Disney Land

We were so grateful to be able to get away to Disney Land in January.  We got to spend 5 whole days there which was awesome! We usually are there when the gates open, rush to all the rides we can and then stay as late as we can but because we had so any days we slept in, left when we were tired and saw a lot of the shows we normally pass up.

Baylor loved the Frozen show...especially when snowflakes fell from the ceiling.

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad was a hit with all the girls!

Baylor found the one door he couldn't shut ;)

This is one of my favorite pictures!

We got so worn out!

Apparently my other two girls are two old to take pictures with the princesses but Mallory still wanted a picture with Tiana.

Mallory's Kindergarten Graduation

And just like that Kindergarten was over.  My youngest girl is all graudated.  Of course Aly and Grandma came (and did double duty with the Red Riding Hood Play) and brought a candy lei!

Memorial Day

We love Memorial Day up at Bear Lake...except the weather's never warm...but at least there's the park and shakes at our favorite place!

Zoo Fieldtrip

The best thing about Kindergarten is the trip to the zoo. I was so lucky to be able to help and  hurry these cuties through all the exhibits!

Little Red

Tessa was super excited to get to be Little Red Riding Hood in her 2nd grade play.  It was a musical with lots of parts and songs. We immediately decided to not trim her hair and start growing it out so she could have braids...we focus on the most important things first ;)
She did a great job but skipped over one of the other students parts and made her cry. I could sympathize because I totally did that when I was Miss Louisa in our 5th grade production of Miss Louisa and the Outlaws.

Grandma LaDean and Aly even came down to watch.

We loved Tessa's teacher Mrs. Jackson.  She did so many amazing things with the kids during the year that took a lot of outside of class work for her. She even called me during lunch to tell me of an experience where Tessa stood up for someone else.

Fence and Fire Pit

 We finally got all the fence panels in and then started on the fire pit.

It took a lot of raking, compacting, and other steps but it will be fun addition to our backyard
