An exciting evening of fireworks

The start of our sumer trip to Utah

We arrived in Utah and the first thing the kids wanted to do was visit Narnia. Payton and Savannah were so excited to see their Grandparents and cousins. Payton wanted to try out all of the swings and was much braver this summer. Savannah had no problem climbing up into the clubhouse and jumping off with the rope. We had a great evening roasting hot dogs and marshmallows and visiting with each other.

Payton's Spring Kindergarten Program

I have to admit that I was a bit teary at Payton’s Spring Program and Graduation. It just felt like such a huge milestone to see my little guy graduate from Kindergarten. Every milestone in Payton’s life makes me appreciate having him even more. What a special day.

One of Payton's favorite things to do is to help his dad make "smoodies".

Easter Day

We told the kids the Easter Bunny would come while they were at Church since Mom had to work and wanted to see them with their baskets.

We decorated Easter Eggs with Payton’s friend and our neighbor Conrad and his mom Carly.
