Well here goes I'm going to try and catch up on the last 4 weeks. So much happened I don't think I can remember it all, but I'm going to try! My baby girl graduated from preschool with all of her friends. I love love love these kids!
See how happy I am (: Of course I cried about my last preschool graduation. It was a little bitter sweet for me. Time just goes by so quickly. I was a little sad that Halle was not going to continue her education here with all her little friends too. I had just imagined myself being able to watch all these little kids grow up together.
Me and my little group at graduation! They did a great job singing for our program!
Me and Halle! We missed having Brent there with us, but we sent him a video.
Kelton my smart little guy with his teacher! The BEST TEACHER IN THE WHOLE WORLD! I wish all the teachers in the world were as awesome as Mrs. A! She was so loving and taught the kids so much. She is definitely one in a million. I'm so glad my little Keltonator was blessed to have her as his teacher. I'm so sad Halle is going to miss having her. We might just have to come back!
Halle with her Friday play date singing while I packed!
They 've got the moves!
Halle and Kara went to cheer camp for a couple days at Rocky Mountain High School. It was a little crazy, and we had a little peanut scare so I don't think I'll do that one again (well if I were going to be around).
Hayden graduated from 5th grade!!!
He received the Presidential Award!!!!
Awesome job HAYDEN!
He goes to the dreaded middle school next year!
We had to take lots of pictures of his last days as an Elementary school student!

While we were busy with end of year activities and packing Brent was busy working in Mississippi and also took a little trip to Tennessee to visit his sister Aunt Jenny and their family. Brent was gone for seven weeks and then returned home again to help us move out of our home. I had started packing back in March! I sorted, gave away half of the stuff in my home. My mom and dad took loads of stuff to D.I for me. I gave tons of stuff to friends and lots to G&G to give to family, and it still seemed as though I would never get to the bottom of all of my stuff!!! UGH!!! Did I say UGH! I should probably say some type of swear word, but I don't know any! Anyways I packed and packed and packed and packed! Grandpa came over lots to help me take loads to Nanny's garage. I never would have gotten done with out his help! I did take a little break from packing to complete my 80hr nursing refresher (yeah I have my license all updated). Then Brent came home and we packed and we sold stuff and we packed stuff and we sold stuff........ I never thought we were going to get done. From the time Brent got home on Tuesday until the following Wednesday we worked from sun up until well about midnight. I HATE MOVING! Well enough of that! Were all moved out and all my boxes are numbered and in Nanny's garage and we are so happy Nanny let us move in with her.
The kids built a sand castle while we were packing.
We took the kids to Thor while Brent was in town!
We thought the movie was AWESOME!
Brent took the kids to Target and let them dress up!
Kelton wanted a Thor hammer, but decided $20 was too much to spend on a hammer.
Oh yeah and a good friend took the boys to our father and sons since Brent was in Mississippi. The boys were so glad they got to go. They love to camp and pick up snakes! YUCK I HATE SNAKES!
Hayden caught a fish!
Oh yeah and the we took a bike ride to get a little snow cone.
It ended up being a 3 hour ride. We got a little lost, but those snow cones sure were good!
My bum is still sore from the ride and so is my sunburned back! Kara did not want to hear me voice the words "I think we go" one more time! I should write something more about the bike ride, but it is well past my bedtime and the pictures make it look like a fun little jaunt to the neighborhood snow shack, and I think that is the way I would like to remember it! Especially after I found out that there is a snow shack just up the street by our Walgreens.
Well Brent is back in Mississippi and thinks he has found a home for us. So I guess that means it's "FOR REALS!"
