Horses

Our neighbors the Tanners invited our family over to ride horses. The girls thought this was great fun! Now the girls want a horse and they also want to take riding lessons. We had a great time and I got some great pictures!!

Nyah would go from the pony to the horse. She loved riding especially galloping

I think of all the kids Alyse loved it the most she did not want off and she had a permanent smile the entire time.

Even our niece Makayla that is here from California seemed to enjoy ridding the horses.

Princess Festival

We went to the Princess Festival again this year our friends Angie and Addison joined us. We had a great time. Nyah likes to pretend she is to big for these things but then she has so much fun once she gets there.

One of the girls favorite things this year was one of our most loved babysitters played the Queen of the night so the kids were supper excited to see her.

Then of course they loved the face painting. Anytime we go anywhere and there is face painting going on the girls have to get their faces painted. They all looked fabulous!

Miss Utah was there, the girls thought this was really neat to meet a real live princess. (A few days later they got to watch her on TV in a pageant that made it even more exciting that they got to meet her).

It was a fun afternoon spent with my ladies. I love you girls!

Marathon Man

Last winter Mikes bookkeeper Angie asked Mike if he would do the Utah Valley Marathon with her. He took the challenge. We all knew he could do it because lets face it he is not completely human. He trained hard all winter and spring for this day.

The girls and I were happy to be there to support our Guy. Our friends the Bagleys helped us cheer him in after they finished their half marathon!

We knew the time he wanted to finish in and sure enough there he was just like he had planed. He came running in with a smile on his face like it was nothing, soon tears filled my eyes I knew what an achievement this was in his life and I was so happy and proud to be able to be there to see him accomplish it.

I'm so proud of him he finish the 26.2 miles in 3 hours 47 minutes. Wow!!

I'm sure this was the first of many more to come because lets face it Mikes is competitive and he will have to beat his time.

Jared is one of Mikes running buddies. Of all of Mikes friends Jared is the only one that will go out running with him so Mike was happy to share this moment with him.

The Vacuum Monster

I love it when I get out the vacuum. It doesn't matter were the little girls are they come running in to were I am vacuuming and start running and screaming. This brings such joy to doing house work.

Kindergartner Graduation

Adelynn is a big Kindergartner Graduate. I just loved the program. The kids all sang their little harts out. There is actions to all the songs and the talking parts, oh to cute! Adelynn had a speaking part she said "Yeah we're never silly". I don't think they could have pick a better person to say that line.

We were so lucky to get Miss Robbins again, Nyah had her also. She is the best teacher. She truly loves her job and loves the kids. Once again she made a darling movie with pictures she has taken over the year and once again it made me cry. Adelynn loves Miss Robbins she is going to really miss her.

Dad and I couldn't be more proud of how big Adelynn has gotten this year. She has really amazed us this year. Her grades have blown us way and she loves to learn. I think her strong point is art. She loves to draw, color, and paint and her work really shows that.
