Crazy May!

May was so busy....and crazy...and fun. The only way to document it is in collages. So, here goes......

mothers day 2010

It started with a great mothers' day! I love being a mother - and am so grateful for 5 unique and crazy kids. The kids and Brandon gave me a watch that I have been wanting....love it! (it was obviously sunny - check out my eyes and ava cowering in my shoulder from the brightness)

end of school

Lots of school programs, graduations, and saying goodbye to fabulous teachers. Kason graduated from sixth grade - now onto the big JR HIGH! He even played the graduation commencement song on the piano for their graduation. All of the kids did excellent in school - and had a wonderful year.

dance performances

Dance competitions/recitals galore! Jaicee and Halle both had a few each.

kids sports

Plenty of soccer, basketball, and baseball to last for a year. But we decided to do it in one month. Kason was playing soccer, baseball, and basketball; Braden played tball and soccer; Jaicee and Halle both played soccer.

halle party

We had 19 seven year olds over for a birthday party. It was lots of fun, but I don't think I will do quite that many again!

kids in may 2010

I happily attended Jaicee's fieldtrip to antelope island. Let's just say when the sign at the entrace flashes: "Bugs, Bugs, Bugs, and Biting Gnats" they are not kidding! My head was covered in gnats and I came home with bites all over my neck and head. At least it was memorable! The kids also went with Dad on a hiking/hunting/rhino adventure one night. Oh, and Halle graduated from "RAD Kids" at her school. If you don't know much about RAD Kids - look it up; I was extremely impressed on the curriculum! It teaches the kids all about strangers, bullies, how to get away from danger, and empowering kids to talk if they are ever threatened.

Whew....we survived May! It was questionable for a while....I think May is busier than December!

WOW, 19 kids? You are even more of a supermom than I thought (or maybe just crazier than I thought :) ). So glad to finally see a blog!!

Wow. You are a great mom. I couldn't handle all of those sports. I think I would go crazy.

You do realize it is now October right? May I suggest that on future posts, should there be any, maybe you shouldn't call attention to the month ;). Love you!!!
