May...

May basically went like this: Mother's Day, Moab, Recital, End of School, Memorial wknd...

It all went so fast they all seem like a lifetime away but really, it was just a month ago!


Marin's dance recital is something she looks forward to all year long. She loves to dance and she loves her friends!



This little sister just can't wait till recital is all about her...

We had great support at the recital like always. Grandparents from Salem and North Ogden came and Uncle Scott, just before he headed off to Fort Leonardwood.


Last Day of Kindergarten. Jace loved his class, teacher and especially being able see some of his best friends everyday!


For Memorial Weekend we headed to Jackson Hole and saw some wildlife...


And hit the Alpine slides. This was Marin's first year to do it alone...


Not exactly a success. Sorry sis, you have inherited your mother's wussyness...


But Jace and Macey seemed to love it!


I kept hearing Jace yell, "Faster, Faster!" I don't think they could have...


Macey was a fan!


So thankfully the next few attempts had much better results...




SUCCESS!

Moab in May...

In May we headed to Moab with a bunch of Matt's family. It was so fun, words can't even express. We LOVE this place and it is for sure going to be an annual trip!


On our way to Double O Arch...



Ryan and Jace getting ready for some serious hiking...


We have the best cousins: Regan, Maya, Abbie and Graycee all helped the younger kids with out even being asked...







It was a bit windy on this day, so we had to hold some of the smaller kids from flying away off the ledges (aka Jace, not an ounce of fat on this kid!)


We made it! We also brought our two nieces Havi and Teah whose mom was just about ready to have baby #4, infact, she had her the day we got back~


Most of the crew!


Melissa, Matt, San, Amy, Michelle and Leisel...


What do we love about Moab? The Food (Pasta Jay's is on my alltime fave list!), the family memories and just how tired we get at the end of every day! It's fantastic!


And yes, a restaurant really will sit this many people....


Plus all these, together!


Before heading out, we decided to get in one more hike...







Double Trouble...



This was a high and hard spot to get to, but they made it!


This was taken right after that last picture, Havi was NOT happy about not being able to make it up there...


This boy was our Spiderman. No height or slickrock intimidated him!It was a much needed trip. So much fun, so much to remember and so much I didn't even touch on, but you get the idea.
