Mason's 9th birthday

Who has two thumbs and is nine years old! This handsome dude!

Jeff and I were able to take Mason out for dinner for his birthday. Such a treat (I hope) to be able to go out with just Mom and Dad without any younger siblings there to interrupt our conversation.

Mason was able to have a few friend over for a party and got to go to Strike Zone.

I wonder if she is comfortable?

Cub Scout Day Camp

This is an event Mason looks forward to each year. I was able to go again this year. It was so HOT! I wasn't doing so hot when we got home. Pretty sure I had a case of heat exhaustion.

Tri-Cities trip- Columbia River Temple

 We went to the Ti-Cities for my step sister's daughter, Katelyn's baptism. We arrived a bit early to the building where the baptism was, which is right next to the Columbia River Temple. We walked around the grounds for a bit and tried to get some pictures of the kids together. As you can see, that didn't go so well, but it was great to spend some time as a family at on of the Lord's houses. What a beautiful house it is!

 

 

June Happenings

Lovin' the messy hair

Caught her sleeping in another funny position. This time at the foot of her bed.

 We are in trouble. She can almost open doors. Yikes! Time to start locking the bathroom door if I ever have a change of getting 2 minutes of quiet, uninterpreted time again.

 What do you do when you want your dad to come home ASAP? Make cookies for him then send him a pic with the caption, "Looks what's waiting for you at home".

 

Isn't she just the cutest? 

 This video was taken on June 23rd. Check out that cutie pie and her drool!

On our way to church. I am so thankful to have a place I can go each week to worship my Savior and to feel of God's love for me. I am thankful for the time I have each Sunday to slow down, enjoy my family, and have some quiet time to feel the promptings of the Spirit.

Last day of school

 Mason and Cooper were blessed to have two of the BEST teachers this past year. I don't know how anyone will compare next year. I am sad to see this year come to an end.

Cooper with his teacher, Mrs. Drouin (pronounced Drew-in)

On the last day of school they had a birthday party for the six kids who would be having birthdays over the summer.
