Last Day of School

I'm gearing up for summer!  It's taking me a bit to get there.  I just got used to my kiddos going to school on four different time schedules - it's been pretty nuts.  



Since it was the last day of school - the four grade school kids got to go together.


I took pictures of them going to school.
Then I went inside and cried.
Now I'm ready for summer!
Sniff sniff.

Soccer Season

Soccer season has come and gone AGAIN! It was great fun trying to get three Jensenites to three games at three different locations at usually the same time every Saturday. Next year FIVE Jensenites will be playing - the ladybugs are so excited!

Foolish parents!

I do want to take this time to award Cameron the Most Amazing Soccer Dad Award. He loves watching the kids play and taking them to their games and I am so glad. I really do like that they play both fall and spring season.

Nutty parents.

Trevor


Dude! The 'WE SCORED' body slam!


Trevor refused to wear his soccer cleats.
I didn't push it either - he'll realize soon enough.


Wait for it....



And the shoe goes flying off!
Did he realize? Nah!


Jarin LOVES all sports!










Makayla





Classic!

Until next soccer season.

Kindergarten Graduation

What's better than being a twin?
Having your twin in the same class with you!

What a great year!

Just because I have bragging rights.... these two ladybugs are on level 12 reading level.
Kindergarten level is 1-5. Level 12 is at the end of 1st grade.
Stinkin' cute book worms!

School Endings

The last week of school brings back nostalgic memories for me.  I loved my school days -from the first day of school to the last week of fun activities.  Since my kids are in the same school district I grew up in, they experience many of the activities that I remember doing.

Dance Festival
I wanted to watch the kids perform their dances through my real eyes and chose not to view them through my camera, hence the 'before' photos of them.

Jarin goofing off with his friends.


Trevor mumbled a whole lot about having to dance to a High School Musical song.
You'd never know it by watching him - he looked like he was having the time of his life.


The girls did the hula dance and were just too cute!



Awards Assembly
Jarin earned The Great American Challenge Award.
As a fifth grader, they are encouraged to receive this award by memorizing the Preamble, Gettysburg address, the presidents in order, states and capitals, and sing the Star Spangle Banner as well as write and spell correctly the Pledge of Allegiance.

Jarin went so far as to play the Star Spangle Banner on the piano.
That's my boy!



The girls received 100% attendance for their kindergarten year.  
Only three kindergarten students accomplished that goal.
I think having afternoon kindergarten helped accomplish that goal.
Plus they LOVE LOVE school.

Just Another Monday

One week left of school and this is what we woke up to Monday morning..... always a Monday.

It snowed all morning.


My trees didn't know what to do.


My peas were lovin' it.


I was snug inside with the smell of Lilacs.
Let it snow!

La Caille

La Caille
This stunning 17th century chateau is a French restaurant nestled inside the Wasatch Mountains.  It is the place where Cam's Executive MBA class of 2010 celebrated their graduation.  


Stunning and Sweet!


The grounds were full of beautiful creations.


























Congrats Hon!
