With this being the last week of school, the kids are really feeling the summer bug. They pulled out the slip and slide on Saturday and had fun swimming in the pool. I think they had the best laugh watching mom and dad on the slip and slide in their over weight, glow in the dark bodies.

Michael completed pre-school last Thursday and lets Ranse & Taylor know all the time that he is on "bacation". That's not a typo, that's how he says it. He enjoyed pre-school and looks forward to going to school again in the fall.

Ranse and Taylor are finishing off their school year with fun field trips. Both were able to go to the IMAX Theatre with their classes and loved it!! They are begging us to take them there this week to see Kung Fu Panda. I'm sure we'll end up going since I'm dying to see it too.

Ranse had an awesome first year in middle school. He excelled in all subjects and kept his average above 98% in all classes. He's a little brain and has become quite the little athlete too! He loves to play basketball, football, swim in the pool and just asked tonight if he could start a martial arts class. We'll see if we can fit that in our hectic schedules.

Taylor loved 3rd grade and did great this year too! Her teacher had nothing but great things to say about her and loved her sense of humor. She is recouping from a broken arm and is very anxious to get back to normal life. She is ready to get back on the trampoline and have her dad toss her in the pool. One of her favorite things!

Well it's time for mom to start planning some fun activities for summer bacation. If anyone has any great ideas, please pass them along:)
