    That night the kids were all linvited to Ellie’s birthday party so we had an early cake eating with Ago. He was so excited to blow out his candles!

    And then on Wednesday his final gift from us came and we spent the afternoon putting it together:

    Rose loved Mrs. Jolley! She loved going to school to see her teacher and her friends. She took Kitty for Movie day. She was awarded the Math Certificate for her class. They had a special RED CARPET DAY and Rose fancied herself up and then the teacher gave them each a special award: FUTURE PRESIDENT! 🙂

        

    Cali loved Mrs. Moore! She had a great 3rd grade year. She was awarded the Kindness award for her Class!

      

    Packer also loved his teacher. He had breezy year with Mr.Campbell. He didn’t have any home work but he enjoyed school. He just did all of his projects by himself!

    I forgot to take pictures of Benji. He actually got a few brainy awards and an attendance award and… He got straight A’s and had a great 7th grade year. On the last day of school he and Ryan and some new friends rode their bikes to Macey’s and spent all of the money that they had found during lunch hour throughout the year 🙂

    That last week of school  – – – we finished the chore chart at home and I got in a few more basketball games in our Provo league.

    Cali and Benji went to watch the Pleasant Grove Boys soccer team win state! And Cali and Rose went to the RSL game!

     

    These 2 ran around outside constantly – this time at Cougar and Briggs’ house:

    Mr. Funny man – bored at graduation:

    Kickball with Dad! cause he wasn’t at soccer practice!

    And lots of Barbies and Dolls 🙂

    Bring on SUMMER!

    We had a pre-memorial day barbeque with the Robertsons on Saturday! We went to Joel and Megans and ate and played and ended up helping Joel get a few chores done that he had run out of time on. The kids love riding in the wheel barrel:

    A little spike ball and laziness and laughing at Millie tring to push and pull everything – – – and lots of cookies!

    And so good to have our movie room back:

    On Monday Ben worked on the garden and The girls and Kelsey and I shopped:

    And then that eveing we went to a BBQ at the Hancocks!

    Raymond wrapped up his Kindergarten days! He had a lot of fun with Mrs. Larsen. Reading has come pretty easy for him. Writing is a little harder. He was great at following directions and the teacher said she could always count on him. He loved making new friends.

     

    They had graduation on Tuesday:

    The Neighborhood kids beofre graduation. Ray, Noah, Era, Allie.

    Three of his buddies that were in his class: Cohen, Jackson, and Coy!

     

    His big sisters were so proud!

    And then field day on Wednesday: I love his and Coy’s matching smiles!

    Mother’s Day 2018

    No Comments

    These 7 goofy kids all call me mom! I am amazed at how fast they are growing up and I love seeing all of their personalities come to life. Being mom is a full time job and sometimes I cringe when I hear the word “mom”, (mostly when it’s the 99th time that hour) BUT I love the snuggles and kisses and laughter. I love that they just like to be near me and that they trust me completely. I hope I can keep that trust ad love always with each one of them.

    I got spoiled on mother’s Day – a nap after church and then crepes. I got cards and gifts and flowers. The kids played my new game with me and then we had Ben’s Mom and Dad over for dinner and a bunch of the other Nettesheims to celebrate Kris being the amazing mom that she is. I snuck a phone call to my Momma late that night and we called it a day.
