Disney Cruise '16

Hands down our best Disney cruise yet. The weather was absolutely amazing, the kiddos were absolutely the most perfect ages to enjoy each club/activity, and every one of us had absolutely the most amazing week of rest, relaxation, and memory making fun!   

Awesome April

While the weather is beautiful here in sunny NC the temperatures are not quite hitting "swimming pool" worthy. They have however hit perfect running, park playing, kite flying, lemonade stand selling, chalk town temperatures, in which we have taken full advantage of. We also enjoyed our second annual Easter "shvliking" contest with our good friends from church and hit a few family milestones with Ryley attending her first LDS Prom and Azure attending her "Kindergarten Here I Come" Day. If those two events weren't enough to make us feel old, Steven and I both added another year to our youthful ages. Ending the month on a perfect note, the kiddos rocked their music recitals and Kadyn (with her good friend Madalyn) won 3rd place in their state science olympiad competition Write It/Do It. It was a full and fulfilling April.

Days Of March

March is always full of random happenings that don't necessarily require a long post but indeed
require acknowledgment. One of our Christmas presents came due to experience and we absolutely loved the amazing "Lion King" musical. Kadyn's hard work this school year with Science Olympiad and her civic orientation speech paid off. She took home a gold and silver for her two competitions in science and won second place for her speech on "Hunger in America". Our stake gave roadshows a try this year and the three older kiddos had a great experience taking part in our wards awesome play entitled "Girls Camp". And last but not least, March is filled with random holidays including National Pi Day and St. Patrick's Day, which of course I couldn't let pass without celebrating in a small way.
