Time to catch up with the Rowlands!!

Sorry I have not been good at updating this since February. It has been pretty crazy around here and not that school is out for the summer things will slow down a lot.

Mikaela has been enjoying her daycare and all the wonderful ladies that take care of her everyday. She is learning so much and really likes being around the other kids during the day.

Landon has finished 1st grade and now on to 2nd grade. He did great!! He started the year reading below 1st grade level and finished the year at a 3rd grade level. He made all A's for the year on his report card. Those were his goals for the year and he was successful on both.

My first year as a school counselor is now under my belt, not an easy year to say the least, but I did learn a ton and learned and I am pretty sensitive when it comes to my students. That has worked out for me for the most part but not always. I really LOVE what I do and think I have finally found what I want to do when I grow up. Grad classes for my masters degree are over half done...should be Master Rowland by the beginning of the 2011-2012 school year.

Mike has been busy with his sound company earning some extra money for us but gone most weekends working. Still working at the parole office but not really enjoying it.

The big news in our family is that we are all now ROWLANDS!!!! On May 27th we went to the judge to finalize the adoptions of both kids...we both adopted Mikaela and Mike adopted Landon!! It was a very exciting day for all of us.

Now time for some videos and pictures from the last 4 months.

Landon played T-Ball again this year...Mikaela, Mom and Mikey were his biggest fans. He had a GREAT year and next year will move up to baseball.
