Amazing Kids!

Megan graduated from Kindergarten
Parker finished third grade as an honor roll student.
We are very proud of our kids. They worked really hard in school this year and we were proud to attend their class award ceremonies. Megan had a graduation program and sang a bunch of cute songs including "Tiki Room" and "Ladybugs Picnic" before getting to walk across the stage and get her diploma. She has learned to read very well this year and we are proud of her. Parker had an award ceremony with the 3rd grade students. He received the honor roll award for having A's and B's all year. We are very proud of him and how hard he worked in school this year. He has also become quite the reader, since we introduced him to Harry Potter!

Brian and Parker hanging out at Corn Creek



We had a lot of fun over Memorial Day weekend. My mom and nephew Bailey came to visit and we did a lot of exiciting things together. Friday night we went to a Las Vegas 51's baseball game. The kids got to meet the mascot, Cosmo the alien, we got to see Megan visit the restroom at least 6 times, witness Colton's many escape attempts and the kids eating a lot of junk food, which then made a re-appearance later (at least in the case of Parker). At least the patriotic fireworks display was worth the wait....lol!
Saturday we went on a picnic with our good friends the Kelloggs and visited the Corn Creek nature preserve. It was really neat to see all the wildlife (we saw lots of lizards). It was a gorgeous day and we had a lot of fun.
Sunday we had a BBQ and lots of yummy food. We also played games and watched a movie.
Monday morning we went bowling. The kids had a blast and Grandma won. Monday night we had a fun BBQ and went swimming with our friends the Shauls. We were very sad to see the weekend end!!
