A Big, Super Cool Announcement!!

Ok, some of you are probably wondering what my Big, Super Cool Announcement is. So let me tell you now......

No, I am not pregnant. :)

Here's the announcement part.....

David, was one of 2 1st graders (they picked 1 boy & 1 girl) that won the Hometown Heroes 2009 Coloring Contest, sponsored by the Piggly Wiggly grocery stores in Wisconsin. From what I understand, all the 1st graders in town entered in the contest. They had to draw a picture of a hero(es), on the back of a Piggly Wiggly brown paper grocery bag. David drew a picture of an army tank and a helicopter. He got a huge trophy, a $50 savings bond & a reuseable grocery bag full of junk food from Piggly Wiggly. We went to the dinner/ceremony last night, where David was given his award. His teacher, Mrs. Vian, was there with her husband. We sat with them & chatted & ate dinner together. It was a nice time. Below are some pictures of last night.

Nathaniel gives me a big kiss. Do you see that mischevious look in his eye?

David & his teacher, Mrs. Vian, and her husband. David is showing them how to play Big Game Hunter on Richard's phone.

David explaining his picture to everyone. He then walked around and showed people his picture. He is such a ham!

Here he is getting his $50 savings bond, which was promptly handed over to me.

David and the big, big trophy. Its at least 2 feet tall!

David and all his goodies. Sorry the picture is sideways. He got lots of not-good-for-you treats in that bag!
So that was my announcement. Sorry to disappoint some of you. :) I'm so proud of this boy, I'm about ready to burst. He was great!
