Art Class

Julia and Ethan attended an art class this week at UVU. They had one last week in American Fork, but they liked this one better. I was very impressed by the projects they did. Today as part of the class, they put on an art show. Each of the students presented one of the projects, explaining the inspiring artist and what they did.

Now We are Six

When I was One,
I had just begun.
When I was Two,
I was nearly new.
When I was Three
I was hardly me.
When I was Four,
I was not much more.
When I was Five,
I was just alive.
But now I am Six,
I'm as clever as clever,
So I think I'll be six now for ever and ever.

Little Miss "I can't swim"

Julia and Ethan have been begging to go swimming since they came, but Julia has been saying she hopes the pool has life jackets because she doesn't know how to swim. We know full well, she can and has swam just fine. So today after art class we met up with Angela and family including her daughter Gabby who Julia has played with before and we went swimming. Little Miss "I can't swim" and took off to play and then I saw her climbing the slide. Here is the video I got. She went over and over again and loved it. I know if I couldn't swim, I wouldn't dare go down a 40 ft slide...

Ethan hung out in the kiddie pool too had a great day!

Singin' In the Rain

Last Monday we went and saw Singin' in the Rain. It is such a fun musical with some great songs! It was fun to listen to the kids singing after the show!

JC Leaves for Scout Camp

The first week with Julia and Ethan in Utah was very busy and a lot of fun. There were several events that we wanted to participate in and they all seemed to take place last week. We'll be posting pictures as we can, but decided to start catching up by taking on part to of the weekend and this morning.

Today J.C. left for Scout Camp at 7:00 am this morning. He was very excited. We hope he has a great week!

Oh Brother!

This week Julia and Ethan will be coming to Utah. We are excited for them to come and love watching the 3 kids interact. Below are the boys making faces last summer.

NO TRAINING WHEELS!

Julia and Ethan both decided that June 1st was the day that they would conquer training wheels and they blew them out of the road! They both did awesome and haven't even fallen once! I was able to catch short video's on my phone, hopefully they work!
