Starting Summer off Right!


Justin's graduation was his last day of daycare, but they were kind enough to do a
sheet for what Justin said about Jason for father's day!


Der took these at Athrun's birthday party!



Karen and Dean took the kids to Tweetsie on June 13th for the day
to see Thomas the Train!  They loved it!





On the chairlift!

















Hallie has had two weeks of YMCA summer camp and Justin has had one week of the squirt camp. 










Jason left for Montana on June 19th so we got tickets for the Crawdads
game on the 20th (then actually went back on the 21st!)




Justin rode an animal on the carousel for the first time!
Then he just kept switching animals to ride on!








The library on Saturday had a gem mining thing we did!





Sunday, we went with Mom, Karen and Miranda to Zootastic!
Justin didn't feed any animals but the girls loved it!





The baby giraffe!





White tiger!


Lions in the background!


Wagon ride where we fed animals to!



They had a little train Justin rode!



And another carousel!


We missed Jason while he was gone...but had many mama sleepovers (every night!)
and saw "Toy Story 4" with Nana and Papa!

Some pics from Jason on his trip to Montana-






Old faithful!

Fun events and Justin graduation

We were able to do our church's Service Sunday this year! 
We helped pack boxes of food! The kids really got into it!



Muffins with Mom selfie at Justin's daycare!
They had never had this before and since this is his last year,
I figured I would take advantage!


Here's what Justin said about me!


For mother's day weekend, Linda and Gary were keeping Sydney
so we headed up there on Saturday and spent the night!

Jason enjoyed the cuddles!



Hallie LOVED feeding her (in the high chair we used
for Hallie and Justin).






Hallie has now learned to drive the golf cart!





Our church had a 150 year anniversary and on Friday, May 17th
showed "The Princess Bride" on the front lawn at 8pm
It was the first time the kids saw it and though Justin made it to 9pm
but I think Hallie enjoyed it!
I can still quote 99% of the movie!


They had a wonderful lunch for the annivesary on Sunday!
My friend Abigail got a pic of us!



For memorial day weekend, Chris, Lesley and crew stayed in Deda's mountain
cabin and Charlie and his crew were there.  We went up both Saturday and Sunday!
It was neat to have all them together!






Jumping in the pool!





Justin loved this wooden train to play in!




Doing smores!








Playing in the creek!











When we came home on Saturday evening (dad had a ballgame to go to)
it was nice, but then out of nowhere came some rain!
They ended up riding their bikes in the rain!


One evening during the week I took them to the Zahra splashpad!
Justin go really close to the big bucket!




Justin's preschool graduation on Friday morning, June 7th!




Karen took this but I had noticed during the prayer he did this!


Kids doing the pledge!





Getting his diploma from Ms. Celia!



They had a little reception afterwards with a picture and 
small monkey graduate on the table.








They sang the cutest songs!

The assistant director told us at the reception that he didn't
do much during rehearsals, but when it was show time,
he really got into it!  He may be the performer!










On our way to Kindergarten!
