FIVE FABULOUS FERGIES

Writing Contest Winner

The day before Open House, Kylie heard her name on the morning announcements. She came home to tell me that she had been the first grade winner of an Earth Day writing contest. She was told to write about how we can help the environment and do our part to save the Earth. Her work was displayed with the other winners from second to fifth grade in a display case on campus. She was excited to see it hanging there, and we all had the chance to see it the night of Open House!

Open House at School - Already?

I honestly cannot believe that it is time for Open House. This year has flown by. Kylie had her Open House in April this year, and Chad's is coming up in the middle of May. Kylie has had an awesome year in first grade and has loved every minute of it. She is already telling me that she does not want the summer to come....she's crazy. We are so proud of all of her accomplishments and it was fun to see everything all up around her classroom. It looked great and we had a lot of fun visiting school. Chad was able to have a sneak peak at Kindergarten and visit his future classroom! Thanks to all of our families for coming to support Kylie!

More Water Fun

I had to add in these extra pictures! We had a blast that day!

LOVING the warm weather

Yes, I know some people can't stand that it is 100 degrees in the spring - but we are really enjoying it. We love to be outside with the kids, and they love to play in the water. Delaney and Vincenzo (our neighbors) joined us for a fun day outside on the slip-n-slide. Cameron thought that it was the best thing ever! Looking forward to more fun and hot days in the summertime!

No really....Cameron is walking!

It's about time - check out our big boy getting around! He is such a cute kid...we love having him around. He gives the best cuddles ever and always has a smile on his face. He wants to be just like Kylie and Chad and lights up whenever they are around! He is so proud of his new found independence!

Easter Day Pictures

Easter morning was so much fun with the kids. We actually had to calm Kylie and Chad down and remind them that there were other kids looking for eggs too! They got so excited that they started to yell at each other and it became a fight to see who could get the eggs first. It's pretty funny to hear me yelling at them on our Easter video. (Nice). I guess this is the first of many crazy Easter egg hunts now that our kids are getting older.

We spent the morning having brunch with my family, went to church (and Kylie gave a great talk in Primary), and then had dinner with David's family. It's always a long day, but we had a great time. Here are some pictures of our Easter day!

Easter

Easter time was great this year and as busy as ever! Chad participated in an Easter parade at school, we enjoyed a HUGE Easter party with Chad's friend Sal (from preschool), and we decorated lots of eggs.
