Abigail's Adnoids

My sweet Abigail just plain old can't breathe.  Her nose is always stuffy and giving her grief. We took her to the Dr. and he recommended we get her adnoids removed.  She did so great during her surgery and also during recovery.  She never complained and I constantly had to tell her she needed to running around and rest.

 Almost time

 Right after surgery.  Grandma Sharla brought her a get well beanie boo.

She was such a trooper!

Las Vegas

We always go out to dinner for our birthdays.  Since we didn't want to miss out on Shelley's birthday, we decided to drive to Las Vegas and surprise her.  We drove to Mesquite Friday night, and Saturday morning, we drove to Vegas.  We shopped and ate lunch, shopped some more.  It poured on us the entire day.  That night we stayed at Brent and Shelley's, then drove home Sunday morning.  It was an awesome girls weekend!

 My Mom said that this was her first selfie :)

 Wally is just so adorable!

We were wet and a little chilled by the end of the day, but hanging out was so fun.  

So many good and funny memories!!!

Spring break 2016

 Here are just a few highlights from our Spring break this year.  We had a blast, and it always gets me excited to have the kids home for summer. 

 We went to a Layton park with the Jenkins cousins

 Most of the grandkids and my nephew Fisher from the Dawson side

 Isaac HATES when I put my hair in a bun or ponytail.  Like hates with a passion.  He cries and says, "put your hair down! put your hair down!"

 Ike has just started to get into trouble more frequently... like drawing on walls, putting stuff in water, and wasting all the lotion.

 We went to the aquarium in Salt Lake with the Dawson cousins and our neighbor, Jake.

 We had such a big crowd to keep track of in this crowded place!  Luckily, we didn't lose anyone for long.

 Most of the Dawson grandkids and Jake

Again...Isaac was super mad I had my hair up and kept grabbing it.

Hailey's Kindy 500 and Luke's wax museum

 Hailey's kindy 500 was so cute to watch!  All the kindergartners in their little cars waving wildly... they were all so happy and proud.

 Hailey and some neighborhood kids

Luke did a great job on his wax museum.  He loved reading up on John Stockton.  He's one of Ben's favorite players, so I think that's why Luke decided to portray him.  He rambled off his speech without any mishaps.  I'm so proud of him!

Luke's 11

 Luke is one amazing boy, we love having him around.  He's always happy, helpful, and Ike follows him around all day.  He loves scripture stories and reading any and all books.  Luke's has started to tend the kids while I run errands on occasion... I just can't believe I have a kid old enough and responsible enough to do that.

His choice for breakfast was German pancakes, and we had Grandparents over for his party later that night.  We took all the kids to go see Zootopia for his birthday surprise the next day. It was a fun couple of days celebrating this special boy!
