Open House 2011

This year we were VERY VERY VERY blessed with magnificent teachers!
I cannot say enough good things about their teachers.
Bubba's teacher was an angel is disguise because she pushed, motivated, inspired him AND was great at communicating with us.I think she must have sons because she is a patien woman! It was great! I can only pray we will be this happy EVERY year.
I learn so much about each of the boys when I go to Open House each year. I love seeing what they have worked on in class when they are away from mom and dad. They are definitely one of a kind!
First up...Bubba's classroom since it was closest on the way in.


Tubbs really loved his teacher. During the school year he would ask us to bring her miscellaneous items. Someone in class broke some of her pencils, so he asked if we could buy her new pencils. His teacher really likes Diet Pepsi, so we bought her a six pack of Diet Pepsi. Tubbs was smitten!
Only 8 days of school left. We loved the teachers and the boys continued to make good friends, but Thank GOODNESS summer break is almost here.

That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....

So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
