We are like excited little kids over here when something green starts growing! We haven't killed anything yet! I do not have a green thumb, but we sure have had fun with our first mini garden. The kids help water it everyday and help me weed it too. They are so cute and almost as excited as mom when we see new things. We are attempting potatoes, tomatoes, corn, cucumbers, carrots, strawberries, watermelon, and on the other side of the house pumpkins. We will see what actually grows!!!
Cash's baptism. These cute cousins are only 2 months apart.
Afterwards we watched some of Emmery and Garrett's soccer games.
Miles the mule
Slide mastered. All day long!
Cutest soccer fan ever
The boys had a day off of school and wanted to go to the new NIKE store up here. They then proceeded to buy matching outfits with their own money. They are like twins:)
Couldn't leave the girl out
More from our pond adventures. We have named the turtle Michelangelo
Sunday night Croquet
Makayla and her friend doing the girl stuff. Good thing they live so close since they both are the only girls in their families.
How we get our vacuuming done
Followup ear appt. Passed his hearing test! Hopefully it is the last time we have to step foot in that office!
Getting our oil changed at the car dealership
Makayla's field trip to the Planetarium
Nate thought the tour guide was talking straight to him during this part of it and was answering accordingly. It was HILARIOUS. He would answer everything and had no idea what he was saying. It was too cute. He got everyone laughing several times.
Last school day outside party for preschool. Such a cute group!
Our almost daily walks around the duck pond
First signs of green!
Makayla gave a talk in primary and it was the first one she read all by herself. We had to practice a few of the big words, but she did great!
Nate's church twin who happens to live behind us:)
These brothers are so funny. Graham will tackle Nate and Nate just laughs and laughs. It is so cute!
Levi and I built his tool box for a belt loop for scouts. He earned his bear! That award will come hopefully next pack meeting!
Morning snuggles for Makayla and her doggy sister. Makayla goes to her when she feels left out, sad, and even hurst. She locks her in rooms with her so they can play. It is the cutest. Makes all the frustrating parts so worth it!!!
Boots and shorts and she does not see a problem with that at all. I have to pick my battles!
Toe heads, sunshine, and watermelon. SUMMER!
Fashion show and Makayla had to participate. It was super cute.
These are the funnest flowers. Don't last near long enough, but they are so pretty!
Levi received the citizenship award at school. We were so proud of that kid. He tries to do what is right at all times. He works so hard and deserved it! His teacher said, Levi not only is academically very high, but he does his best, stays on task, encourages others to, and is a good friend to everyone. We sure love our Levi! He is such a good kid!
Levi's soccer team had an awards/pizza party night. We played adults vs kids for awhile too. It was a fun night with our soccer family. Levi receive the "Offensive Player of the Year Award."
Makayla was so tired she put herself down for a nap while I was putting Nate down.
Levi had a Pioneer trek for the 4th grade. They went with the other campus and a mom sent me this picture. Levi was in Kindergarten and First Grade with those two boys. The next picture is Levi with some of his friends. They are a funny group of boys and pretty good kids too!
Playing at the park during soccer tryouts. Dad had school that week so we were flying solo for those nights!
These two are creative in their play! I love when they get along!
We finished the Book Of Mormon as a family and to celebrate we went and got snowcones. We started reading a verse a piece when Levi was 3 or 4. It was a big accomplishment doing just a little at a time with these wiggle warts. We were excited to celebrate!
I got my hair did and LOVE it. Cost too much, but it is fun! It took way too long and Dan ended up having to bring all 5 kids to the salon to sit at my feet for the last 20-30 minutes of my appt. Somehow they did great! Got a bunch of selfies to show it off!
She posted my hair on her social media account
Picking and eating our first strawberry!
Oh this girl. She came walking out all proud that she put my bra on all by herself:)
This handsome boy
Field day was a huge hit for the boys this year! A mom sent me this video of Levi doing the slip in slide. Wish I could have gone!
We mow lawn as a family most of the time. It is actually one of my favorite times. The boys are getting big enough to help with the push mow too.
Pool time! Probably our last year with this pool, but we have loved it so much we will probably get another!
Stud ready for church!
Helping with her baby brother
Testing out the pool!
Zack received his bobcat at pack meeting. I was with Levi at soccer tryouts. Dan was super dad and painted Zack's face while holding a baby. Zack has loved scouts and it is fun to see him get into it. He will be headed to day camp in a few weeks!
"Mom take a picture, I look SOOO funny with headgear and glasses!"
Library/park day before the rest of the kids get out of school and steal all the good books. We love summer and our freedom already!!! It is play time!!! And sleep in time!
