School or no school

Let me start off with a HUGE, HEAVY siiiiigh!
arg. We have to take our 3yr old out of his pre K.
1. we can't afford it. Well we can, but we are trying to move and this extra $250/month would help a lot with extras.
2. I'm not a fan of the "principal" lady. I haven't been since the beginning.
3.This isn't WHY we have to but its a point. They are there until 12:30pm but I have been told by his teacher that after 10:30 they don't do educational things. They play outside, sing songs, arts & crafts. those sort of things.
I could def. teach him things at home. There is a school box store in town and I could go to good ol' walley world and get him "school books".
I just feel like a quitter. Like Im MAKING him quit.
He LOVES school! Which is a complete turn around from the first two weeks he started. I'd cry every morning on my way home b/c he was SCREAMING for me to come back and get him. They had to call me one day b/c he was histerical.
But school starts back in Aug. and he'll be attending a different school.
In Ga. The lottery system pays for a certain number of children to attend preschool (the one before kindergarten) and I signed Blake up MONTHS ago. He was around #50 on an acceptance list of 100 4 years old.
So he'll be going to a Ga funded preschool (just like a public school) I think its only a small fee a month.
So February will be no more school for my Blakie-Blake. *cries*

Monster Jam 2009!!










This was a BLAST! My 3yr old LOVED it. After it was all done, we headed home. Blake fell asleep in the car. The next morning he woke me up saying he wanted to go see Monster Jam again! lol Next year we are def. getting closer.

But we got to go to the pit party where we got to see the trucks up close. Blake got to sit in BULLdozers tire!! And he played in the sand piles with his monster truck he got there.

Every little boy should get to experience this!

Pictures

Im not too good at photography. I think I get more 'lucky' than anything. I know what I like but it probably isn't what a photographer would say is good photography.
But with the help of my mommy group members I am learning different things.
Its pretty neat to try different things out.
We have these TASKS to do weekly. Last weeks TASK was 'eyes'
Here is what I came up with:
Well, what do you think? Feel free to give me some advice or praise!
