Peter and Angela's Wedding:
This was such a great day, with a beautiful sealing, and such a fun, exquisite reception :)
Plus I loved seeing my kids all dressed up cute.
Except for it took way longer to start taking pics than anticipated, and somehow Brooklyn got her brand new dress all black :( I was so upset!! I tried my best to clean it up, but I was just annoyed because had we started pics on time, her dress would've been spotless!
So hard getting kids to all look at the camera at the same time. Usually only one kid looks good at a time in a pic.
Plus I had to document that Brooklyn will go to Uncle Dick, and let him hold her. She won't often let other people hold her, and actually most kids are afraid of him, ha ha. So sweet :)
I kept waiting for one of them to fall in, but surprisingly they stayed dry.
Payt's Last Day of School:
Payt got his pic on the last day, so CJ wanted one too.
One of the kids' mom's, Lindsey Hardison, planned a fun class party with all minute-to-win-it games.
Cereal Box Puzzles:
Ping Pong Lint Roller Catch:
Cotton Balls stuck on your nose with petroleum jelly:
Plus so adorable, they had a red carpet and fun music the kids walked down, while the paparazzi (me :) took pictures of them while they got some kind of candy certificate.
Payton got a big box of "Nerds" "for your intelligence and hard work in all areas."
It was really cute and the kids loved it.
Other Random May Pictures:
I can't remember why, but we had some big water balloons when our friends Scott and Lia Gardner were over, and Scott threw the last one to Casey who had a baseball bat, and it made this cool picture!
Cousins came over after school one day, and Payton had been saving a bag of recycled stuff to make a robot with. I knew this was the perfect job for his cousin Warren to help him with. Look how cool it turned out :)
Brooklyn went to a handful of swim lessons before we left on all our summer vacations. I had 'bought' them from a Relief Society Service Auction, so we got them for free.
She absolutely hated them. I felt really bad because she screamed THE WHOLE TIME. At the end she had swallowed so much water and was screaming uncontrollably, that she vomited all over the teacher. Oops sorry... I felt so bad. She didn't really learn how to swim at all, but by the end she stopped crying for the lessons, ha ha.
I thought it would help that her friend Paige was in the class, but she cried a lot too at first, so wasn't much help.
Oh well, maybe next year we'll do better.
I've tried working with her every time we swim (which is everyday that we're home), and she couldn't ever figure out how to hold her breath, or even shut her mouth when I dunked her under, until just this week. Yay!! Progress!! She'll blow bubbles and barely put her own face in. And she does love to kick her legs. So we'll get there eventually...
