T-Ball

Ryan had a great start, rocky middle, and great ending to his first t-ball season!

Could there be a cuter ball player?! In fleece pants, in June....

                                              Ryan's best bud Wyatt

                                  Andrew and Kendall staying busy...

 Get low...get low get low....that song keeps replaying when I look at this picture...

 This picture goes back to Ryan REALLY not liking being the center of attention...he didn't want to get his trophy in front of the other players and parents, so Andrew got it for him....

 but then he was excited to hold it when no one was watching....  :)

 He is already asking for more t-ball! I would say that is a successful season!

Ryan's last day of PRESCHOOL!!

Ryan had a party to end the school year and got to read us a book he made titled "Me!" He was put on the spot though, and does NOT like to be the center of attention, so he clammed up and wouldn't read it out loud. To say that Ryan is ready for Kindergarten would be an understatement. He thrives on the routine of a day and loves to learn. He had a great teacher and by the end of the year, actually liked this school. 

Here we come Kindergarten!!!

May phone pictures

School fun and my date at Chipotle

 Demonstrating how NOT to pick your nose...

 CATERPILLARS galore!!

    I think both boys have grown (or at least I hope so!) Been finding this one like this quite often lately (between the screaming fits...)

 We have seriously gotten every penny out of our costumes in this house

                                                    STORY.OF.MY.LIFE

 Stickers from cousin Brian's daily monster drawings!

 Playing with (Taco)Coco...AnAn's kitty.

 This was cute and all to come out to see when I couldn't find him, except that he scratched my sunglasses in the console...ahh...kids...

 I once saw a sign on a girls back that said, don't judge my mom, I dressed myself....I might have to get one of those signs...Observation day at Gym Cubs-he starts Pre-team in a few weeks!

 Chris's parents gave us tickets to Dirty Dancing (and babysat!) Great show!

                        Julian's FIRST and LAST day at JHTC 1's. Who was that bald blondie?!

 I hadn't ever learned how to play chess, but Chris taught Ryan. So, naturally, Ryan taught me. Guess I should get used to it!

Let's get swimming!!

 Coco LOVES sleeping with these boys....

Michigan Trip

My grandpa had been very sick and had been in and out of the hospital for a few weeks before he went home to be with his Heavenly Father. It was a very sad few days in Michigan and my boys were kinda crazy from being told to stay still and be quiet for two days, but it was nice to be able to see everyone and celebrate his life. 

                             

                             Grandma and all but one grandchild (and four of her 21? greats..)

                                                                       Her five children

                                                    And their spouses

                                                        Dad and Sherri

                      Tracy, Dad and I, taken by my 9 year old cousin(hence the bottom-up shot!)

                                                         Grandma and her siblings

                                    Most of the girl cousins with Grandma

We stopped by to see Chris's cousin Sam and Abby and their new baby Iris. 

 Iris was fine with her Daddy Sam, but not with the baby whisperer Andrew...
