Cousin time

Aunt Nellie invited these three to swim in the pool at her townhome.  They had a blast.

Sam has been practicing his flute during daycare.  The kids decided to put on a parade.  Sam played and they all took turns leading the parade.

Ada spoke in church on Sunday.  She did beautifully and I cried.

Evelyn and Sam got to hug cousins before going to FSY for the week.  It was fun to see them even for a minute.

FSY drop off.  Sam was confident and excited. Evelyn was nervous and optimistic.

Ada, Jer, Seth and I got to go to Splash Summit with Amy's family.  It was really nice and we came home hungry and tired.

Sunday we had dinner together and we'll see cousins again next week.

 

Father's Day

This father has put up with a lot from me this year and he's handling everything so well.  I love him dearly.  The kids made his favorite pancakes in the shape of a train.  We "tricked" all the guys in the ward into wearing the same tie to church.  It was fun to see all the guys giggle as they realized that they were all matching.  I didn't get a picture of it and I really should have.  The Primary sang The Family is of God.

 

After the ballet

Our tradition is to take a few photos on the steps after her ballet.  It was late and dark... but that didn't stop us!

 

Art and Ballet

In the building where the ballet was, there is usually 3 art shows going on.  This year the artist was one that made giant flowers and bugs.  I didn't catch her name, but she's from Monticello, ID (Bear Lake).  She let me take portraits of Evelyn in the flowers.  I should have brought a light source.... But it was perfect for my "butterfly".  She even let me buy one of the roses to give to Evelyn after.
