getting ready...

This has been a busy week in the Doffing Household. We have been getting ready for lots of events. The big one for Graham has been the Spring Fling at his school. He has talked about this for weeks. Apparently he has been practicing different dances during PE because once we got to the gym Friday night he instantly began to bust a move. It was so cute. He wasn't shy at all. I was very surprised that he just jumped right in and danced the night away. And by that I mean about an hour because once he started to sweat he was ready to go home.

This picture is kind of hard to see him but he had a "spotlight' dance to Eye of the Tiger. He showed it to me at home and he had the entire dance down perfectly. He takes his choreography very seriously.


I, on the other hand, have been getting ready for the big move to Singapore. On Saturday, the packers came and packed and wrapped up all of our things that we are taking with us. It was an all day affair. The days and weeks leading up to this day have been very stressful but the actual day was quite easy.
Graham spent the entire day with his football coach's family and the girls spent the day with the their bff, Ella. Having them with their friends made the day so much easier....so a big thank you the the Barnes and Crawfords for all your help!
The packers were very professional and handled everything wonderfully. So come Monday morning, the movers will bring the container that will store our things and be shipped by boat to Singapore. We are hoping that everything will arrive there just in time for our arrival in early June.


The girls, of course, have been getting ready to play and play and play. Life as an almost 4 yr old seems so good to me right now!

Bryce and Layne enjoy hanging out with all the other little kids at Graham's football games.








Here is Graham in his final huddle as an Allen Eagle! He LOVES football! I sure hope he can find something in Singapore that he loves just as much. He did tell me that if Singapore does not have football then he would settle for baseball. But come on, we are from Texas...football rules!

We are sure going to miss having playdates :( Don't know what we're going to do without y'all for three whole years!
