Jackson's Birthday and the rest of May

Holy cow, I am way late updating this so I honestly don't remember much about Jackson's birthday. I can't even remember why his pancake picture is out in the kitchen and not in bed. But, little man is 3. Woot!

Donut tower for a birthday cake!

Gabby came for a visit and was here over Jackson's birthday, clearly. We went to Olive Garden to eat and our moms and sisters came too. It was fun to catch up!

The new water mat my mom got Jackson for his birthday.

The girls' dance recital was that weekend too. They all did so great and it was so fun watching them dance! I think there were two days of recitals if I remember right, Mckinley danced in 4 different numbers this time, Kallie and Ava each just had one dance. It was so much fun watching them!

Saying goodbye to Gabby with lunch at Pizza Factory! I had to show her that there are better places than Olive Garden to eat, ha ha.

We have so many pictures of Jackson sleeping! He is done with naps but still needs sleep so he crashes everywhere all the time. I love it.

Mckinley's 6th grade class, which she absolutely adored (she thrived so much in 6th grade and loved everything about it, especially her teacher, Mr. DeAdder) had a class party at Kiara's house that I got to help with. The stinking weather was freezing! But they each got to make pizzas in their outdoor pizza oven and then play in her sport court inside. No swimming.

Tyler was the 2nd fastest runner in his grade!

Mckinley and Tyler both played soccer this spring. Mckinley played on rec and it was her last chance to play, from now on she will be too old. Brandon coached her team and she improved so much!!!

Her team had a devastating loss to end their season. Some of the kids wouldn't even get in the picture and the two twin girls wouldn't even look at me for the picture! We had a party for them at our house later which they loved though. Brandon loves coaching so much!

Tyler and Kallie got two years with Mrs. Schulte (formerly Miss Davis). She is the best teacher on the planet and we just love her so much. Okay who am I kidding. All our teachers are the best teacher.

So. Many. Sleeping pictures.

Tyler's first year on a district team, they lost a lot of their games but man Tyler is so fast, how can you not love to watch him play? He is an amazing defender. He scored one goal this year that we of course missed because we came late to that game.

Mckinley had no idea (but we did!) that she was going to receive the Hope of America award at her 6th grade graduation. This girl is absolutely amazing.

6th grade graduation was long! But she was in heaven. 

Her young women crew.

Look how stinking cute she is! All grown up and so mature on the last day of school.

Had to put a pic of Dr. Bailey on here. We love him so much!

Last day of school pics. 

Last day of school slurpee tradition.

Love love love going down by the lake.

Mckinley's soccer team party. The kids were wild and crazy and in heaven!

Fun movie night with neighbors to kick off summer!
