And just like that, it's over!! 5/27/2010

This month has been so busy, it is still a blur. All three kids have had SO many field trips, school activities, and after school activities, that the month just disappeared! It blows my mind to think that the last day of school has come and gone.
Report cards have been handed out, which means I now have a 1st grader, 4th grader, and a 5th grader.
What? Rewind that part!!
I have a 5th grade boy? When did this happen? Didn't I JUST go to his kindergarten graduation? Oh wait, that was Koda's graduation.
This is the EXACT reason that I am obsessed with taking pictures of everything that we do. It all goes by too fast!
Much. Too. Fast.


Jill had a great idea to have a welcome to summer vacation party. It was a BLAST! It was the perfect way to start our summer break.
Even though on the way to the party I had to threaten my kids' lives...so help me if you do not stop fighting I will drive right by Jill's house, and continue on home, where you will do chores for the rest of the day!
Even though Kate got sent to her room during the party for getting a little attitude with her mom.
Even though I had to break up a wresting match, that got a little too serious, between Koda and Jake.
Twice.
And even though all three of my kids are burnt to a crisp...especially Bailia, it was still an absolutely perfect day!
Like one of my favorite songs says...Every rose has its thorn. Would we really appreciate the good with out the bad? I think not.
The kids inhaled hot dogs (I think my kids ate an entire package by themselves), chips, and watermelon~notice the cute heart watermelon pops Jill made~DARLING! For dessert they all had more than their share of popsicles and fat boy ice cream sandwiches! The kids have such a great time together! I'm sure we will be spending all summer together!
I didn't get to bed until a little after midnight last night, then awoke at 4:45. But as the song goes~just like every night has its dawn. Thank goodness dawn is almost here! Even though I am going to be yawning all day long, I would rather have it daytime, than sitting here~ in the dead of the night~which is another line from one of my favorite songs, sung by one of the best 80's groups out there~name that band! I know, I am a total dweeb! I am okay with that!
















For my own records I wanted to write down the sweet post Jaden wrote on his blog about the following picture...Today we were playing a game called minute to win it. Me and kenna finally got a good picture after Kiersten and Kaylee stopped sticking their hands in our pictures. Kenna is my best friend because she is always nice, she tries to help me in what ever she can, she tries to make me laugh ,she cares about me, and we have so much fun together!
