It was so awesome...my son said "Mom...I didn't know you could dance???"

It was so cute them in their ties
and everyone just raved about how they looked & they were so well behaved :)
I am such a proud mom :)

and me with my boys apparently I was so tired I could not keep my eyes open (insert rolling eyes here)

we had so much fun :))) it was a great first

I am leaving tomorrow on my first flight away from my kids
to give my first ever powerpoint presentation for work in London Ontario
Firstly I am nervous :) excited :) a little worried about the boys :( but I know with my mom's help Doug will be absolutely fine and the boys will miss me but it will be a good experience for them as well.
All in all many firsts
