A Storybook Island trip......

Right after school was out we spent a morning playing at Storybook Island......











Some Crazy....

We've had some crazy weather, some crazy hair and some crazy bowling in the last month!!









The start of our camping season......

First weekend out with the new camper was Memorial Day weekend.....it was a little chilly....but the kids still insisted on swimming.....thankfully the pool was heated.....so they just had to brave the chilly outside air!!




Calvary Christian Spring Concert.....

Ana and Eli were both apart of the spring concert at school this year. Eli was apart of the enrichment group since he stayed for enrichment each day when 1/2 day Kindergarten was done.

Kindergarten Graduation....

On the evening of Eli's last day of school they hold a graduation ceremony to show case much of what they learned through the year.





 Eli got a special award and t-shirt for running 40 miles at school this year during recess time....




Eli with his teacher....Mrs. Pierce

Finally I added a few videos of Eli's special night!!






Last day of school and Bike Safety Fun Day.....

I really enjoy looking back at how much the kids have grown from the first to the last day of school....

 






Ema's teacher has the kids all bring their bikes on the last day for some bike safety training and some fun bike ride time.


Adi always gets to be apart of the fun too!


 Hmmmm...something about this picture just doesn't seem so safe to me....Ema "LOOK WHERE YOU ARE GOING"......


 They ended their day with some fun play time on our jumping castles!!


Field Trip Week...

 Last week of school and it was full of field trips....


First up was Old McDonald's Farm...a glorified petting zoo....Ema and Adi were petrified of pretty much all the animals....
 

My girls would much rather swing, play on the playground and ride the train....
 



Next up was with Eli's class to Storybook Island....
 

Eli and his buddy Noah racing their horses.....
 



Spring Track and Field Day.....

The Spring track and field day was actually a really nice day this year! (You just never know what kind of weather you will get in May)....Ana and Eli both competed in running events and the softball throw.


Eric doing his best to keep Adi entertained.....

Everything is always easier with that tongue stuck out!!

May...no rest for the weary...

When we got back from Jamaica we literally hit the ground running and didn't stop for about 6 weeks. The first 7 days home was jammed packed.


First up was Awana awards ceremony.....


Never mind the terrible pictures.....



Soccer was up next...both Ema and Ana had soccer practice & games....


Then it was off to pick up our new camper....


And at the end of the first 7 days home...Eli and I were off to Denver for a quick Dr.'s appointment....


He LOVED his one on one time with me....and the Colorado Children's Hospital was pretty amazing....


They had 2 master Lego builders (yes, this is their full time job) working on a replica of the hospital out of Legos while we were there.


And Eli got to give Lego building a try....
