Casey did some service with the Priest group on the fourth. They trimmed some tree's for a ward member.
Due to weather Kendal's last track meet was pushed from Tuesday to Thursday of the first week of May. She qualified to run in the mile and 800. Kendal ran her mile in 7:54! She beat her previous time by more than a minute!! She ran the 800 and had a person best of 3:31. We are so impressed with her drive and can't wait to see what she can do in the coming years! While at he meet Peter and Alice found friends / cousins to hang out with. It ended up windy and overcast so after Kendal was done I opted to take Alice and Peter home. The 6/7th boys and girls won districts for Kimberly!

Late Friday afternoon we headed down to Logan for the weekend. Saturday we took the kids to do the Home Depot craft and plant a flower from AEI. It wasn't very warm so we headed up to David and Anica's to quickly assemble and paint the projects on their garage benches. That afternoon we went and visited Nana. The kids enjoyed going through picture books and Peter got Nana to go on a walk with him. That evening we had pizza and did popcorn and pinacolada's after.
Sunday was Mother's day. We had a nice morning and then went to church. I got to go to Relief Society for the first time in . . . with Katherine and my Mom! We enjoyed a nice day with family and got to have a big group for dinner; including Nana! I'm so grateful for my Mom, her love, her care, and the amazing example she is to me. I have so many amazing women in my life and count myself truly blessed to have their love and light in my life. I'm grateful for my three miracles. Kendal, Peter, and Alice I love you all so very much and count my blessings every day that your mine!
This past week felt like a blur - It was book fair week, which added a lot more hours to my work week and a lot more chaos to my mind.
Peter had his music performance on Wednesday. He didn't tell me he was singing a solo and I go a nice surprise with that. He and his class did a wonderful job in all of their songs. It was a joy to watch him so into his songs!
Kendal got back to back field trips this past week. On Wednesday she went out to Hagerman to go fishing. She didn't end up catching anything, but enjoyed her day out anyway. Thursday she got to go out to City of Rocks! They got to explore around and listen to a presentation about the area and it's history from the park rangers.
Alice got to go to a birthday party for Ava this week. She got to go before preschool then they ate lunch together and rode to preschool together. She got a unicorn headband that she wore for two strait days after. Waterford called last week to give an update on her progress. Alice is 1/3 of the way through first grade reading and her math skills are into first grade as well. She was praised for her work ethic and how well she picks up new concepts and words.
Peter had his last two soccer games this week. His medal game was on Thursday against the other undefeated team. It was their toughest game and the wind was against them, but they came out on top winning 3 to 2! Saturday they played their last game of the spring season and won 4 to 1. Peter played forward and scored a goal in his last game! So Peter ended his season undefeated. His team truly did a great job this season. Peter's coach handed out awards after his game Thursday and he gave Peter the "Team Captain" award because he was a true leader to his team. He worked well with everyone, was a moral booster for all, and had a great attitude all season! Peter has really enjoyed soccer and we've seen him grow and do great things this season!
Friday night was the father and son camp out for the ward. Casey and Peter picked up some pizza and headed out to balance rock and the camp ground next to it. They set up camp and then Casey hung around the fire while Peter ran around with the other hooligans. His little gang was at "war" with another group from a different ward. Casey didn't know who won, but they all survived. In the morning they fished a bit and the kids played a while longer before they headed out. The girls and I went to chick fill a and then did a bit of shopping.
There was a community fair at the school yesterday. We headed over after Peter's soccer game. They had free hot dogs and fries and then a bunch of booths and activities for the kids to do. Alice liked the mini ax throwing station and Kendal and Peter got to bounce around in inflatable balls. We ended our sunny outing with some snow cones!
