37th Anniversary
My parents anniversary was last week and was the first one my mom would be spending without my dad here with her. That morning, my sister Kylie, my mom and I went to the temple to do sealings and it was a really special experience. I loved being in the temple with her and could feel my dad close by. That night, all of the kids and grand kids met up at Aloha Kitchen( my parents favorite) for dinner and to celebrate our wonderful parents and the choice they made 37 years ago. It was an emotional day for me, wishing my dad was here to celebrate with my mom...but how grateful I am for my parents and all they have taught me.
Bridal shower for Aimee
Aimee is getting married!!! Crazy! I am so happy for her and Sam and the Clouse's hosted such a fun bridal shower for her!
Preschool Graduation
I can't believe how quickly this year flew by! Usually by the last month of preschool, I am counting down the days until summer...but I feel like I didn't even have time to do that! It was here before I was ready! I think graduation went well, we had a great turnout of family and friends and the kids were adorable!! Parker "officially" graduated too! I can't believe he will be moving on to kindergarten. This was one of the craziest/busiest years with 3 kids at home and teaching preschool so I am looking forward to next year and I know Parker will love kindergarten...but at the same time, I am sad that he will be heading off to school, I know I am gonna miss having him around and since he has never done anything without me...not even primary or preschool(since I am with him for both), it will be an adjustment for both of us! I love my sweet Parker boy!!!

Last t-ball game
Parker had his last t-ball game and did great! He got to play 1st base and catcher so he got to be in on the action! I am so proud of him for playing with a group of kids that he didn't know, he made friends and did a great job this season! They had a pizza party and cupcakes after the game and passed out their pictures. The trophies were supposed to be there but weren't, so he will get that later! What a fun season, with sooo many fans at every game supporting him! I think he easily had the bigger cheering section:) the coach said something about each kid and I laughed that he said "pound per inch...Parker had the hardest hit of everyone on the team. You look at him as he walks up and you might think he is small, but then he would whack that ball so hard!" haha
Water Day
I can't believe how fast this year of preschool went!! I have loved it and will miss this group so much! All 12 are moving on to kindergarten! We enjoyed a water party, before our last day of school---graduation is tomorrow!!
Mothers Day
On mothers day we went to Tanner and Chaya's for a yummy dinner and enjoyed time as a family! It was also Matt's birthday this year, so I made him a Reese's Oreo icecream cake or dessert. It was such a wonderful day and I am so thankful for my wonderful mother and mother-in-law and I love my hubby so much and hope he had a wonderful birthday! I am sooo grateful to be a mom of 3 adorable boys and couldn't have asked for a better day!
A Mothers Brunch
A good friend of my dads, who also manages the Hilton invited our entire family down and fed us the most amazing all you can eat buffet, honoring all the mothers! It was delicious and such a joy to be together as a family and I am so grateful to have such an incredible mom!!!
Best Dad
Yes I took this picture in church...don't judge me! I was just laughing when I looked over and saw my most amazing husband with all 3 monkeys at church. He is the best dad in the world!
Chipped Tooth
Can't really tell but we discovered that this boy somehow managed to chip off the bottom of one of his front teeth!? Luckily it's not really noticeable and he is so chill, we are not sure when it even happened?? Love this boy!! My little Matt junior!
