splash pad fun!

Thursday morning my little preschool class that I taught two years ago had a little get together and invited my clan. We went to a local splash pad...It was free which made it even more fun. We all had fun even the big kids. We took out little friend Logan. We begged and begged for Mckenzie to let us take him.Finally Andrew talked her into it. Too bad she just won't let us keep him.






Looks like Caroline has more on her mind than shooting the water gun! (maybe a potty break!)

Time flies when you are having fun!!!

I can't believe it's been almost a month since I last blogged. It has been crazy busy the last couple of weeks. There are a few things I wanted to blog about so in no particular order. The last week of school we had Blake going to Holiday world, Andrew in cedars of Leb. for an overnight end of the year 6th grade party, Leah Beth's hawaiian 3rd grade bash and Caroline's swim and kindergarten graduation.

Wesley's 5th birthday party

Blake and Andrew invited around 20 youth from church over to have a swim and movie night.

Leah Beth and Caroline had their dance recitals. Leah Beth had 3 performances and Caroline had one. Plus all the dress rehearsals for the week made it a crazy week. Leah Beth's eye got scratched right before she went on stage for the first performance on Friday night. She was in a lot of pain. Thank goodness Sat. morning before Caroline's show she got some numbing drops and she performed perfect.






Steve's nephew Bryan got married in GA. The most exciting new of it all was Papa's had surgery the same week of all the other craziness. He did really well. I think he came home a little early and had a hard recovery but seems to be slowly getting his strength back. We are so glad. We love our Papa. He did look pretty skinny Sunday though. And last this girl hit her first home run on Saturday afternoon game. Yes in the 100 degree weather she played an awesome game. We were so excited. She has come so far from hitting the ball and running straight to 3rd base to now hitting home runs. I thought Blake and Andrew were going to run out on the field and carry her off. It was a great occasion for our family!!!
Although we have been busy the last couple of weeks we have been so blessed lately. Papa having a great surgery was the biggest blessing of all. How did we get so lucky to have such a good Daddy and Papa. As he suffers each trial with his sickness I get so worried every single time but I am so grateful that Heavenly Father knows we need him still. I tease that he's like a cat with nine lives and I am thankful for each day I still have him!
