Welp I got a call from the school nurse that Stanley had an accident at recess and needs to go to the hospital.  Yep he needed three stitches.  It wasn't his fault, just bad timing.  He was running around on the playground and ran past someone that was flinging a medallion around their finger.  Stanley didn't see it and the kid didn't see Stanley.  Hit him right in the head.  Third time getting stitches on his head. 


He did well and was super brave!  So we went to get frozen yogurt to help make the day better.  Definitely helped!

Decided to go through pictures and review all of Stanley's head wounds.  This boy!  Please be gentle with your body.

Pinewood derby for Activity Days.  Such a fun activity!  Alex stepped up his game or as he says he has way more tools so he could do more.  McKay's car took 1st!



A super fun activity.

Field day for McKay and Stanley



Stanley was making us all nervous with a fresh head wound and all the opportunities to hit his head again.  But we made it through the day without any injuries!

This weekend was the kids big soccer tournament. 3 games each and Clifton's happen to all fall on Saturday, and McKay had one Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.  So it was a long day of soccer Saturday.
Cute cheerleaders.  They aren't always interested in the game and cheering but that night they were really into the game and it was so cute!

I should have gotten better pictures.  I am ashamed of myself especially cause this probably Clifton's last year playing rec.  He is going to do football and soccer for school (hopefully).  He has been blessed with an amazing team, great boys, awesome parents, its been great playing with them.  McKay's team was not my favorite but it didn't stop her from wanting to play again.  Next year I will make sure I get to coach her team!

In between games we went to a friends house for dinner and to visit their chickens.



I think the kids were more excited about the chickens then anything else.  A wonderful busy day!

 Preschool has come to an end!  One last preschool party and since the weather is hot we decided to end it with a pool party.




Hanging with Hazen during Stanley's therapy.  Hazen is sure growing up super fast and it is kind of hitting me that he's my last little.  I wish he could stay little longer!




We will try to soak it in as long as we can!

Pee Wee soccer has come to an end as well.  It was an amazing season!  We had a blast and sad for it to end.

Nothing super special happened this week.   Things are wrapping up as the school year is about to come to an end.  Clifton and Alex went to a stake father son camp out (Alex didn't take a single picture!) and melted in the heat all night.  But they brought ice cream to share with everyone so they had dry ice.  Alex decided to have a little science lesson with the kids at lunch time Saturday. 

He is such a good Dad!
I decided to work on our flower beds that died after another crazy cold winter for Texas.


Simple but I like it.  Hoping it grows in nicely and I can keep it alive!

 Getting back right into our crazy busy life was harder after a nice relaxing vacation.  

But getting back to dancing was fun. I love what I do and the people that join me!

Preschool my turn to teach.   The last time!  I did cars because I knew the boys would love it.




It was fun.  I sure do love these kiddos and have had a blast teaching them this year.

May the 4th be with you.  I had a sad morning when after sending kids to school got a FB memory of us all decked out for this day years ago.  I was sad I might have lost some of my fun as none of the kids were dressed for the holiday.  So Hazen and I got to work planning fun for the evening.
Star Wars dinner.
And Star Wars games...

Cinco De Mayo we got a piƱata as well to celebrate.


Friday afternoon we got to have a picnic with Stanley at school.  He read us some of the stories he wrote.  It was nice, I always love being in the schools.  However it makes me realize how behind Stanley is in school.  Its heart breaking!   But he is still trying and putting in the effort.


Saturday was full of soccer games in the morning and then Alex helped prepare for our ward BBQ.
It was nice and a good turn out.  
Then we rushed off tot he Sounders game.  


Fun to go with friends, not fun to lose and we played horrible. STID!  After the game they had a drone light show.  It was pretty impressive.



Sunday was Mother's Day!
It was a good Sunday!  We made our mom cookies and played a cahoot game all about me.  Love these kiddos and all that they teach me and help me be.
