Summer's here (or would be if it'd stop raining and warm up!!!)

At the end of May Oakley started t-ball. He has a lot of fun but he doesn't understand the game yet. He's never sure where to throw the ball. This age is so fun to watch.

Last week Addi had her spring dance program. They did a dance to a song about Little Red Riding Hood. She looked so adorable and she loved her costume.

Waiting for the program to start.

Addi's the third one from the left. I recorded this at the dress rehearsal that morning. Addi seemed to forget some of the dance. She did a lot better at the program. It's so much fun to watch her and she really enjoys dance.

After the program with Oakley.

A while ago I started thinking it would be fun to do a cake decorating class with Lexi and Jensen. I didn't want to drive up to Provo every week so I set up a class at our house. I know a lady who teaches classes at Roberts' Craft and has a business decorating cakes and she agreed to teach the class. I also found some other women who wanted to take the class. This past week was our second class. We each picked a cake that we wanted to try to make.

Everyone hard at work.

Noelle and Stacy working on their cakes. We were all sick by the end of the night because we all kept eating the icing.

The girl's are on swim team again this year. They got moved up to the advanced team the first week. The only bad thing is that it is at 7:00 every morning Monday thru Friday. Way too early for summer. On Saturday was their first swim meet. It was freezing! How ridiculous that it was June 13 and everyone had jackets and sweatshirts on. Some of the swimmers even had sleeping bags they would climb into between events. I really hope it starts to warm up because I'm so sick of this weather!!! Rani and Jenn you would love it.

Lexi competed in the freestyle and the breaststroke.

Jensen competed in the freestyle and the backstroke.

May

The last week and a half of May were busy. First was Oakley's kindergarten graduation. At the first of the year I had signed up to help with it but only one other mother signed up from Oakley's class and none for the other two kindergarten classes. Somehow I ended being in charge of almost everything for all three classes. Luckily it all came together and the kids were adorable.

The week after kindergarten graduation Oakley lost his first tooth. He was really excited.

The same day that Oakley lost his tooth Lexi's class went on a field trip to Lagoon. I volunteered to drive and be a chaperon. We all had a lot of fun.

The Cliffhanger. It wasn't a very hot day and I didn't want to freeze by getting wet on this ride so I graciously offered to stay off and take picture.

The day after Lagoon was Addi's preschool graduation. She looked so cute!

A couple of times during the year Addi's teachers told me about a boy in her class that seemed to have a crush on Addi. He always saved a spot for her next to him and he had a special Valentine's just for her. His name was Tristen and Addi talked about him all the time. One day she even told me that Tristen had asked her if she would marry him. I tried to get them to stand together and so I could get a picture of them but neither one of them would cooperate. As you can see he wasn't very happy about getting his picture taken. I hope this isn't mean, but I hope he's not in her class next year, I mean she's way to young for a marriage proposal, right?!

The same day of preschool graduation was the award assembly at the girl's school. Jensen took first in the Science Fair. I was so proud because she'd worked so hard on her project.

Each teacher picks a boy and girl from their class to get the King and Queen of Narnia award. They are supposed to pick the kids who best represent the values that they try to teach at the school, accountability, responsibility, and respect. Lexi got the Queen of Narnia award for her class. I was so excited for her. She is growing up into such an awesome person.
