May Happenings...

After neglecting my blog for a couple months I have decided it is time to catch up on what's been going on. Summertime has kept us very busy and that is why I haven't had time to post new pictures.

On May 16th we celebrated Phil's 33rd birthday. He is getting old :) The boys were excited to give him a new basketball for the basketball hoop we recently installed.

Since Phil's birthday was on a Sunday we decided to have a laid back celebration at my Mom's house. Both our families were able to attend the party and we had a great time. Doesn't Phil look so excited for his birthday??

The kids always have fun blowing out the candles. It was actually pretty hard for even a few of the kids to blow out all 33 candles.

During the months of May I signed Noah up for Itty Bitty Baseball. He had a lot of fun! He was really excited for the balloon and sucker he got on the last day.

Noah also finished his first year of preschool at the end of May. He did such a good job singing all the songs and participating in the program.

Here is Noah getting his diploma from Miss Joy.

Noah was so excited to get to throw his cap. That is his flying through the air.

We are so proud of everything Noah learned this year and look forward to another year of preschool with his great teachers, Miss Joy and Miss Chelsea.

I think Noah liked preschool because he got to go with his cousin Gracie and his buddy Cole.

Every year we take the kids to visit the graves of the grandparent Memorial Day weekend. The always love to visit Grandpa Larsen's grave that is really close to Grandma's house. Peyton always asks me about his Grandpa and can't wait until he gets to meet him someday.

We also went up to the Provo cemetery to visit the graves if Phil's grandparents and relatives. The boys sure miss their Great Grandpa Taylor who passed away a little over a year a go.

As always we headed up to Lagoon on Memorial Day. The kids have so much fun going with their cousins and Grandparents.

Lily had a lot of fun going on rides with her cousin Ellie. Ellie takes such good care of her!!

The boys having fun on a starship ride.

Noah and Gracie had a lot of fun going on a lot of the rides together.

Lagoon really wore Lily out. She never falls asleep on anyone, but she did at Lagoon because she was so exhausted and really needed a nap. We look forward to another fun day at Lagoon next year!!
