vacation

on Thursday we head out on our vacation to the Tetons!  I am excited!  I think no one is more excited than Alex though he has had a count down for a while!  This is really our only vacation this summer.  We are going to idaho for matt's wedding in july but we wont really be doing much sight seeing that will mostly be just get up there do wedding stuff and come home!  It should be fun though anyway!  I have never traveled for a wedding before!=0)  We have a lot planned though anyway for the summer just around town!  We want to take a trip to the zoo and go to Kennecott for a tour!  Hopefully we can get in a few trips to the pool too!  Then we have holidays and birthdays in july!  For the holiday's i am making paige a dress!  I am really excited about it!  It is the cutest fabric!  I am really excited for brett's birthday he turns 30 this year!  He really doesn't want a party but i have something else planed.  I don't think he like it either but i think he'll hate it less than a party!  I don't think he's to excited to be 30!  That's pretty much our whole summer in a nutshell! :)

:)

Today is Alex's birthday he is 6 years old!  I can't believe how fast time goes by!  I feel like it was just yesterday that he was born!  He is the sweetest kid that i know he takes such good care of his siblings i love to just sit and watch him be the best big brother in the world!  We have had a lot of fun today even though it hasn't been the best weather.  For his birthday he got some water balloons and sidewalk chalk and a new scooter!  The weather was nice for enough time today to ride his scooter and play with a few water balloons but when he went to try out the sidewalk chalk it started to rain so he had to come in!  On Wednesday we are going to have cake and icecream with grandparents and then Friday we will be having a party with his friends!  He has been really excited about the party!

Last friday alex graduated from kindergarten!  It was so much fun!  they did a really cute program!  After we went to mc donalds for lunch and then we went bowling.  Alex really liked bowling.  He did pretty well too!  Paige lost intrest about half way through the first game.  We also played some of the arcade games they have there!  Then we went to Check out the new JoAnn's store and discovered  that it's not really a fun place for kids but i did get some super cute fabric to make paige dress for the 4th of july!  Then we went to home depot and got a push mower (something we should have gotten 6 years ago when we first moved in)  Then Brett and I we exhausted.

These last few months have been very busy and have worn both Brett and me out!  It has been fun though.  Alex has been playing T-ball again this year his team is the orioles.  It has been a lot of fun to watch his games!  Next year he will be able to do machine pitch.

We have so much planned for this summer i am so excited!
