Necia is 6 Months!

 Here is our baby...eating her first rice cereal...she wasn't sure about it!
 She kept looking at me like 'what is this stuff?'
 Here are just a couple pictures of her...obviously some are better than others!

 Her shirt is soaked because she won't stop drooling...teething we keep saying, but she has been at this for 2 months now and no sign of teeth yet!
 We sure love our little cutie pie...what a blessing to our family!

Annicha's Choir Concert

 This is Annicha and Mrs. Werre (Mrs. Werre at school-its Shelby everywhere else, she was in the young single adult ward when we first met her).  She was not only Annicha's school teacher but the school choir director as well...Annicha got to spend a lot of time with her this year!
 This is after their last choir concert...Annicha loves to sing!
 Yes, just to annoy the rest of us she sings opera style as well!  She did a great job in choir.  They went early to school twice a week all year long.  They performed a couple times for the school, but at Christmas they had a couple community concerts as well.

Family Picnic

 We had a family picnic at the local airport up the road from our home.  They have beautiful pavilions, a nice grassy area and a play set for younger kids.  There are two great benefits- no one really knows about this place and you get a close up of the planes taking off and landing!
 Here is Cheyenne soaking up the sun, while Connor prefers to sleep any time he can.
 Here is Boston heading over to play with Joran -he is above the slide.
 Annicha and Joran.
 Maren sliding.
 Annicha and Joran again.
 Maren
 Me, Boston, Maren and Jeff
 Necia helping herself-it was empty really!
 Connor riding Joran's bike.

 Joran loves to ride his bike...lucky for us the airport has some paving in the back by the playground.
 Here are a couple of Necia playing on the grass with daddy.


 It was a fun and relaxing afternoon!

Boston's 6th Grade Graduation-Awards Night

 Here is Boston with Mrs. Clark-he had her for a year and a half (they split his class part way through this year and he was lucky enough to move into her class!)
 Here he is with his Peer Leader award
 He is holding an entire packet of awards in this one, attendance, 21 seals (they earn a seal for accomplishing different things through the year), and ribbons and pins that went with the seals.
 He also received the Presidential award and a pin for his testing scores...the best was the Citizenship award!  This is only awarded to a couple students in the entire grade.  He earned it for going above and beyond in kindness and including others, helping out and being a great young man!  Way to Go Boston-can't believe you will be in Junior High next year!

Math Science Olympiad

 Here is Boston at the Math, Science Olympiad.  He competed in Tile Trials-it is a math game.  Here he is with his partner Jake-they took 3rd place!  Way to Go!
 Annicha and Zach competed in the barges...they build a boat out of foil and then you add pennies until it sinks...they were so close to placing! Nice effort guys!
