Fourth of July

TA DA!
  Our first flag cake.
 It took three of us to make it.  I hurt my right hand so Emma had to help make the cake part and Joey decorated it.  

It tasted great! 
Emma had to work at the theater that night, Thomas went to a friends party, Joey and dad put on a fireworks show for me. 

Swim camp

Thomas got the opportunity to go to swim camp at BYU.  He loved it.

Father's day

The tradition is broken.  We did not have  kabobs for mother's day, instead we had them for father's day.  Finally.... it's dad who likes them not mom.

5th grade promotion

Congratulation Joseph!
He is now a 6th grader.....a middle school-er... goodbye elementary school.

Celebrating with his friends.

Happy Birthday Calvin!!

Calvin is ONE !!

Cassie planned a great black and white party.

She had great black and white decorations, yummy food and.....

dipped strawberries.   Delicious!

He is a very sweet boy. He  just watched mommy open his presents.
We played a couple of games.  One was the first to say the joke ( a take off on a comedy routine that had lots of audience participation) the other was pictionary.

Happy Birthday to Calvin!!

Easter

We were able to stop by and see David, Cassie , Madison and Calvin.  Cassie was preparing for an Easter party.  Everything looked so great. 

Here are her cute cookie center pieces.

This is one of the peep topiary

We were a little early for the egg hunt so Madison wanted to take Grandpa on a flower hunt. 

She found some.

Calvin got a flower also.

They got to spend some time with Aunt Sarah.

Mowing

Oops, a little mowing accident
