There are no great things; only small things with great love. Happy are those.

Will spent a few hours in Park City with Abba, Kate and kids while I stayed home to pack up...they hiked under ski lifts looking for treasure, swam, and shopped and the outlets!
These two were boogie dancing in the Jeep:)
The kids made thank you cards for their school teachers with friends - we were so fortunate to have amazing teachers this year who really loved our kids. We loved them right back and this was a good chance to tell them so!

We had such an eventful day, I don't even know where to start...I don't even have pics of Dane's
Violin lesson, Liza's guitar lesson, Liza's young women's activity, treat night at Orange Leaf, or packing for the move allll day long....needless to say, the kids fell into bed!
Will and his class did a fantastic job performing their end-of-the-year program this morning! Will had two speaking/acting parts and did great! It's hard to believe he is already off to first grade (waaaa)!
Twins on their school "field day". Will stayed home with a swollen eye, so didn't get to experience it this time around, but the boys had a great time.
Kev took the twins go-cart racing and they had a blast!!

The little guys had a blast with their friends too - of the 20 kids who were there today, not one was even a pinch less than totally respectful, helpful and kind. They were an absolute delight and Mom, Dad and I were really impressed.
Liza had about 10
friends over to Papa and Abba's on Memorial Day! They were the sweetest kids, and it was fun to watch them enjoy Mom and Dads home and hospitality the way my friends and I always have.
Liza, Addie and I hiked Adams Canyon in the beautiful Sunday sun🌞
Liza and some of her friends hottubbin it up! Yes, Liza is in her clothes!
This kid can HIT! Even knocked one over our roof into the backyard!
Go Dane!

Our little soccer players had their last games of the season today and ripped it up!
Liza and friends at the park!
Jonah and I studied shrimp eggs and dog hair under the microscope -- ew!
Funny girls having a contest to see who can get the fruit tape into their mouths the fastest!
I am going to miss Will so much next year when he is in first grade and we don't have our afternoons together anymore--we loved the chalk festival on Main Street yesterday and he helped me run errands. He adds so much delight to my day - I am eating him up while I can!

So fun to have swarms of kids over today playing Legos, jumping on the tramp, and lighting sparklers - feels like summer!
Hard at work in the typing lab...
Will and I got to hit my favorite store EVER, Utah Idaho Supply, where we found kinetic sand, which kept us entertained for a long time.
In one visit to Abbas, we found a stink bug and a FISH:)
He is reading the notes! Go Jones!
Mimi and Steve are moving to California this week! Although it's a great excuse for a visit to Lake Tahoe, we will miss them so much :/

I decided to employ a pre-church energy expending mission - these handsome little men walked and biked all the way! They loved it, and sat still for our meetings - success!
Saturday soccer! It's amazing to see how much
progress the kids make, even from game to game...
As all of the kids' understanding and skill levels
deepen, the games get more and more intense -
so fun!!
