"kay-gound"

Tyndale and I had a fun morning at the "kay-gound" today (sometimes "pay-gound")...We have several to choose from in Brookhaven, but we frequent the Exchange Club Park the most. Probably the oldest one, but what it lacks in fancy new playground gear...it makes up for with nostalgia...I mean...do yall remember these horses?? Who didn't grow up riding on these? Brad rode on these very ones!

....you can tell that he is having absolutely no fun at all...

...and THIS!! We call it the roundy-round, but do you remember these? They are so fun! I loved growing up in the 80's and I want to share a lot of the pop culture with our children. So playground? Check! Q and T have also watched Smurfs, Snorks, Jetsons, Dukes of Hazzard, and Jem..yes, really. Quinn has seen Goonies and all of the Star Wars movies. (And they actually hardly ever watch tv! promise!) But back to the roundy-round...are these against playground regulation now? :)

Quinn Martin Star Student!

Quinn was chosen as a Martin Star Student for the month of February. Martin Stars are chosen based on character traits such as kindness, honesty, helpfulness, friendliness, and so on. We had a reception where the principal, Mrs. Hobbs, read the kind things their teachers had written about them. Mrs. Moak had such wonderful things to say about Quinn...it was all very sweet! Gimmie was able to come enjoy the festivities.

Here is Mrs. Hobbs saying sweet things about Quinn...ummm yes...i do believe that is a blue mohawk-mullet we have here in the front row...

Tyndale behaved pretty well for most of the presentation...because he had his own jar of cashews...he LOVES those!!  We are so proud of you Quinn for all of your accomplishments at school! You are our star every day!!
