{What's Happening}

We have been so busy lately.  We have had something every night for weeks and we can't wait for Summer to come and rescue us!!  I don't pack my big camera everywhere so often the happenings of our lives are in pictures on my phone.  Here are some of the things that have happened in the last few weeks.

Wyatt got all signed up for Kindergarten.  Holy Moly that makes me feel old.  He is so excited as you can imagine.  Each and everyday he asks how many more months until his birthday.  If you ask him when that magical day is he will tell you "August 15th, it's a Thursday".  Yes people we are that specific around here.  He means business.

Lauryn got to participate in her schools' International Night.  She sang a Puerto Rican song with the rest of the First graders.  She had fun and it was cute to watch.  Not saying that I could understand any of it but cute nonetheless!

The power company was in the neighborhood this last week taking down old trees.  Wyatt sat for literally an hour watching these guys cut the tree down across the street from us.  His favorite part was the chipper.  He laughed every time they put a branch in it.  He said it sounded like it was farting.  100% boy right there!!

The boys got to go on the Annual Father & Son campout.  Wyatt calls it the Brother & Son campout.  They had a great time and came back smelling like outside-wet-dog and campfire.  Yum!!  So glad my boys get to enjoy time with each other.  Love it!

While the boys were gone, the girls got to enjoy watching Meysa's school talent show.  She auditioned for it last month and was selected to play the piano.  She chose to play "God be with you till we meet again".  She found it was one of the simplified hymns that she could play and it was the closing song at her Uncle's funeral so it had special meaning.    It stood out among the Justin Beiber/Taylor Swift/Bruno Mars songs that were sung, repeatedly.  It was refreshing and I think she did a great job.  Afterward we went and indulged in frozen yogurt to celebrate a job well done!!

It wouldn't be Spring baseball if there wasn't a rainy game.  I can't count how many games I have watched sitting in the rain.  Thankfully it wasn't too bad.  Ayden is having a great season and the girls have decided that they want to play next Spring now.  Yeah!

Wyatt finished his soccer season.  He had such a great time learning to play.  He was pretty aggressive and scored often.  He was most excited about his medal that Coach Rocky gave him after his last practice/game.

 At Ayden's baseball game the other night Wyatt was a little sweaty.  His Mohawk is styled entirely by his own sweat.  We are resourceful around here.  It was a muggy night for sure.  Just a precursor of the summer ahead.

So there you have it.  A little run down of the random things going on around here.  We are off to Gettysburg today to spend the weekend soaking up some history!!  We are camping and we are really excited to get out of town for a few days!!
