Down on the Farm- for a good cause

One of our friends is having open heart surgery. So we went to a fund raiser to help out the family. It was such a fun experience for my total 'city slickers' family!
 







Reunited with our favorite girls!

It's been a few years since we have seen these two girls, Leah and Reyanna- and oh how we have missed them! We had so much fun catching up with them, and the kids were just as excited to see them. They have been through so much and have had to rely on each other for everything. I love the strength of these two girls. I only hope I can raise my kids to be as courageous, brave, and smart as these two.  
 


So glad we can be back together with them, and as Leah pointed out, the Family sign in the back is just perfect for this picture<3 p="">


Last Day of School 2013

We had a great school year! Haylee finished up 3rd grade and was sad to leave Mrs. Davidson's class. She is such a fun, cute teacher. She and Claudia have been BFF's since they were 5. Where does the time go?
 

Evan came home with this cute picture on the last day of school. It melts my heart to see this. Love him!


We went to Kolson's new house to eat pizza and swim. The boys were crazy as always, but had a good time. Until- Cade decided to jump on a long board and skate down the street. He couldn't stop and ended up completely crashing. He tore up all of his toes, and had a bad gash on the side of his abdomen. We bandaged him all up, but he was pretty sore for about a week. I can't believe I forgot to get a picture! I'm sure he won't ever forget it though!!




Evan's Kindergarten Graduation!

3 Kinder graduations down! How does the time fly by so fast?? I am so happy for my sweet Evan. He had a great year with an amazing teacher who my kids have all loved, Mrs. Ghering. She is such an incredible teacher, I couldn't have asked for a better teacher to introduce my kids to school!
 





Kickin' off summer at the Condo!

Grandma and Grandpa Jenkins came out for Evan's Kindergarten graduation. They stayed in their condo, and we had 2 fun days of swimming, BBQing, and floating in the lazy river. Definitely a great way to start our summer!
 






Award in Physical Education

Way to go Cade! He received an award for Physical Education at Cadwallader. He broke the record for the fastest mile ever run in his grade- in the history of the school! So proud of him:)
 



Bilbray Field Day/ Family Picnic


It was so fun to help out with the Kindergarten field day this year. Evan had a blast with all of his friends, and Kendal fit right in with all of the kids as well. It was strange not to have Cade there for the family picnic this year though. I guess that is something I will just have to get used to as the kids get older and start going to different schools:(
