BIKES
Really this picture needs it’s own post. Look at those kids and those bikes. I’m excited for this summer and I’m excited that my kids have actually wanted to ride their bikes!! We have turned a corner 🙂 They are adorable.
Month: June 2016
First Saturday of SUMMER and Memorial Day
Everything is exciting when school is out. The kids have been so giddy. The weather has been beautiful and we got off to a good summer start last weekend:
Saturday morning we had swim lessons and Cali had her first Coach Pitch Practice!
We went to Cali and Packer’s last soccer games and hung out at the house.
Tiago barely survived another Sunday: and Ray was just adorable 🙂
Benji getting annoyed by his younger sister 🙂
Monday morning we watched the Hot Air Balloons, ate donuts and tried to have a Memorial Day discussion:
I spent the morning fixing all of the KIDS BIKES!! while Ben got the other chores done:
Then we spent the afternoon at the PG pool!!
And at 4:30 we headed over to Grandma and Grandpa Nettesheim’s for a Barbecue! It was a perfect end to a great extended weekend. We always have fun with family.
Last Day of School
Goodbye to 5th grade with Mrs. Kunzler, 3rd grade with Miss Wessel, and 1st grade with Miss Myntti. It was a good school year. These kids are growing up.
last walk to school
We played and waited for them to get home since the last day of school is only an hour and a half long…
The Hancock’s came over to celebrate! Erica took the school kids to Pizza Pie Cafe!! and then we had a water gun fight 🙂
at 1:30 we had a neighborhood celebration out in the street! Let SUMMER VACATION begin!
Then we ran to swim lessons. And right after swim I dropped all of the kids off with Erica so that Ben and I and my mother and father in law could go to the new Provo City Center Temple!! It was beautiful and exciting. I loved it. We had Cazookies on the way home and Erica watched the kids for the night so we got to chill! Anyone that has at least one kid knows that sometimes it’s nice to not put anyone to bed – and it was NICE. Don’t worry that Erica is 9 months pregnant – I know, I owe her big time 🙂
Swim Lessons
We did the PG swim team fundraiser this year. The kids had swim lessons everyday at 4:00 during the last week of school.THEY LOVED IT. and now they are begging to go to the pool everyday. Benji, Packer and Cali are good swimmers. rose is so close, she can swim but she still scares herself and she’s SOO short that I make her stay close to me and the little kids. She and Ray and Millie rule the shallow part though. They are all comfortable in the water. Tiago likes the water too so we are set to hit the pool this summer.
The End of Soccer Season
Soccer is over. We are saying goodbye to the Red Racers, the Nachos, Orange Crush and Purps. Ben coached all 4 teams and he did a great job. The kids just love him. Cali played a game in the rain. It rained for the entire hour and never stopped!Cali and Mia and Henry had a blast this year.
Rose scored in all of her games this season 🙂 She hadn’t scored in the last game and it was her last chance so she went out there and chased that ball and kept at it until she got the GOAL!!!!!
The Nachos! Garner Meads, Noah Strong, Henry Chipman, Mia, Kara, Cali
Packer was on the Orange Crush. He didn’t get a goal this season but he had fun. I missed a lot of his games because of naps and weather 🙁
The other Nachos – Harrison and Cooper missed the first picture
Orange Crush: Luca, Zan, Josh, Jake, Packer, Carter, Mackai, Trevor
and Benji missed his last game because we were all sick 🙁 He had a good season though: Cannon, Austin, Holden, Brandt, Conor, Colby, Gabe, Kael, Abe, Haydn, and Jacob.
Now we will enjoy our 3 month break and then start up again 🙂
