5th Grade Helper

 

Fifth grade teachers never need help from parents....the end of the year "MONSTER" project required some parent help....I was thrilled to be able to go help Hunter's class for a bit!  It was fun to see him in his element and watch his cute little self do his work.

 

Mother's Day Tea

Tyler had Mother's Day Tea today.  I was invited (with Dallin as well) to go hear him sing several patriotic songs (all memorized) and present me with a laminated picture of what he likes to do with me ("Go on walks...")  I loved it.  We got to see the baby chicks that they hatched in his class and he even got to hold one of them.  It was a fun little program.

Pretty darn easy to look at!

This was me snapping a shot of Travis moving the ramrod the other day at the shop....he was helping a buddy of his (Justin Bledsoe) put in a new tree at his house...it was windy and he was willing to help anyway....he's so stinking good looking!

Wrestling party at DartZone!

The kids got to go to DartZone last night for the end of season wrestling party!  They had a blast shooting nerf guns at their teammates and eating pizza.  Gwendalin even got to go.  Hunter got the "most improved wrestler" award , Dallin got the "natural instinct" award, and Tyler got an award for participating.  He was upset that he didn't get another award like Hunter and Dallin (who also got a participation award) - he didn't enjoy the sport as much as Dallin and Hunter did.   There was a giant hug after it was done with Coach Jerry!  He is an amazingly talented coach and the kids love him.

Best SaTuRDay !

Since we didn't have a wrestling tournament on Saturday we got the garage cleaned and then just took it easy the rest of the day.  Travis brought Jethro out to lay on the mattress we are getting rid of  and then he played Monopoly with Hunter and Jocilyn.  I loved every minute.

Dinosaur Day!

There was a dinosaur exhibit that came through town last weekend.  Travis heard the advertisement on the radio for it and he knew Tyler would LOVE it.  He loves dinosaurs and quotes facts about them all the time.  So, we bought tickets to go on Friday afternoon and since Travis was working I took Tyler and Dallin.  It was pretty neat, they had moving displays, sounds, and life sized replicas.  The boys were able to ride a T- Rex, play dino mini golf, and lots of other cool stuff.  It was amazing!

Best bagger EvER!

Dallin was with me at the store the other day  - and this particular store (Winco) requires you to bag your own groceries...he bagged all of mine for me ( there were 3  or 4 bags) he did a great job!
