Kindergarten Graduation


Trey could not keep his eyes off Vince Liddiard who was signing for the audience. I think He was trying to figure out why Vince was not doing the right actions to the songs. I thought it was hilarious and laughed the entire time. Vince finally said "Hi" to him and Trey grinned and said "Hi" back and then he could pay attention again but He still couldn't figure out what song Vince was singing. Ha Ha! Below is his teacher, Misty Ovard. She is a great teacher and Trey loves her.

Friday we went to Pony Express to watch Trey say "goodbye" to Kindergarten and "Hello" to First grade. Actually "Hello" to summer first, hopefully. They sang about moving on to first grade and all they learned in Kindergarten which is all we really need to know, right? I'm so proud of him and how excited he gets about learning. Always asking questions from why do bees sting? to who fought in WWII? He is so curious and listens when you don't think he is and doesn't when you want him to. He really loves to read and I am so glad when I see him reading to his little brothers. It makes me realize that this time goes by too quickly and I can't get it back. My daily resolution to be more patient, loving and kind to my children is in full swing again. Just a reminder to all my friends lets enjoy being mothers right now. I'm so glad I am a mother.

Mothers Day






It was a good Mothers Day! My kids were pretty good, the weather was beautiful and I got the new Stephanie Meyer book "The Host". We drove up American Fork canyon on the Saturday before and did a little fishing and had a picnic. There was a slight breeze that made it chilly, Definitely not camping weather yet. I am loving this weather the last few days though and it is starting to feel like summer. Should I get excited that it might last? I'll just enjoy it while it is here.

boys birthday bash






I am all partied out from a long birthday celebration. All that remains is half a birthday cake, a pluthera of toys that we haven't put down since opening and 12 half-flated balloons that we just can't seem to throw away. The boys were so glad to have a party with their friends and to see their cousins. It really was a great week but I wonder if it will be like this every year. We've got to come up with a new plan. I thought the Star Wars obsession would have faded by now but is on the rise again with the new Jedi robes and light sabers Grandma Char bought them. Luckily Trevon got two light sabers so he is sharing with Tyce because he will not be left out of anything.

Finally, Trevon has mastered the potty before his 4th birthday. I can't believe it happened. I knew it would but I was tired of waiting. I am so proud of him. Like most things it just had to be his idea and the threat that he would have to wear pink girl panties if he went in his pants. There is nothing worse for Trevon than to have to do something girly. Anyway, he got new cars underwear so everyone had to try them on. Apparently underwear on the head is typical of boys. It's the first I've seen (besides on Animal House) but I'm sure it will not be the last.

Trevons playdate

Trevon played at Jaxon's house and came home looking like this.
He enjoyed every minute of it and just had to have his picture taken to show dad later.
