4th of July
We had a great 4th this year. Unfortunately, Dan had to work but at least he got to come and have dinner and watch the fireworks with us. We started our day very early with breakfast at church. The kids brought their bikes and decked them out with Patriotic flare for our annual bike parade. We all had a great time but by 9:30 we were already melting so we headed home to cool off. After a quick rest and cooling off we headed to lunch and then to go bowling with my Brother and Sister's families. We had an incredible time. After bowling we went to my Brother's house for swimming, dinner and then the fireworks. It was the perfect day!

June
June was a crazy, where did the time go, type of month. Christian's last day of school was June 3rd so we have been really busy doing lots of fun things. Highlights of June were Father's Day, Camping with the Scouts, Bowling, Swimming, Shows at the Library and of course the Bruins winning the Stanley Cup Finals. I don't remember there ever being a month that time went by so quickly before, I guess the saying is true Time really does fly when you are having fun!
Dan's Dad and Step Mom sent us Bruin shirts and hats to wear during the finals. We were so excited to support our team!
Ryan totally got into hockey this season. He loved watching the games with Dan and during the intermissions they would pull down our little hockey game and play around. He loves to talk about the Bruins getting two trophies and how they are the champions it is really cute.
Our first bowling trip of the summer was a total success, we had to so much fun and Megan even tried bowling a couple of times. We will definitely be doing that again before the summer is over.
One of the Library Shows we went to was wild animals and Christian got picked to hold a snake. He totally loved it.
Since Dan has started working with the Young Men at church he has gotten to go on a couple camp out with them. In June they were camping out at the Inland Empire 66's stadium which is a AAA baseball team in the area. So he took Christian and Ryan with him and they got to walk in a parade before the game. Then they enjoyed the game and once the game was over they got to set up their tent. It was a great evening.
Ryan was getting pretty cold so he decided to wear his jacket and Sara's jacket.
After the game they got to set up their tents on the field and then watch Toy Story 3 on the jumbo tron. Ryan said it was so cool!
Christian saw a ball caught in the net after the game so he wanted to get it down. Well a little girl told him to throw his shoe up to get the ball out and of course he got his shoe stuck instead of getting the ball down.
The Boys getting their breakfast hot chocolate and donuts!

May
So in order for me to get caught up I have decided to do the whole month all together. May was an amazing month. It started with Megan's Birthday then we celebrated Mother's Day. Mother's day was really perfect I was totally spoiled and loved hanging out with my family. We also had a Family Night Out for Christian's school where we went Roller Skating. It was quite an experience. Christian had a hard time getting use to it but once he figured it out he had a blast. Ryan and Megan also gave it a go but didn't have much luck. It was a really fun night out. Also in May Christian joined his school track team. He loves to run and did really well on the team. He got picked for two events, the first was the 50 yard dash and the second was a a quarter of a mile relay. He came in 5th place for the 50 yard dash and then he and 3 of his friends came in 1st for the relay. I left Megan with my Sister in law since it was a 3 hour track meet so I got to really enjoy just watching Christian run. Also in May we celebrated Memorial Day. Again we went to the Cemeteries to put flowers on my families head stones. We went on Sunday this year since Dan had to work on Memorial day but it was still nice to go remember and honor my family who has passed away. Also in May Megan decided to start helping me out with everything. She now mops, sweeps, vacuums and does dishes. It is really cute, May was a fun month!
Getting ready to run his first race. He false started at first so then he didn't get a good start the second time since he was worried of false starting again.
So tired after his first race.
Ryan keeping himself busy while we waited for Christian to run again.
This is Christian receiving the baton in the relay race.
