Some updates

DANCE FESTIVAL




(Left:Aww these are a few of Reese's best buddies this year, Eric and Spencer, of course he made quick friends with twins!! Right: Reese and Mrs. Warnick his awesome teacher on the last day of school.)

I've been wanting to blog about Reese for a few days now but I got really sick yesterday and was out of it all day long. Anyway, Reese is out of school! :( I have mixed feelings, it's nice to have him home and not running him back and forth to school AND doing homework got to be annoying! But he loves school so much and thinks he's starting 1st grade tomorrow! Poor kid has no idea how much fun summer can be, he'll get there one day!
Two days before school got out he had a dance festival, apparently it's a big deal in Utah and they have been practicing for weeks. The kindergarten classes did a Charleston and it was SOOO cute to see 143 of them all dressed up and looking great! Here's a few pictures of Reese from that day.
Also we got Reese a bike for Christmas and he's been practicing on it in the basement this whole time. It's been nice for a few weeks but Reese always plays on his little Razor so finally we forced him to grab his bike and try it out on the street. He's always kind of a martyr about doing something new especially if he knows he might get hurt. Anyway back to forcing him... he grabbed his bike and took off right away. I don't think Ryan even really had to help him, they kind of skipped over the whole daddy holding onto the back of the seat stage. He apparently has better balance then he thought and was a pro at it right away. He's fallen of course but he's pretty confident and has done so well. We're so proud of him, he's growing up too fast! We feel old!

Last but not least...


Updated pictures of our youngest Newcomer, well for right now! Sherman is getting so big and of course he's still a little booger pup but he's so fun. He thinks I'm his biting toy and Ryan is his walking and all around fun buddy. But look how cute he is. He may look sad but he's NOT! :)

Hey guys!
Isn't this blog stuff a great! I'm so glad to have a way to keep in touch with friends and family. It's great to see what you are all up to. You have such a beautiful family. I just can't believe how big your kids are! Hey, did you go to the 172nd war reunion a couple months ago? I really wish we could've made it but seeing is we're across the country.... Anyway, I think it's funny that you're in my sister's ward. It's a small world, huh?
