May 2013

May was very busy! Here are a few highlights:

Sterling started baseball again. Here are my boys, each so lucky to have a brother!



Mother's Day.
Who couldn't be happy with these cuties? And this amazing and beautiful breakfast in bed?


Preschool Graduation. Sheri is so grown up! Sniff sniff, I will be sending her off to kindergarten in a few short months!
She LOVED preschool! Miss Em was THE BEST! Sheri loves her so much! She had such wonderful experiences and fun times with great friends! Here she is on the last day and at graduation.


School wraps up. Here are pictures from the awards day and field day.
Eve got the peacemaker award "Dove" and Sterling got the joyful learner award "Almond Joy." The other two just needed their picture taken for being so cute!



Soccer finished for Sterling and Eve. Eve's team was able to play in the Kohls Tournament this year. It was a fun and energetic atmosphere! I think she enjoyed spending the day with her team but was wiped by the end of the day! Her coach has been so positive and motivating. He does his best to develop, stretch, and inspire the girls!
Sterling really seems to have a better sense of where he needs to be on the field and is developing more coordination. It is exciting to see the kids grow!
Here are some soccer pics.


The Father/Sons campout.


Memorial Day with the Johnsons - The Johnsons have been great friends of ours here in Omaha. Sherrie and I serve in the Relief Society Presidency together which is a priviledge! We are sad that they will be moving to D.C. but happy for their great opportunity there. They invited us to spend Memorial Day with them and their family. It is always nice to get such an invitation especially when your own family is not close by! We will surely miss them!



Sheri's Birthday was actually on Memorial Day but we celebrated the next day so friends could attend her princess party. She is 5 years old! What a sweet princess she is! And of course every princess needs a knight in shining armor. See if you spot Sheri's.



Her darling friends!


And now, Summertime!
Hanging out downtown near Matt's work.


Fun at the Children's Museum



And finally, here are a few random fun times.


Happy Summer!

April 2013

We have had a nice month, although spring seems to be taking its sweet time to bring nice weather. We have been busy. Here are a few highlights.

Eve's Birthday. We had a pajama party for her since we don't do sleepovers. The kids had a wonderful time jamming to Eve's new Kid's Bop CDs, playing games, and watching Mirror Mirror.



The Daddy/Daughter dance at school. Eve just finished a soccer game before sprucing up for her hot date!



Finding a small snake with friends in the neighborhood. My kids were not shy about holding it!



Sterling continues to LOVE Tae Kwon Do! This was his "testing" day. He got to break the boards with his hits. He may look mean, but don't be fooled! He is just as sweet as ever!



My new spring outfit and Sheri all "dolled up".



And of course, our favorite pass time, adoring little Christian.



Time flies by! I am trying to enjoy it despite being busy trying to balance everyone's needs. Soon school will be out and we will be off to new adventures!
