Swim Team

Addie and Brianna are participating in Swim Team again this year. They are doing great. They had their first meet last week and did fantastic. Brianna has come a long way this year, she had a little fear of the water but is now a lot more comfortable. Way to go girls!!!

A little R&R

Mike and I went to Las Vegas for a short business meeting. What a great time we had, seeing fellow AmFam agents and their spouses. We had the pleasure of hanging out with Ryan, Brooke and Cooper Heath. While the guys were in meetings Brooke, Cooper and I headed to the pool. Cooper who is only 5 months old was sporting the cutes swim suit and sunglasses to match. He loved the water even though it was a little cold. We also walked the strip saw the water show at the Bellagio, ate an amazing meal at the Cheesecake Factory, not to mention the dessert. Mike and I also went to see the Blue Man Group, what an amazing show. I didn't know you can make music with so many different things. What a great way to start out my birthday weekend. On Friday we headed to St. George, we meet up with Tami who brought 3 of her kids and my three girls for the weekend. We took the kids to the lake and what a blast they had. They loved jumping off the back of the boat the most. Mike and I participated in another Triathlon on Saturday, and we just about killed ourselves. We were both successful in finishing, but our times weren't all that great. Maybe had we trained it would have been a little easier. We enjoyed relaxing, shopping and a nice meal with Mikes parent and Tami and Ava. Thank you everyone for a wonderful birthday weekend.

End of year party

Addie is my social butterfly, and she thinks that she needs to have a party for everything. Which I love to party but when it came to having 23 12 year olds at my house for 3 hours I was a little nervous. Addie and her friend put together this Hawaiian themed party. They had bobbing for apples, Limbo, water balloon fight which actually turned into a full on water fight. Food lots of Food. Everyone seemed to have a great time. Is this what it is going to be like having teenagers???

FIELD DAY

Of course it is that time of year again, and that always brings Field Day. The kids always look forward to this and have such a great time. Rachael took 2nd place in the 50 yard dash against all the girls in the kindergarten. Her teacher said that she can beat most of the 6th graders (good now she can run from all the boys). Brianna did great also, her team was great in beating the boys at Tug of War.

Medieval Fair

Every year Cherryhill puts on a Medieval fair. All of the kids have to come up with a product to sell that has to do with that time period. Addie and couple of her friends had a Stained Glass store, which they sold Rock Candy, (it looked like colored Stained glass) they sold every bit of what they had (after we all had to sample everything) they were very creative. The school also had World Professional Jousters come and put on a show. Wow!!! They were amazing.
