Good Friday 6/24

These past couple weeks have been so crazy busy!!
With the end of the school year, came all the parties and celebrations along with it. SOOOO much fun!! The Kindergartners did their music program....so cute! There were awards assemblies. Both Bryce and Jaden were awarded the "Writing Achievement Award" for their class as well as a couple other awards (my boys LOVE to write!! The are always making books and wishing to get them published) The school had a fun End of School Year Party, complete with a DJ and raffle prizes. On the last day, we took the boys to John's Incredible Pizza Company where they rode some rides, played games, and won prizes. Whew!

We had a great Father's Day celebrating my amazing husband who is truly the most incredible dad! (though I spent the first part of the day meeting the amazing Wendy from Candy Hearts and her girls, along with Heidi, Chasiti, and Bonnie...will post on that later)

We just finished our first week of summer vacation. The sun came out (at least for one day).

I started an Anatomy & Physiology class (The greatest thing is that it is an online class so I can sit on my backyard swing and listen to the lecture! AND I don't have to go to a lab and endure the smell of cadavers!)

So here are a few pics of our GOOD things from the past TWO weeks....

My Sweetest Boy and his Amazing Daddy....


Bryce's best friend lives in the house around the corner. He and his brothers were over there playing, which drove our little dog crazy... until he found a loose board and was able to get to them. We soon found out that all the kids can fit through this small hole. Now the kids have a "secret passage" into each others' yard. too bad they are moving in a few week :-(

What good things has your week(s) brought??
