More updates

This past Friday was a spur-of-the-moment party for Bradyn's birthday. He wanted Merrit to come so we brought the whole family. They went to see the movie Furry Revenge. It was pretty cheesy with little plot line, but the kids enjoyed it. Here they are after the movie was over.



This past Saturday we helped with a service project with our 4-H group. We are becoming more and more involved with 4-H and I think the kids really enjoy it. I think it's been good for them. Here is the group of us that went with the Gleaners group who invited us to come.


Makayla has a school performance tomorrow and Merrit has one on Thursday this week. I'm sure we'll have pictures of those to post too. This month is looking to be super busy for us. I'm so glad my classes have finished. I received an A in both. I was pretty happy about that. Charlie finished his super hard class last Wednesday and then began his next one the following day. The class he is in now is so much easier. He's pretty happy about that. The kids are all doing well. We signed the youngest three up for karate. They started last Thursday. They had fun. I'll have to get some pictures of them doing some moves. Their class is only 6 weeks long. We could sign them up for the next class, but we are playing it by ear. We also signed Merrit up for baseball. It's been his dream for years now. His first game is June 7th. The don't have a practice schedule yet. Merrit is so excited about it. We've been trying to help him practice here at home. I hope he has fun and does well. The season only goes until the middle of July, which is good since we leave for vacation then. I'm glad he won't miss any games because of vacation.

We are going to Palmyra and then Nauvoo. We are pretty excited.

That should be a fun and long trip. Since they are in opposite directions of each other :) I really want to go to Palmyra too, but I need to get a passport first!!!

Yup, we took care of our passports over spring break. We just got them back about a week ago. It's not a terrible process, but a little pricey.
