It's the little things that mean the most.....

When I pray for these children my prayer is for them to have kind, loving hearts....this is our life...our journey...our Hardy Hearts....

First dance for Riggs

Sarah asked me about helping with a few middle school dances this year....and now I am the social co chair for the PTA...but she and I went with it and I think we pulled off a pretty fun dance for the kids!
The theme was Neon New Year....
We had neon doughnuts......
lots of glow...and neon decorations....
 and we had a count down to a new year at 9 pm...with a light up balloon drop ( or me being on top of the closed bleachers and shaking this bag of balloons on top of the kids...but whatever)  :) they loved it!

 They let us have the lights down and the kids danced and had a ball.....
 I did not bring Riggs and did not "bother" him at the dance....I stayed in the shadows and left him to just enjoy his first dance...I was so surprised when he came to find me and said..."finally....I have been looking for you forever...you are like a ghost!" ( my heart smiled.....I had mastered my plan to not bother him at his first dance....AND he came to look for me) Nailed it!
He wanted pics taken....that is why he was looking for me! Is he my boy or what?
I gladly obliged...

 He even wanted one with his girl.....
 It was a fun night and I am so glad I got to be there to experience his first dance!

Cheers to MIddle School!

Riggs had all his buddies over for one last big sleepover before school starts! They are so excited about middle school! They had a great time and we made root beer floats at midnight to celebrate! Cheers to Middle School!

North Registration

We headed to North for Registration this morning....
(and I kept thinking.....is this really happening?)
 Right away Riggs met up with friends........
 and we got our hands on the coveted schedule......
and the real work began....the comparing and hoping to have friends in his classes.......
lucky for him he has friends in every class but one...and per kids he knows he has nice teachers....
yhea!!!!!!!!!!!
 He took his yearbook picture......

 and found his locker and tried out his locked combination.....

 He is so excited.....nervous, yes...... but more excited to begin this new adventure!
 So we got our North car magnet.....stuck it on the only part of the truck it would stick too....and headed home happy and hopeful......
Middle school......here we come! Goodbye Gators....hello Mustangs!
