Stadium Day

May 20, 2016

Yearly Stadium day for our school.  I was the chaperone for Olivia's class and it was so fun to watch the kids have a fun time with their friends.


 Running relay races.  Olivia even ran in the grade level 50 meter dash.

Kaitlyn taking a little break.

 Partner relay races.  Kaitlyn also competed in the softball throw.

The weather was cooperative and we had such a fun and exhausting day!

Preschool Graduation

May 19, 2016

Alec graduated preschool!  He actually sang the songs and did all the actions!

Alec leading the class down.


A little unsure of when they called him up.


Happy they are done! 
 These two cousins!  What a pair!



Bubbles

May 17, 2016

Bubbles are so entertaining.  The kids would spend several afternoons outside blowing bubbles and having fun family time.





Mother's Day 2016

Alec had a Mother's Tea at his school where the kids sang to their moms.  Alec was a little too shy and didn't want to sing with the group, he would look up at me and smile though.  He was singing in his heart.  As I tried to get a picture with me and Alec, Devin wanted in on the action too.
 Love these kids that call me mom!
 Todd takes the kids to the store and they pick out several different types of flowers.  They then come home and they each make unique bouquets for me.  I get 5 custom made bouquets every Mother's Day!

Father/Son camping and Girl's Night

May 6, 2016
The kids have been begging to go camping and Alec is the first one to go.  The girls were so jealous!
It was the ward's Father/Son overnighter and Todd took Alec.  It was the night before his birthday and it was a fun gift for him.



While the boys were away, the older girls had some friends over for a girls night.



Book of Mormon treats

At the beginning of 2016 we started reading the Book of Mormon again as a family.  After we finished a book we would get some kind of reward as a family.  It was to be a little incentive to be better at reading together.  After 1 Nephi we went out for ice-cream.  



After a long time in 2 Nephi the kids picked dinner at IHOP.   




We combined some of the smaller books to grab dinner at Babes.
