had a wonderful week. The highlight of our week is our sweet friend, Lupe, in Florida gave birth to her second child: Rachel. Mom and baby are both doing well as is her big brother, Raymond.
