Asher's Ice Cream Birthday Party

Tammy hosted an ice cream picnic for Asher's birthday party. It was super fun and one of the few warm days we had at the beginning of summer. 

Pierce was rocking his outfit and nibbling off plates as he prowled around.

Jayden was rocking her shades and sipping on some pear juice.

Anna demolished her ice cream cone. I have never seen a child enjoy ice cream quite that much. 

Anna & Ethan

Melinda was lucky enough to be smeared with Anna's ice cream face. 

Ethan played in the mini pool until he tipped over and dove in face first.

Happy Birthday Asher!

Spencer had a blast building a sand castle. Super fun.

A Blessed Event

May 8th Jayden was dedicated at Nampa First. My family and Steen's parents came up to be there in support. It was an awesome time to be together and to continue a faith based tradition.

Friday Nights

It is 5:06 pm on Friday and I just got home. I cleaned my classroom and put together a packet for the sub I will have on Monday and now it is time to relax... just as soon as I:

• do the dishes
• take out the trash
• get some groceries
• email my mom some info.
• read with Spencer
• help him with homework
• go to the home football game

How is it that our to-do lists never seem to get any smaller, no matter how many items we check off?

Woot woot Bulldogs, nice comeback!! (9/26)
