Catch up!


Erick graduated from Kindergarten, (so glad they have a ceremony to celebrate this momenteous occasion (can you sense the sarcasm dripping here?) It does give the parents a chance to see them sing some pretty cute songs though!

Rachel also got an award at the awards assembly chosen for her sweet music skills!

During our break between school years, Brian's family had a family trip to the ranch where the hightlight was the cousin camps the kids participated in. Erick was in the "Buckin Broncos" group, they learned cowboy manners, dressed like cowboys, rode an actual buckin bronco constructed by Brian and his engineer friend, and shot paintballs at targets.


Rachel and the older girl cousins were in the group "Hula Hunnies." They made some crafts and their Aunt Kortni taught them a genuine hula and how to perform with poi balls.


And last but not least the kids started 1st and 3rd grade yesterday! Everything went smoothly and Erick likes being at school with Rachel and riding the bus home with her. She likes being his mother hen;) They both got great teachers that they like, and that makes me happy too! And don't worry I am keeping plenty busy at "home" alone all day long!!!
