Summer Begins

Summer break has officially began now that Kade finished the first grade with flying colors! He was very sad to have school end because he absolutely loved his teacher, Mrs. Tapia. Kade and his good friend, Noah, both came out of school in tears. I felt so bad. Guess its a good thing he had a teacher that he didn't want to leave. :) So now i officially have a second grader! I can't believe Kade is getting so big. Makes me sad to see my little man growing up but at the same time he makes me proud every day. He received awards for outstanding attendance and being such an awesome helper in class.



Kades last day of school ended at 12:30 and so we decided to celebrate by going to the zoo! We also invited his friend, Noah, to go with us. We all had a great time. They are having a dinosaur exhibit at the zoo right now so there are dinosaurs placed around the zoo. The boys thought they were so cool but Rylee didn't think they were so great though. She hid her face quite often going past them. Rylee loved all the other animals though and playing on the playground.

We also this past week celebrated Jeremys birthday since he will not be home for his actual birthday. First we went to dinner the night of June 1st with my parents and Aryn and Andy at Red Lobster. After dinner we surprised Jeremy with a new grill from me and my parents. He was very excited!







On June 2nd, we went to dinner with Jeremys mom and dad at Joes Crab Shack. They like to really embarrass people on their birthdays. They made Jeremy do the mexican hat dance as we sang to him. Good thing he is a good sport!






Then finally we had a bbq with Jeremys siblings on June 3rd. He wanted to break in his new grill before going back to Arizona on the 4th. It was a lot of fun.







We had a great time with Jer home this past 10 days. I miss him when he is gone and so do the kids a lot. But we make every moment count when he is home.
