May 2015

Holy cow, we had so much going on this month!!!!

Max:

Went to the dentist for the first time and has no cavities!

He LOVES the strawberries from our garden and usually eats them right off the plant. I was lucky enough to pick these before he got to them...but the second he saw them they were gone.

Porter:

He loves when friends come over, and often waits, and looks out the window until they arrive.

Finished his soccer season with 2 goals! He got a medal and a trophy at his team party, and hasn't put either of them down since.

More events for the month...

 We took the kids to the temple for FHE one night.

I'm not going to lie... they weren't as reverent as I thought they would be. In fact, once they grabbed on to the temple doors they started swinging from them...

but, the rest of the week Port was talking about the angel Moroni, and Max wanted to keep reading our temple book. I'd call that a success!

We made a couple more trips to Disneyland before our passes expire...

 We made a mess playing in the boys room...

 and, we wear pirate hats as we paint!

 Scott and I went to see "Les Miserables" at the Fox theater.

I love that musical so much, and haven't stopped singing the songs since we've been back. 

"Super dad" took the boys to "Father's and Sons" camping at Lake Perris.

This was Max's first year going, and looking at these pictures you can see that he loved it!

The boys were so happy to have their cousins visit this month.

They stayed with us while Scott, Romney, Charlie, and Dylan went back packing in Sequioa National park!

Scott's been working so hard lately taking care of me while I'm sick. On top of that he's been helping with the boys, working at work, teaching seminary, and being on the high council...he REALLY needed to get away.

He said it was cold, but worth it.

Him and Romney have had an ongoing "bromance" since our first Europe trip.

I got Scott back for a couple days, then he was off to Utah, to look at some properties. While he was there he did a beautiful hike with Carla's family.

Then he was off to his next adventure with the boys on my side of the family. 

They planned a fishing trip to Panguitch Lake...

I'm pretty sure they were happy with all their loot.

 I'm glad he got some bonding time with my brothers, but after this trip, I was really ready for Scott to come home.
