Always Playing Catch Up...

It's hard to keep up with anything at all right now. This is the only thing we seem to be doing right now:

Yep, Alex started his own internet store and then "conveniently" gave it to me to take care of. So, far so good...

So, this one post should be at least 3 or 4 posts, but it's going to get all lumped together, to make it quicker.

First, I went on another fieldtrip with Ally's class. This time we went to the Dinosaur Museum in Lehi.

These were my three kids to watch.

This is Ally's whole class with her teacher Mrs. Eldrege.

It was a lot of fun... and why did Ally have so much fun??? Because of course she was with Ashley.

(these two are in school all day together, then come home and play together until 6 o'clock... spend their weekends together... gotta love bff's!)

Here's Devin doing what he does best:

(getting into EVERYTHING!)

Ally' school had a carnival last weekend, so we went there.

Ally had fun doing everything, but Devin didn't like the "rides", but he did love playing on the playground.

Last Saturday we went to the school playground agian. Alex and Ally played soccer and Devin chased the ball until he got tired and played on the playground. We also went over to see the horses that border the school playground.

Ally was kicking a soccer ball in front of us on the sidewalk as we walked home from the school, when a couple of dogs came barking across the street and surrounded her. One was a pit bull and the other was a weiner dog. They were snarling and circling her. Alex ran up to her to stand them down, but not before she was bitten on the leg by the little one. The pit bull tried to bite her hand but luckily she moved too quickly. She ran back to me crying and luckily Alex intimidated them enough they ran away. Our neighbor called animal dispatch, so the police came and hauled the little dog off. The dogs belong to our neighbor's across the street and this is the 3rd instance where they have bitten someone. They have lost all animal priveleges for 10 years. The police took pictures of Ally's leg and we had to fill out a report. I wish I would have got a picture too, but she has a gigantic bruise on her leg. Poor girl!

Finally, the second graders put on a performance for the parents on May 18th. It was probably the best one I have ever been to. The kids knew the songs, and the actions, they had a slideshow with pictures from the last year and it was so adorable. I actually teared up a few times!

So, that should catch me up for a little while.

And to all of those that keep asking, we are still doing okay. Thanks for the love!
