Rodeo




Hanna was in a Rodeo for school, she made a horse out of an old sock with buttons for eyes. Each child got to pick an event, Hanna chose the buckin-bronco.

Tea Time



Malory had a great idea to have a tea party with some of her friends, she told Hanna that she could have one too. The girls got really excited and started planning the food and how the table should look. So we made peanut butter and banana sandwich's, homemade Oreo cookies, and strawberries. For the tea the girls got to pick out there favorite kool-aid. It was really fun, all the girls even did cheers at the table with there tea cups!

Mother's Day



My kids spoiled me yesterday for Mother's Day. I love the little gifts they make at school, they make me cry every year. Elliot wrote a book about "My mom is cool". My favorite part is I make the best snicker doodles, I've only made those once, but apparently they are the best. Hanna gave me a sweet poem about fingerprints and it has her hand print on it and her picture, that one made me cry. Malory made me a little pot painted like a watermelon, inside she planted a watermelon seed and colored a flower picture, on the back it says "Your one in a melon mom, thanks for helping me grow." I had a great mother's day, I'm so lucky to have a mom like mine, I've learned so much from her and still do everyday.

My Cub Scout



Elliot started scouts and its so weird, that I have a son old enough to do that. He has read his book every night and has already done 2 projects.

#9



Malory started playing soccer with her friend Macy, and Shandell is the coach. It has been really fun to watch her learn the game and play with the other kids. Malory has been pretty aggressive and has come so close to scoring a goal.
I have been the biggest slacker lately, I'm going to try to do better about keeping this blog updated. So here's whats been going on with us lately.

Sick Monkeys



So we have been home sick for 3 days now and I'm going a little stir crazy. It started Tuesday in the middle of the night with fevers, stomach aches, and headaches. Then yesterday my mom felt Malory's glands on her throat and they are huge so we went to the doctor and all 3 of my kids have strep. Today is a little bit better, still sleeping on the couch and watching movies all day. I hope they get better soon.
