Clark Planetarium






Each week during the summer Jayden and Skyler choose a subject to learn about. We have learned about the United States and individual states, Planets, Constellations, and are currently learning about creatures in the sea. We were able to make a trip to the Clark Planetarium at the Gateway to finish our week learning about planets and stars. While there, we let the kids play in the fountains outside. Skyler screamed “this is the best day of my life”. Obviously simple things make him a very happy boy.

Happy Birthday Sky!!!



BIRTHDAYS!!!






June is a crazy month for our family. Taylor and Aysia share the same birthday and Skyler's is 4 days later. Aysia just turned the BIG 1!!! We celebrated it at a nearby park with family. As you can see it was a “ladybug” theme. She was a little hesitant about eating her own birthday cake, but as you can see once she got started she couldn’t stop. Skyler loved his “transformer” cake and all the presents he received as well.

The Fair






After the softball tournament we went to the local fair and took Regina, Harley, Jayden, Skyler, Brianna, and kassidi on a few rides. Luckily Noelle was brave enough to take them all on the Gravitron. We volunteered her for any necessary clean-up. Luckily there was none and the kids loved it.

Softball Tourney!!




Noelle entered us in a family softball tournament. Dad, Mom, Noelle, Janson, Rob, Taylor, Kevin, Frank, Shauna, Amanda, and a few friends participated. We actually took 3rd place and received a huge trophy and medals. We had some fabulous cheerleaders to cheer us on as well. We look forward to the next one Noelle!!!

Logan




We all went to Logan to visit Taylor’s family and watch Kyler, my nephew, graduate as well as congratulate Zach, Taylor’s brother, on his graduation. We stayed the night at a Hotel and let the kids swim. It was Aysia’s first official swimming pool experience and she loved it. Lacee loved the water too. It was a nice little getaway.

Piano Recital


Jayden has been taking piano lessons for the last 4 months and just completed his first recital at a local school. He played Surprise Symphony by Joseph Hayden and did an amazing job. He is now working on the Jurassic Park, Indiana Jones, and Star Wars theme songs. (altered to his playing ability). He really enjoys it so far, but ask in another 6 months and it might be another story.

Baby Contest




We entered Aysia in her first baby contest. She took 3rd place and won a cute little gift bag. She now has her four front teeth and loves to show them off any chance she gets. She has also learned how to walk and took her first steps on Mother's day.

Memorial Day




We were able to spend Memorial day with the Robinsons in Park City at a Condo on the Canyons resort. The kids loved swimming in the 50 degree weather. Luckily they had very warm water and a nice daddy to take them. Aysia and I watched from the sidelines.

Last Day of School



Jayden has officially completed his first year of school and Skyler his first year of pre-school. It’s amazing how quickly they grow up. Jayden looks forward to “all day school” next year, but is most excited about School lunch!! Mmmmm… yummy!
