Preschool Graduation!!!



















What an amazing year Baylee has had as a Jordan High Kinderbeet! She started preschool there back in September and last week she graduated from their preschool program. The last picture is of Baylee and all of her teachers, they really did a great job and she just loved them! At her graduation the kids put on a program for the parents and then they handed out their diplomas that they received in their cute little cap and gowns. I'm so proud of Baylee and of course I was super emotional with the last of my children out of preschool and such. I can't believe how fast she is growing up! Baylee is so smart and independent and full of never ending energy, she is going to thrive in Kindergarten. I love you my sweet baby girl, cheers to you!

Baylee's Tumbling Performance


















A week ago Baylee had her spring performance for her Tumbling/Gymnastic class and she did such a great job! She is so talented and is picking up so many new things it's just a thrill to watch her. She just learned round off backhand springs and is so close to doing them on her own! She is moving into a new class in a week and it will be so exciting to see what she does next.

Carson and Stripper Poles

So I had to write about the funny thing that happened to Carson on Saturday. He went to a friends birthday party who played on his soccer team. He had a great time ice blocking, watching a movie outdoors and eating Lot's of yummy food. He came home on a limo/party bus that drove all the kids home after the party. He told us his favorite part was playing on the two metal poles in the middle of the bus. Umm yeah are you thinking what I'm thinking, I should sterilize his hands. Warren and I looked at each other and started laughing, we explained to him that they were stripper poles. So now it makes a great story for him to tell people how he played on stripper poles. Not what I dreamt for my son but what can you do, JUST LAUGH!

Sandy City Spring Soccer

















So Carson had another successful year of soccer, he just amazes me. He is so talented and fun to watch I wish the season hadn't ended so soon. Carson mostly played forward which worked out great for the team because he scored in just about every game. I had many parents come up and tell me how skilled Carson is in soccer and that he should keep playing. I have actually been trying to talk him into signing up for competition soccer again but he won't budge because he wants to keep playing football too. I hope he changes his mind one day because I think he could really go somewhere in the sport of soccer. The last picture is of Carson and his second cousin who played against each other. They don't  know each other but his mom is my cousin Angie. Carson keep playing soccer you are so sweet to watch and I'm so proud to be your mom, love ya!!

Case Lot Sale

















What another fun exersion at Hill Air Force Base where we go case lot shopping. This is my third time going and as always I came home with a stock pile of goods. It was a nice, hot sunny day hence the umbrellas and a great time with my mother-in-law and sister-in-law Michelle! Two month old Jonah was with us too, such a sweetie. I really look forward to this twice a year so I can stock up on cereal, detergents, snack foods and more. Not only are the kids excited when I get home but Warren is beyond thrilled and as always telling me I should have bought more.

Mom's Graduation 2012























On Thursday May 3, 2012 we were so honored to witness my mom graduate from college! After four long years and many agonizing hours of homework, she did it. I am so proud of her and her accomplishments! It was so great to celebrate that day with all of my siblings and my grandparents and my mom's sister Cathy. My mom also requested that her grandchildren be there to witness her graduation and feel the importance of going to college. So as painful as it was for the kids to sit through the ceremony they did and then we all went out to dinner and celebrated. It was such a neat occasion and I know my mom really felt special and loved by all of us. My kids were so sweet and made homemade cards for her which she just loved. Congratulations Mom you Rock!! Love ya!!!

Brynlee's Second Grade Program

















On Wednessday Brynlee had her second grade program at school. Warren and I went and watched and it was such a sweet program. The kids sang so beautifully and the last two songs brought me to tears. Surprise, surprise I know that's all I do is cry. Brynlee has had such an amazing year in second grade I'm sad it's ending for her. The last picture is Brynlee with her teacher Mrs. Bingham. Brynlee has had one of the best years and has been so lucky to have Mrs. Bingham. She is the best teacher and she does so many things for her class that I know goes above and beyond. I love that her teacher takes lots of pictures and puts them on facebook for us parents. This is how I know what a great teacher she is because she documents everything the kids do and posts it for us to see. It's so great! Brynlee loves Mrs. Bingham so much that she made sure we got her a birthday present back in March. I'm such a proud mom!!
