The Host!!!



Wow!!! So, I think I may be the only Stephanie Meyer fan left that hadn't read this book weeks ago, but there you go. My friend Amber let me borrow it last week, and I really couldn't put it down. I LOVED it! Thanks Amber. What a crazy, and fascinating concept - just thought I would share the love.

Lagoon - our "once a year" thing...










Okay, so I know that most people REALLY hate Lagoon - I am usually one of those people too, but I may have changed my mind this year. We only go one time a year for Spence's work - and I actually liked it. Grady is still one of those people who hate it. It was definitely not his thing, but maybe it will be soon:) The girls loved it and there wasn't enought time to do all of the "big" rides for Kendalyn, so Spence is going to take her back soon - I know, we are totally breaking our rule, but you do what you have to do right??? Spence and I even went back that night with his brother and his wife without the kids and we had a great time. If any of you are thinking of going to that crazy, busy place soon, I totally recommend going on Wicked. It was such a great ride...

Florida



A few weeks ago, we were able to go visit Spence's parents in Pensacola Beach Florida. They are serving as mission presidents in Tallahasse Florida, but they had to be in Pensacola for a few days. We had such a great time. The beaches are so white, they are amazing. The only bad thing about it was the jellyfish in the ocean. All of the kids and Spence got stung (notice I didn't even venture in there), but they were okay and the redness went away after a few hours. So most of our time was spent at the pool and they loved it. Grandpa and Spence took the girls crabbing a couple of nights with their flashlights and they thought that was pretty cool. I'm not sure it was the most relaxing trip,(Grady played a big part in that) but we still had a fun trip...

Crazy May!!!

It was such a "Crazy" month for us in May, and I am sure I am not the only one who had tons going on with school ending, recitals, plays - soccer games - you guess it. Anyway, we had a great time even though it was busy. Kendalyn did "Disney Spectacular" for her muscial which she got to dress up like a princess and it turned out so cute. She also had her 1st Grade Graduation, which was so crowded I didn't even get to see her, but luckily Spence snagged a spot up front and got some great pictures.




Adri had her Preschool Graduation which was so cute. She goes to Miss Penny who is our neighbor and she absolutely loves it - which makes me love it. It was supposed to be a nice day, but the weather turned out to be freezing, so the kids were cold, but it was still fun. Earlier in the month, she also had a Mother's Day luncheon at Miss Penny's and they sang cute songs and fed us lunch with just our kids - it was great. So, enjoy our "crazy" month - we sure did!!!
