Well Father's Day wasn't the best this year. Both of my girls got very sick. So instead of happy smiling faces and nice relaxing day for Bryan it was high fevers and barf. I was able to make him his special dinner, however Kate barfed 1 hour later. So this weekend will be a fun day with dad and hopefully no one gets sick! I like the idea of a second chance at having a fun and relaxing day with the best dad ever. Or the way Kate says it "You're my very special Dad!" We love you Bryan and I hope this time around you will see just how much!

Well today was the last day of school for Kate. She has loved school so much. She is my good reader, she doesn't need any help anymore. I can't believe how much she has grown up. She had a great teacher, she was perfect for Kate. She was very structured and sweet with the kids, in that order too. I love Kate so much, she is my sweet and very helpful little girl. The best part of the day was reading the comments on her report card from her teacher. It said "Kate has past expectations for Kindergarten and is VERY ready for 1st grade". Kate also got the rest of her stuff that she did through out the year and my favorite was a paper that said "If I had 100 dollars I...." then they had to write and finish the sentence. Kate's said "I would buy a video game". Man I love this girl. She loves school and I hope it last for a very long time. I hope she gets her brother and sister excited to learn also.


Congratulations Kate!!

This past weekend all of my brothers and sisters where is town. My youngest sister Jodee went through the Sacramento Temple. Why this was so special was because my sister has prader-willi syndrome and we didn't know if she would live past 21. Having every single sibling in the Temple was so great, the spirit was so strong. I miss them all ready. We are having a big family reunion this August with spouses and kids, it's going to be big!
