A Graduation, A Birthday, And Extras

I seem to be getting worse when it comes to keeping up with the blog. Since it is late I think I will go through all this quickly, I don't have any time to blog in the next few days! So here is how we have spent our time lately.

Missy had her baby shower a couple of weeks ago and the girls got to spend some time with their cousins.

Ash is the only one who can hold Chelsea for more than a minute without her crying!

We went to two ballet performances. This was Lily's performance which also happens to be the class Ash is signed up for in the fall.

Kaite graduated from Kindergarten.

Eli, Shae, and Kaite (these are her best friends).

Getting her "diploma"

Mrs. Nash and Mrs. Goebel with Kaite, they are wonderful teachers!

We inherited some plants after our neighbor passed away, our house looked like a jungle for a few days.

Ash's picture she took for her accelerated class at school. I think we are going to enter it into the fair this year, the colors are amazing!

We have been swimming and swimming some more. Kaite's first dive ever.

Both the girls got put in upper level classes Kaite is in the level 3 class. She has now learned how to swim at the bottom of the pool and spends tons of time down there, this makes me so nervous! Ash got bumped up to level 5, all they do is laps back and forth across the pool. She really picked up the breast stroke and is doing very well at it.

Ky had his birthday last week and we had some fun. He had some trolls decorate his car and fill it with balloons while he was in class!

I don't know who could have possibly done that! We had a fun evening, we went to Craigo's and ate. Kami ate a whole plate of olives, yuk!

They made Ky a monster cookie dessert. I creamed him! Mar wanted me to shove the whole thing in his face, but I was nicer than that.

Then we went and played mini-golf. The girls loved it. Kami never quite caught on but she loved to hit the ball and pick up any that were near her! That white blob is Kami.

Ash silly stringed Ky!

Kami helped him open presents.

Homemade german chocolate cake, it did not look good...but everyone said it tasted good.

We have also enjoyed the last day of school, field day, some shopping, riding the carousel, seeing Pirates 4, eating at Gator Jacks (yum), and a quick trip to Gene and Taylor's to pick up a table (down and back in one day). I picked up this table on KSL for a really good deal. I have been watching for tables for like a year and I have had a heck of a time finding a square table that is not counter height. This table seats 8 comfortably and I love it. I am planning on staining and distressing the chairs next week if the weather cooperates! Yes, those are our tomatoes and peppers still waiting for the weather to warm up so we can plant them outside.

Ky got to go see the bodies exhibit last week, I am so jealous but he promised to take me soon. Also, we both got a new calling. We are now in nursery with Kami for the first hour. I will really miss my Sunday school class. When they first put me in I was not looking forward to teaching 14 and 15 year olds but so far I think it was my favorite calling. I am sure going to miss those kids they were a hoot! I really enjoyed getting to know all of them better and hearing about all the drama in their lives!
I have spent the last couple of weeks with my nose in a book. I have read so many I can't count anymore. I branched out from my medical thriller/suspense themed books. These ones I have been reading have been easy reads but entertaining. I have been finishing one a day, when I have time to read. I think it is driving Ky crazy but then he is always at his drafting table! I caught Ash reading at 12:30 the other night and couldn't scold her because I have been up until 2am reading lately! At least I know where she gets it from!

I think that catches up the last few weeks. We have so much going on this summer I feel like it is mostly gone already. Ky is through his mid-terms and I am looking forward to him being done with this semester. I registered him for classes the other morning and I think next semester his schedule will be a little lighter.
