Uncle Eric Graduated from school with a double Masters Degree (WOOT! WOOT!) and so to celebrate, we all got together and ate Sushi (Erics favorite food!)
Here are some pics from the event!
Eric with his nieces and nephews (short Olivia and Grace)
The kiddos were pretty cute:
Group Shot:
What a great way to celebrate Uncle Eric, we LOVE him!!
The last day of school is kind of silly, since the kids only go for a short time!
But it was long enough to say goodbye to friends and teachers!
Mrs. Clegg and Intern Mrs. Burton for Tru
And Mrs. Hurst and Mrs. Long for Tuck
The kids came home with all sorts of prizes,
And I was so excited for them to be home!!!!
Then off for a picnic,
Then we met up with some friends to hike Battle Creek Park,
And later that evening, a neighborhood party, to celebrate school being over!!
Let the summer adventures begin!
I am CONSTANTLY finding pictures on my phone, and one of the kiddos favorite subjects as of late is Scout. Usually she is posed just like this. How the kids love this dog!
And are we surprised that she wanted pink ice-cream? I think not! 🙂
And even better, that she got to bring a pink spoon! 🙂
For summer, I decided I needed a double stroller to keep up with the big boys on their bikes. I know it’s just going to be a short time before Elliot can ride his own bike with the big kids, so we didn’t want to spend too much, but we have LOVED going out together with the littles in the jogging stroller, the bigs on their bikes, and me with my rollerblades. It’s been a nice way to be active, and get around, and honestly stay up with the big kids! 🙂
We love living close to a pond. The boys got up early to go fishing, and Lorelei and I joined them later…
And soon enough the littles had found the beach, then the water….
A video of Truman trying to cast into the wind:
It was a great morning, followed by a movie with the Greene Family–“the Croods”. A great day.
We love a good hike, and Elliot especially loves a hike with a waterfall in it, so this hike has quickly become a family favorite, even Scouty enjoyed it this time! 🙂
Mom knew they were going on a date, but didn’t know what they were going to do…
First Ice-Cream:
Second, Hair Cut!
And yes, I did tear up when I saw my wild haired man with his hair all cut off! It always makes them seem so big, whenever they have a dramatic hair cut! 🙂
I got to help again at Truman’s field day, at the sponge fight/throwing spot again. (Not the funnest spot because it was FREEZING cold!)
Of course I had to the two littles with me, and Truman was darling walking around helping them at each of the stations. (they were having fun, I promise, I don’t know why they look so grouchy in this picture!)
Even though he didn’t have to! 
That might have been my favorite part of the day, except, Truman’s face got painted awesomely. I love that he chose a monocle and a mustache.
BUt the day got even better ’cause Toph was working in Utah County that day, and was able to stop by for lunch with us.
Love having the chance to participate and help him and his class, and love that I got to do with so many of the people I love.
(last picture emailed me from Mrs. Clegg his teacher! Darling, Darling, Darling!)
I had over 200 sponges for Truman’s field day activity, I brought them home, and washed them all, and while I put them on the sidewalk to dry, Elliot found them again, and played and played and played with them.
I thought these videos were pretty cute.
