We are HALF, yes, half way through our summer vacation, which I can hardly comphrehend. Long are the days of a three month summer break for my kiddos. With baseball season consuming much of our time, I didn't want to pass on some important highlights we had this year. Taylor was nominated in to National Jr. Honor Society making straight A's for the entire year. What an accomplishment!! She will be the big 8th grader in the household this year....literally three weeks away.
I couldn't resist making a label.
My good friend Tiffany's daughter (Nico) graduated from high school. I racked my brain for a few weeks and decided to break out my rusty machine and quilted for the 1st time in TWO years. I also managed to rope Tishia and Amber in on the project. It worked out well that there were three of us to split up taking turns. By the time we had picked out the colors, cut and sewed it, we decided we all wanted it.
But, knew Nicolina would enjoy it in Provo. She was accepted into BYU this fall.
I instructed my husband to take the camera and document father and son's campout. This is about the best photo out of the 7 pictures he took. Apparently, they thought it was pretty funny. Dad's legs and Jared's head. Ha, ha, ha. The boys seemed to have a great time and no scary accidents other than a flat tire on the way home.
The week following was our end of the year festivities. Weston graduated from preschool.
He parted ways with Mrs.Carroll and his best buddy Jackson. Lookout Kindergarten!
Luke finished 1st grade with Ms. Djilas.
Jared is now officially done with 4th grade and Ms. Alcala's class.
My kids all were lucky to have such wonderful teachers.
Memorial Day weekend was spent at the cabin with Grandpa and Grandma Clouse.
The biggest hit was smores of course!
Monday Memorial Day we were invited for a kickball tournament with 5 other familes. It was quite the match up. Weston was our pitcher and surprisingly held his own.
I survived my 2nd year at Cubscout Day Camp. This was Jared's last year as a weeblo and will be attending the 11 year old scout camp next year. *sigh* This year we reached scortching temperatures well into the 100's. Thank goodness for plenty of water balloon fights.
After Jared's team won the Little League tournament, Weston kicked us off for the summer with flag football. He already has shown us he is serious when it comes to sports. He ran the entire length of the field for a touchdown at his 2nd game.
I guess there is a reason his nickname is Dash.
