Done with 1st Grade!

It's that time of year with all the school programs and end of the year events with classes. Katelyn has loved her teacher this year. Mrs. Wilcox is super nice and sweet. She had surgery during the middle of the year and the kids missed her so bad and couldn't wait for her to get back. Katelyn has learned to read, do math and love school even more. She is such a little social butterfly and is always making new friends.
I was able to go into her class a couple times a month to help read with the kids. It was so fun to see the kids in a different atmosphere. Since Katelyn is my oldest, this is still a little new for me. She is definitly growing up whether I like it or not. Now she is on to Second Grade! Katelyn had two other kids from our ward/neighborhood in her class this year. Braelyn and Logan!

Preschool Graduation!

I can't believe that Henry will be going into Kindergarten next year. I'm actually looking really forward to it in a very selfish way =). I'm going to get a few hours with Just Haven while all the kids are in school, yipee!


Henry was excited for his preschool graduation, he had been learning and practicing his songs and skit and was ready to perform. He usually gets really shy whenever the spotlight is on him, but he actually did all his parts this time(not that we could hear him very well though).


These pictures are kind of in a random order, this one is of the kids releasing their balloons at the end. Some were not so eager to release them(Henry had to wait a few min before doing so). Henry and Ms. Amy. She is the best teacher and has been so good with my kids. Katelyn went to her and now Morgan will also go to her next year. We absolutely love Ms. Amy!
They did a little skit of 'The Three Little Pigs,' Henry got to be the man that sold things to the pigs.

This was the favorit song, 'Tutty Ta!' The kids were cracking up and loved shaking their booties!



Katelyns Softball!

Katelyn got to try playing softball this spring and she did pretty good at it. She is also still learning and we'll have to practice more with the kids to get them more used to it and swinging right. But she met a few new friends and had fun with it. She loved her cool trophy that she got at the end.

Henrys T-Ball!

Tonight was Henrys last game of tball for the season! We decided to try something new with Henry to see if he would enjoy it. He loves being with his friends and is still has a lot to learn. He almost took out his coach with his bat after he hit the ball(now when he goes up to hit we have to remind him to 'DROP' the bat after he hits). Poor coach fears for his life when Henry gets up!






American Fork Canyon!

Jason was supposed to be taking the kids up this canyon for a Father/kids campout this weekend so we wanted to go check it out beforehand. It was a nice day to hangout, climb on rocks, splash around in the water(thank goodness for rain boots), have a picnic and just relax. Henry was the only one that saw a deer on the way up. It is such a pretty canyon. The river was really high from all the rain we've had so they've decided to change the location of the campout(bummer, but great to be safe).
What kid wouldn't be happy with just throwing rocks in the water, they could've done this ALL day!






Our smiling Haven!

Haven has just been growing and learning to do new things all the time. She has discovered how to roll over from her back to her front(is learning to enjoy her tummy time more), is laughing and giggling all the time. She is one happy baby, that is when she is fed, changed and burped! I love this expression, she is so fun to watch and the kids love making her laugh and smile!
Haven at her 4 month checkup!



Jasons brother Stephen and his wife just had their first baby 3 weeks ago. Little Mason is such a cutie and so little compared to Haven. They are 4 months apart. We are so excited to have more little cousins the same age.



I love this little video of Haven cooing and giggling!




Camping out on the trampoline!

The kids were so excited to camp out on the trampoline with daddy! Our trampoline is not that big either, but they managed to all squish onto it somehow. Jasons head was on the springs as well as his feet on the other side. It was cute to see them all out there being big kids.
I woke up around 5:30am to find them all in the living room in their sleeping bags because it had rained. =)
