Weber's Cabin, We went up to Pinetop with the Webers to their cabin. We had a lot of fun and the weather was great!

Ellie in her big bed

Ellie has been climbing out of her crib, so we decided to put her in a big bed. We moved her downstairs into Maddy's room. She made the transition very easily. She looks so tiny in that big bed. Our baby is growing up so quickly.

Morgan and Madison had a dance recital. They did a great job. The girls have worked hard this year in their dance classes and it paid off for them. Morgan is finishing up her year of being on a competing dance team and has put many hours into dance. Madison took a jazz class and is has really improved in her dancing. Ellie loved watching the dancers. The boys were as patient as little brothers can be at a 2 and half hour recital. They were all rewarded at the end by Grandma, who brought them cookies from Paradise Bakery.

We had a barbecue on Memorial Day, we were also celebrating John's birthday. We had fun and went swimming in our newly filled up pool. The kids were as excited as John about his birthday present, a Wii. They have been having a blast playing it, especially Austin.

Filling up the pool

We emptied our pool on Friday

and started to fill it up on Saturday.

The kids had a lot of fun swimming
in the half filled pool.

Student of the Year

Morgan got an award on Wednesday for being student of the year for her class for citizenship. We are so proud of her. Sixth grade was a tough year for her, she had a lot more homework and was very busy with her dance team and mutual also. She was still able to get close to straight A's, which was tough in her class. She made a lot of good friends this year and really grew up as she turned twelve and will be starting Junior High in the fall. She is a great example to the rest of our family.
