Birthdays.. and last day of school

June has started with a bang. The children's last day of school was the 5th, an extra bonus to Cassie's Birthday this year. Emeline graduated from the 5th grade and will join Micah at the middle school in the fall. We are excited and nervous all at the same time!
 Congrats Emy!

 We take a picture here every year at the beginning of the school year and I remembered to take one at the end of the year..

 Cassie wanted to decorate her cake this year. She is still at the age where more is better than less. There was a lot of candy on that cake, but it was yummy!

 Hannah's birthday was quick to follow, she helped put the sprinkles on her butterfly cake. 

 gifts of course...

 trent is limiting his sugar intake these days and so for his birthday his special treat was a bowl of grapes... he also picked dinner since Hannah picked the dessert. The kabobs were great!!
 Normal for our birthday weekend we go camping. The week got away from us and we were not ready to go, so we took a day trip to Elk Creek and went hiking instead. We were luck the water levels were relatively low so we got to walk on the rocks, which led to playing in the water. It was the first time in years I was not prepared for the children to get wet. within minutes of walking on the rocks all the children were wet from the neck down. I guess that teaches me.. we got lucky and a group of college students there lent us a towel for the shivering little girls.

 It is so hard to get a picture with Micah in it lately I asked him to please let me take on of him. He obliged  this was after several goofy pictures...

Well, Summer is underway at our house... we'll have to see where it takes us next.
