New pictures finally . . .

Last month our computer blew up. It had something to do with Gabe vacuuming, the computer being on, a USB cord laying on the carpet, and static electricity. So we bought a new computer and so I can actually get my pictures off the camera. So here are pictures I've taken since the post.

We planted our first garden this year. The kids were very helpful. It's pretty neat seeing it grow. We love to check on it and see how it's doing. I hope we get some good vegetables.



Gabe had his first spanish immersion dance festival. His class did a song and a dance. He was not into the dancing part at all. He has had a great year and loved his teacher, Sra Duran. She is awesome.



Sterling had a kindergarten graduation. It was really cute. The kids sang songs and then had a ceremony. Sterling loved kindergarten. He took off with reading and is ready to start 1st grade.



Alicia had her pre-school celebration. Liz is such an awesome pre-school teacher. Alicia loves her and wants to know when school is going to start again.



Asher loves to put on hats. Over the last month I've tried to get a picture when he has a new hat on. He will be seventeen months in two days. He is so happy and fun.





Last week Ryan cut Gabes hair. He had a lot of fun and made his hair a piece of art.

Gabe got his bobcat in scouts at his first pack meeting. It was a lot of fun. We got to put paint on Gabe's face and he put some on ours. He was very kind and only put a dot on our noses.

 

 

 

Sterling got an award from his soccer coach for having the first goal of the season.

 

Sterling recently lost his third tooth. It was loose so he let Ryan pull it out. It took him three times. Sterling was tough. He was very excited to get $3.00 under his pillow.

 

Telos Triathalon

I DID IT!!! Yesterday morning was my triathalon. I did it in 1 hr. 27 min. I ran the whole time (3.1 miles in 30 minutes), biked the whole time (10 miles in 42 minutes) and swam the whole time (350 meters in 14 minutes). I was the most disappointed with my swim. I hadn't swam after running or biking and my arms felt like they were going to fall off. I'm going to work on my speed when I run and I'm going to learn how to swim the right way. I placed 79th out of 124 women. I was 221 out 284 overall. I can't wait to beat my time next year.

 

Easter

This Easter time I feel so thankful to have a Savior's that loves us so much and to have such a wonderful family!!!

 

 

 

 

Gabriel's Baptism

I can't believe Gabe is eight years old. His baptism day was a neat day. Gabe was so excited and felt so good about it. He was baptized with three other boys in our ward. We had wonderful family there so share this wonderful experience with us.

 

 

 

Gabriel's 8th Birthday

Gabe had a really good birthday. First Gabe took twelve of his friends to Backyard Adventures. They all had a lot of fun running around everywhere and going up and down slides. I wish I had some of their energy.

 

 

Then later with family we went and ate at one of Gabe's favorite places, Arbys, and had cupcakes and opened presents. I just can't believe he is eight years old!
