June, already?!

I seriously can’t believe we’re halfway through the year.  I still think it’s spring…maybe because the weather was chilly for awhile.  We had a fun May with my mom in town, Mike’s parents in town, Madi’s end of year preschool program, our anniversary, my birthday, and mother’s day.  May is always a big month around here! 

The other day while I was cooking dinner the kids were playing quietly upstairs.  Madi snuck up behind me in the kitchen and totally scared me.  When I turned around, she was dressed like this:

Haha, it totally made me laugh!  I guess she found out where I keep the Halloween costumes :) 

A week or so ago was the ward campout.  It was a COLD weekend!  We all went up for the evening and dinner, but Mike and Max stayed the night.  It was so windy that night and I couldn’t sleep because I was so worried about them being cold.  When Kiley and I went up the next morning to meet the guys there,  Mike said it all went great!  They slept good and thankfully they didn’t freeze!

He was SO excited to sleep in the tent and be up there with “the camping boys” as he kept saying :)

Madi LOVED going to preschool.  It was sad because on the way home she started crying :(.  She just kept saying, “but I’m going to miss school so much…”.  She’s already excited to go back in the fall to the “big kid school”.  I’ve tried explaining to her that it’s the same school building but the bigger kids class.  Hopefully she gets that so she’s not disappointed!

While I was doing dishes one morning Max made himself a nice little bed on the coffee table.  Oh, and he’s following Elmo’s advice and pointing to his nose.  Good boy!

Madi is such a girly girl!  I told her I wanted to take a picture of her doing one of the poses from her dance class, but she was sad because she thought her hair wasn’t pretty enough for a picture.  Because it was in a messy bun instead of a “long ponytail”.  Haha, what am I going to do with her when she’s a teenager?!  She’s pretty dramatic, but I love it and wouldn’t have it any other way :)

Here are a couple of videos of songs from her program

Here is a little trick that Madi taught herself.  She was very proud!  It’s a “legs crossed summersault” :)
