Last Day of School

Well it was finally time for the last day of school. The girls made out thank you cards for their teachers and gave them Starbucks gift cards.
I had to get one last picture of the backpacks. They held up pretty good this year.

Vegas

Brooke and Wayne with his cool guy glasses.

We went to see Cirque Du Soleil with Spencer and Lizeth. We had to wait to get our tickets.

We took a trip to Las Vegas with Mark's brothers and sister. It was a lot of fun. It was nice to be able to hang out without the kids (even though we missed them). Wayne was super fun with his cool glasses. We would have got there a little earlier if he didn't miss the turn (he had them on while driving at night). Man he makes me laugh! I rode the roller coaster that is outside of the New York New York. It was enough for me. Mark road several others and had a blast!

Leave it to Brent!

Jaime and I getting out of the heat at the Glacier Bar. Two thing Vegas is missing water that isn't $4 a bottle and benches.

Jaime and Brent

We stayed at the Luxor


Brent outside of the wax museum.

Our UFC guys. They felt a little silly taking the picture but they were good sports for me.

Again he just makes me laugh!

Memorial Day Weekend

We had such a fun time with Auntie's family at the cabin. We played guitar hero and played card games. We shopped at the little shops and we did a lot of relaxing.
Nick's friend Zach came up to hang with Nick. They were both a crack up.


Kaytlyn and Madison

Braden, Kayley, Adie, and Kensley

My 3 girls

Madison and Kayley

It was very cold for the end of May. It was nice to be able to use the hats and gloves.

Dessert Botanical Gardens

Kaytlyn and Ashin on the bus.
Here she was in the butterfly exhibit.

My little butterfly. She is such a good sport.

This was our group for the tour. It was really hot but the kids still had a lot of fun. They all had their own camera to take pictures. They had a list of dessert plants they were learning about and they made a scrapbook of all the pictures they took. What a special learning day!

Science Center




I was lucky enough to go with Kensley to the Science Center this year. She had so much fun. She loves to pose for the camera. Their shirts were so fun. Each class had a different color. Kensley was excited that her shirt just happened to be her favorite color!

Happy 7th Birthday Kensley!

The first party that we had was over at Janie's house. She got money to go pick out her gifts. So far she has bout cars, Lego Battles video game and scrapbook materials. She loves to play video games and craft. I guess she got both hobbies from Mark and I. She is so fun and full of energy. She is such a great kiddo.
I made her this cake for her Birthday. It was huge and delicious. She loved it and complimented me over and over.

Next she had her party with the Jarman side. She was so happy. She wanted the lego set the most and can't stop talking about how much she loves it. She also got another set from Aunt Mimi.
At school on her birthday she got her 7 balloons. I also came and brought her snacks to pass out for her classmates. She was so happy I could see it in her face.

And last she got her games from Mark and I. I sent Mark to the store and this is what he came home with. I think Dad picked out things he could play too lol. She was thrilled!






Mother's Day

The Friday before Mother's Day I went to Kensley's class at school for Mother's Day tea party. We had punch and cookies. The kids all made a craft. It was fun seeing her in her classroom. She is so shy at school. After I went to lunch with her in the cafeteria. She is so cute!

I am so lucky to have Mark! He makes Mother's Day a weekend instead of just a day. I get to pick what we do, eat, music we listen to. He really makes it all about me. I usually pick that we paint a room at our house for Mother's Day but this year we shopped and relaxed. I also got an hour and a half massage. What a great weekend.
We ate at Red Robin.
