Graduation, Boondocks and potty news!

Joshua graduated from pre-school last week! Congrats Joshua!! He had such a great year and really loved going to class. He's very excited for kindergarten to begin in the fall.  

He was in a class of all boys!

Last weekend, my parents visited and took us all to Boondocks for miniature golf and games.  The kids played all sorts of games with them including mini bowling. During miniature golf, Abby kept picking up the ball and putting it into the hole....guess she was frustrated at not being able to hit it very well. LOL After golfing, Joshua got to race alone in a go-cart! He was so serious the whole time but did really well!

Here are a few pictures-

And in other news, Abby has been working really hard learning to be a big girl by using the potty. Yay!!!  She's had a great few days and really has only needed a pull-up at night. I hope she continues to do well...keep your fingers crossed for us!  She's 6 months younger than Joshua was when he potty trained!

Camping

Camping season has arrived and we took a trip to Hyrum State Park to test out the camper. :) Hopefully we will have lots of opportunities to create some fun camping memories this year.  (Many of my favorite childhood memories are from while we were camping!) The months it is actually warm enough to go camping around here are few so we have to pack it all in from about May-early Sept. It was still a bit chilly over the weekend so we didn't want to go too far into the mountains. The weather was lovely and so was the view. Nothing spectacular, but it was fairly close to home and perfect for the first adventure of the year. Bike riding, fishing, games, smores, a trip into town for yummy chips and salsa...good times. :)

This was the first time we tried fishing with the kiddos.  Their attention spans were fairly short...I think it would have been more exciting if we caught something. LOL Hopefully next time!!

Camping or not...coffee is a must!

No fish to BBQ, but the steaks were yummy!!!

Joshua and Abby LOVE their beds.  They weren't going to sleep here, just checking them out again and playing.  (We put gates up to keep them from falling out at night.)
