End of School

On May 18, Graci graduated from Kindergarten! 

She worked hard to memorize her part for the program. The day started off really windy and by the time it was all over, it was pouring rain! And cold. We braved the weather and went to the Red Barn with Grandma and Grandpa Ewell to celebrate with ice cream.

A while back, maybe April or early May, Brian went with the girls and his dad to a BYU track meet. They had lots of fun but Shelby kept her ears covered the whole time because she didn't like when the gun went off. 

Kenni was really excited to get their picture taken with a "really fast girl"

A few days ago I walked past the front room and Kenni had a photo shoot set up with Shelby as her model. 

She did exactly what her photographer was telling her to do. Even in her pajamas.

I like how she was told told to smell the potpourri

The last weekend of May Kim and Carl's kids had soccer tournaments in Layton. They dropped Camille off wtih us and headed up north. That Saturday night we met them for a Real SL game. It was our first pro soccer game and we had a blast. 

They were eating cotton candy. Hence the blue teeth. 

Brian took an awesome picture of Kim, but since she threatened to dis-own us if we shared it with anyone, I better not post it.

Marcus even got to be a ball boy that evening.

Shelby sure LOVES her kitty cats. Our two mama cats each had a litter within a week of each other. One had 4, the other had 5. We have given 5 away so far. 

Last but surely not least, 

 Last Thursday Brian took the day off so we could all go to my ultrasound together. The doctor was checking out the baby then we saw something and he said "Oh, well there is something you guys have never seen before". Sure enough, its a boy!

Shelby wants a girl and doesn't really accept the fact that it won't be one. Rian wants to name him Rian Jr. Kenni wants him named Nugget, and Graci Chocolate Man. We have yet to make a decision. 

I wanted to announce it in a cute way and while we were at our friends house here in town, I noticed they have a clothes line in their beautiful yard. It was the perfect setting.

After the ultrasound we went to lunch then took the kids to see the Avengers. It was a fun day. 

The rest of the weekend we have been busy with rock walls and digging a trampoline hole. In lots of wind. The same neighbors with the pretty yard, lent us their backhoe and they also spent the day with us helping out on the walls. It was much appreciated.

The last week of May Brian spent a few days in Texas for work. He only took a few pictures but I will have to put them on.
