Last Full Day of School

Wednesday, May 30, 2012

What did we do today?

Our Elementary School held their annual 3k,

and we walked the whole thing, even Jacob! After

the first block, he was already asking when were we going

to be done. A few piggy back rides and meeting

up with his friend, Ashlyn, helped him make it to the end.

Kaylee and Emma had field day the rest of the school day.

A great way to kick off summer with lots of outside play!

Jacob, Emma, and Kaylee are ready to go!

 

After our 3k, Jacob and I rode bike and trailor to BYU.

 Jacob has been asking when we were going to make this trip. We finally pulled it off the last day that we could with just the two of us. I'm not sure we're ready to go this far as a family yet. Maybe we could...

Jacob thinks of BYU as a giant playground with chocolate milk.

Water, "tunnels", stairs, ramps, and lots of space to run around.

Heaven on earth for Jacob!

Picked up the Girls and headed straight to the dentist for check ups. No cavities! Yahoo!
We love our dentist! It's so nice that all my kids actually get excited to go. His office is fun, he takes good care of them and treats them nice, and his staff gives them cool balloons when they're done. 

After the dentist, we stopped at Hobby Lobby to get paper for Primary and a gift for a b-day party Emma was invited to and already late for. Dropped Emma off at that party, dropped the other two off at home, ran to the rental that I manage to change the filters, picked up Tyler from band, came home with just enough time to pull things together for our visits tonight, visited some amazing families in the ward, watched a little AFV with the family before the children went to bed, read a story with Jacob, and plopped myself down in front of the computer. Thanks to Brian for warming up dinner tonight and for taking care of things around here! 

I really am grateful for all that he does. He works hard every day to support our family, and when he gets home, he jumps right in to help wherever he can. Not only that, he's happy to do it.

Wow! Words can't say how grateful I am for him!
