Birthday Girls and Girls Camp

We've got another double-digit aged child in the house! Ashlyn requested lots of Harry Potter and Paris themed items for her birthday. When shopping, it's usually pretty easy to spot something she'll LOVE!

Kaylee's birthday celebrations began a few days early with a "heart attack" from the Young Women. Is she really old enough to be in Young Women?!

And her real birthday began extra early, as she took off for Girls Camp!

She has to borrow a few fingers from someone else to get enough to count her age!

She had an awesome time, but was SOOO tired when she got home Friday night. 

The day after she got home from camp we had her family birthday celebration. (I think these kids should stop growing up!)

Marvelous May

McKell's preschool had a Cinco de Mayo field trip to a local restaurant to learn about and make their own tacos! McKell's taco had the following ingredients: cheese.

Mother's Day was lovely, as usual. I got in trouble for taking a shower before the girls could bring me my breakfast in bed though. Oops!

McKell and I got to watch Ashlyn and the other 4th graders at their end of year track meet. It was held at the high school stadium. Now every time we drive by McKell points to the stadium and reminds me that is the place we watched Ashlyn do her track and field. 

Ashlyn's events were the standing long jump and the frisbee throw. She was also chosen as a member of the group that sang The National Anthem as the day began. 

Ashlyn also had her 4th grade promotion ceremony in May. We're so proud of this cutie, and excited for the adventures that await her next year in Intermediate School.

Grandma and Grandpa came for a visit right after the girls finished up the school year. Hooray! We love visitors. And we also love the treats they brought us from the BYU Bookstore. :)

Matchy-matchy for Memorial Day!
