First Day of School

Today was Shea's first day of Kindergarten! I can't believe she is old enough to go to school. She has been counting down the days the past couple weeks. It was super easy getting her up this morning!! She loves her class and loves her teacher! I was actually surprised that I did alright too! NO tears!

Not even when we put her on the bus, all by herself! I thought I would at least drive her to school the first week so that she knew where to go and wouldn't be worried. Nope, she just had to ride the bus the first day.

I think this was the most exciting thing for her! She was getting so worried that the bus was late.

Swimming Lessons and Lemonade Stand

Shea wanted to do a lemonade stand to earn money for Disneyland. We had to go down to my moms house to do this, because we live in the farm country. Not a good place to have a lemonade stand. She was out there for about 3 hours and made about $30. Shea does not like the heat and that was all she could last!

This last week was also swimming lessons. They do swimming camps, where you have 2 - 1 hour swim lessons a day, for a week. She just finished yesterday, and passed LEVEL 1!

Swimming and San Francisco

I can't believe school is almost here. This summer went way to fast for us, so I decided to take the girls to the Splash Park for the first time this year. Way sad, cause it was at the end of July. We have been way to busy this summer. The girls absolutely enjoyed it! I have some cute kids!

My little sister Brooke is moving to France for a year to nanny for a family. We are so sad that she is leaving, but excited for her. She is going to love it there. She had to appear in person at the French Embassy in San Francisco to get her Visa, so we decided to tag along. It was a really quick but fun road trip. Brooke forgot her camera on the day we were going to San Francisco so we didn't get any pictures. I finally decided to pull out my broken camera and take a couple going over the Golden Gate Bridge. My sister in law lives in the Sacramento area, so she let us crash at her place. I am so lucky to have an awesome sister in law!! Thanks Cyndi! We also went to the Jelly Belly Factory in Fairfield! Yum!

This picture was taken on our way back to Cyndi's from San Francisco. I have no idea who she learned this from!!! I swear! ha ha.

T-ball

I finally remembered to take my camera for Shea's last T-ball game. They may have a couple make up games, but I took a lot of pictures just in case. Rylee is in love with babies. She will not go to sleep without some type of baby.

My little sister Brooke came up to see her game. Shea loves Brooke so much, she wanted to introduce her to the team. And Yes, Shea has a crush on a boy on her team. He told his mom that Shea was his girlfriend and her eyes lit up! Funniest thing ever!!!

PLAYING IN THE FIELD

BATTING

Rylee had to give her a hug and a kiss after she hit the ball.

THE FIELD AGAIN

Many things to do in the field!

Notice her entire team is sitting! haha.

Bear Lake

Last weekend we were able to visit my family in Bear Lake. It was a nice little get together. We got to the cabin Sunday afternoon and sat around. My mom and I played card games, which was so much fun. Monday morning we went to the beach for the day! Around 3pm it started getting really cloudy and windy, so we decided to pack up and go. It was the perfect amount of time in the sun. Here's my two little girls just before we left.

Shea wrote her name in the sand. She that it was the coolest thing ever.

Rylee playing ball with Dad. She could do it all day!

The girls really had a good time playing in the sand. Uncle Jonathan helped them build a sandcastle and all the kids played with it for hours. It was super nice!

Here's just a picture of my little Rylee, being Rylee!

T-ball

It's official. Shea has started T-ball. It's a little bitter sweet for me. Sweet because T-ball is the funnest thing to watch, but I'm a little bitter because I hate the weather. It's cold and windy and cold!! Oh well, I guess it's worth it to watch the little ones learn how to play. Shea seems to like it a lot. Shea and one other girl are the only girls on the team. It's a little scary because Shea doesn't seem to mind one little bit. She loves playing with the boys and she has met some new friends. She better get sick of all the boys because she is starting dance lessons in a couple weeks. Rylee is growing up so fast. Just out of the blue she has started to put a couple words together. We can sort of understand her now between all the screaming! ha ha. Her new thing is yelling at the top of her lungs every time she sees a cow. And living up her she sees a lot of them! She will not stop yelling until someone eclogues the fact that she sees it. Oh, and she is climbing out of her crib, which makes my nights really long. Wayne is still working hard as ever. The hotel that I work at has been super slow. Some people in our ward bought a Subway and needed some help covering some shifts. So I have been helping them out since March. It's only a couple days a week and only for 2 hours, so it's been pretty nice getting a little money since I haven't been working much at the hotel. We are hoping to pick back up in mid June. The dogs are crazy as ever. Mack, our golden retriever, loves to lie down in all the mud puddles. UGG! Well, that's about it in my life. Hope to bring some more t-ball pictures soon. I keep forgetting my camera!

Last but not least, FAMILY!

Shea was super excited to see her cousins the entire trip. She was super patient waiting until the last 3 days of our vacation to see them. Bekah and Shea are two peas in a pod!

We got down to Cyndi and Mike's on Friday night, and Saturday their ward was doing a Easter Egg Hunt for the ward. So of course we had to go!

Rylee was excited about her eggs, but then turned to a stick.

Easter morning, getting ready for the Family Easter Picnic.

All the cousins on Easter morning.

Every year, Wayne's moms side of the family always gets together for a Easter Picnic. This was one of the reasons Wayne really wanted to go to California. He wanted the girls to be there for the Easter Egg Hunt. We had a lot of fun even though it was cold, then hot, then cold, then hot! ha ha.

Both babies exhausted after a long day!
