So I told you it would probably slow down after June 1, and it sort of did. I just haven't blogged for a while because we've been enjoying the sunshine finally. Addie had swimming lessons last week and did great. I'm so proud of her, she wasn't scared at all. She jumped off the diving board several times. I can tell her confidence level boosted. Now it's waaaay hot and I'm glad we have a nice pool facility down the street. The kids love it!

Addie got two of her favorite things for her birthday: clothes and music. She loves to sing and dance in her room.

After a lazy day at home we went to Chuck-a-rama for dinner. That counts for both birthdays for that price for dinner for 6.

She had a good day, but I think she is mostly excited for her baptism on Saturday.

I also want to say, I'm so proud of my kids for speaking in church on Sunday. Even though you could barely see Taggert's head over the pulpit, they all did awesome!

It's Monday, May 26 and Addie is 8 years old. I can't believe it! On the kids birthdays I don't make them do any chores and they get to pick what they want to eat for meals all day. Logan didn't think that was fair until he remembered the same goes for him on Friday.

So you can't tell, but by the end of the day he was holding her on his lap and giving her hugs and asking if she is having a good day. Aw, they really do love each other!

A big shout out to my sister, the best preschool teacher ever! Thanks for such a fun, and wonderful year with by little boys.

Drexton thinks he is a part of all this preschool graduation, even though he has attended class all year, he still has 3 more years left. What a cutie!

So as you can see, we all have had a busy week. I don't think it's slowing down until at least June 1.

So we took the preschool to Wild Wonders out in Genola for a field trip last week, and some cool animals. We're just wondering what this show is rated.

Sorry, you're going to have to turn your head on this one. I can't figure out how to rotate it. But we were so proud of Addie, she did a kata (form) for her second grade talent show. She was the only girl who did karate, and 2 boys who she said didn't look like they knew what they were doing.

All the kids have been taking karate from Grandpa for about 2 1/2 years and last Monday, Tag finally got his orange belt. He was barely 3 when he started.
