Some Pics of June

  James graduated from Kindergarten.  He did great at his "Author's Tea."  We are so lucky to have Mrs. Kern as his teacher.  She taught all 4 of them!




Bruce graduated from Elementary School!  Here he is at the 4th grade party- it was awesome!

I have been doing lots of gardening.  Here is one of my flower beds:

Bruce, Kate, and James all played soccer.  James loves it!

For my birthday my mom made me this quilt.  We all love how soft it is!

On night at scouts they had their "rain gutter regatta."  Here is Bruce's boat:

I got to go to Darien Lake with Jane and her orchestra.  It was a fun day!

James' field trip to the farm:

Jane was in "Young Astronauts Club" and they did a few rocket launches after school.

Bruce loves Summer!  Here he is at the block party participating in the egg toss: 

Silly James got lots of tatoos.

Jane and her friends:

Now we are looking forward to all the fun things that will happen in July!

Kate Goes to Georgia...

to see this cute friend:

On Friday afternoon Kate and her mom flew to Atlanta Georgia! 

 Our friends picked us up from the airport and we drove around Atlanta.  We even ended up seeing the Botanical Gardens: 

Magnolia tree- these were everywhere and we HUGE! 

On Saturday morning Ellie got baptized:

 Her Nana made her this: 

 We ate lunch at Chick Fil A and then headed out to "Stone Mountain"

Kate got to rock climb:

 That evening we enjoyed BBQ from "Jim N' Nicks"  I still think about how good it was.... and then went swimming at the hotel.

On Sunday we went to church, played, ate lunch, and went on a walk in Magnolia groves:

 We LOVE our friends!

and this Bubba too:

April Pictures: Kirtland, Cincinnati, Healthy Kids Day and More...

On April 3rd we drove to Kirtland Ohio: 

 Then we kept driving south until we reached our friends in Cincinnati:

Kate was reunited with her friend~ 

On Saturday morning we colored Easter Eggs:

Then we went to the museum.  It was amazing:

 We made it back in time to watch conference and played a lot!!

The next morning we had a delicious Easter breakfast and of course the Easter Egg hunt:

 Thanks SOOO much friends- we love you and miss you! 

 My sister in OK told me about their YMCA Kids Health Day they were having so I looked to see if ours was having one too.  Turns out- they were. They played games, bounced around, got their faces painted,

 and even got to "put out fire" with the hose:

Thanks Lissa!

The Middle School here did a "Bald for Bucks" where they raised over $55,000 for cancer research.  It was a very fun and exciting event.  I got to donate 12 inches of hair to "Great Lengths."  Thanks to everyone who made a donation: 

Crazy Hair Day and Cake...

This week was full of lots of fun things! 

On Friday it was Crazy Hair Day at the Elementary School:

On Thursday it was the "Blue and Gold" and Bruce had to bring a "Cub Scout Cake:"

 Bruce got his things for "Webelos"

Also on Friday we threw Jane a surprise party!!!

 She wanted to have a party, but thought we'd do it in April.  She had her list of who to invite and what to do, we just did it a little earlier than she thought.  It was a HUGE surprise!

On Wednesday the kids got to meet the author- Eric Litwin who wrote the
"Pete the Cat" Books!
