Last days of school






I love the last days of school and so do the kids. They had spirit week and dressed up every day. On Monday they had the dance festival. They both did a great job.
On the last day, they stayed for an hour so we just took pictures. Lincoln loved his teacher Mrs. Williams. She is so nice and sweet and he had a great experience at school this year.
Lucy had her favorite teacher yet. Mrs Broadhead is the best! Lucy looked forward to going to school everyday. She raved about her. We are so sad she is moving to a different school.

Bear Lake work trip




Dan and I along with Mindy and Remi decided to take a work trip adults only to the Bear Lake House. We invited Jamie and Brad and Heidi and Ryan to come along so they could give us good reviews. It was a great and productive trip! We finished the big sign, hung up a few more pictures, the boys did a lot of yard work and hung up the swings. There was still a lot of time for play. We tried out our new hot tub, went out to eat, got a raspberry shake and Dan and I went and hit golf balls. We are so lucky that the clubhouse it just walking distance from our house. 
Our kids had a blast with Bobby and Haylie again. We are so grateful to them!

Mother’s Day






On Mother's Day, Lincoln and I were feeling so much better! But since we had the flu the day before, Lincoln and I stayed home from church. I was bummed to miss my kids singing to me in Sacrament. But they brought me home sweet gifts. 
We went and visited Kathy from afar. It was good to see Dave doing better. 
Then we went and said hi to my mom but didn't stay too long cuz I didn't want to get anyone sick. It was a good mother's day, I just wished I could've spent more time with my mom.
But I feel so lucky to have them and to be a mom myself to my awesome kiddos.

Our 12th anniversary



Dan went all out for our 12th Anniversary. He didn't tell me what was going to happen, but he said I had appointments at 12, 2:30 and a date at 6. Well....I woke up and caught the flu bug along with Millie and Lincoln. It was miserable. We felt so crappy. And I felt extra bad, cuz Dan had to reschedule everything. 

I was better the next day though and got to enjoy my appointments through the week. First I went to a Float Spa with an oxygen bar. It was very unique and relaxing. The next day I had a massage and facial. It was wonderful. 
The other things he had planned we haven't done yet. But he planned for me to go shopping at the riverwoods before we went out to eat at La Jolla Groves. Then after we were going to go to a salt cave. Instead to make up for everything, we've been going on lots of golf dates. He's so wonderful!

Jacks carnival and last day of school






Jack had a preschool carnival a few weeks before school got out. Miss Stacy puts so much work into this! There was a bouncy house, activity stations, a photo booth, treats and drinks and a table of prizes. I got to go and run the photo booth. It was so much fun for Jack (and for Millie). He ran around from place to place and at the end got to pick out 3 prizes. He had a blast!

The end of year program was so cute. Jack learned the states song and was so great at singing it. He had a smile on his face the whole time. He didn't catch on to all the actions or all the words, but he really enjoyed himself. Miss Stacy asked all the kids what they wanted to be when they grew up. Most of the kids said police man. When it was Jack's turn (near the end) he paused and said police man and everyone started to laugh. It was funny. I'm so impressed with all he's learned this year and can't wait to see what he accomplishes next year.
