Claire had her big graduation last night.  She sang some songs and received her kindergarten certificate.  She was absolutely adorable.  She is excited for first grade.  Nile just has a half day of school left and then we will be in summer mode.  The kids are so excited for the pool to open up on Saturday, hopefully it will be warm enough to enjoy.  Scott is busy painting because the boys get their new bunk bed tomorrow.  They are so excited.

Mother's Day Weekend

We had a busy Mother's Day weekend.  We went to St. Louis so we could be there to hear my brother Jonathan call home from his mission.  It was great to hear him.  He has become very fluent in the language.  Some of his friends were there and they were shocked that he was speaking so well and had learned the language as well as he has.  The kids loved hearing from uncle Jonny.  

The kids ordered me some running shoes and a running outfit for mother's day.  I loved them!!!  

My sister also came in town for Mother's Day and all the cousins had a fun time hanging out.  They put on their swimsuits and sun glasses and were "tanning" on the golf green.  While we were in town my other brother Jason wasn't feeling so well.  He went to the urgent care center and they said he might have mono.  He thought that was crazy but sure enough on our way home my dad called to say that the doctor had called and confirmed that he has mono, so hopefully no one else in the family gets it.
