Children's Museum Field Trip

      This June marked my very last preschool field trip to the Children's Museum, Hallelujah!!  The first time was fun, the second okay, but the 3, 4 & 5th time ... Ugggh!  But my boys enjoy it, and if I didn't take them I would feel like the worst Mother ever, so I endure.  Andrew, on the other hand, only wanted to go so he could hang out in the gift shop.  I found that out once we got there.  He literally could care less about any of the exhibits, he was dead set on buying something in the gift shop.  I couldn't believe it.  That made for a short field trip, which sadly I was okay with.  I loved spending time with just Andrew though.  He is such a great little companion.

 

Class of 2013

      Being able to attend Megan's graduation from high school was a real treat!  I knew this was going to be a big night for her.  She was invited to honor her Leadership teacher, which was a surprise to him, and I knew she was really excited about it.  In our high school one member of the graduating class is awarded the Rutherford Cup for "Outstanding Senior".  When the school principal started describing this years recipient, I kept getting more and more excited that it was being awarded to Megan.  This person serves in Leadership.  Yes.  This person volunteers in SHINE.  Yes.  This person will attend BYUI in the Fall.  It's her!!  I could hardly sit still.  And I was so proud of her in that moment when she was called up to receive her award.  She was also the recipient of three (3!) $1,000 scholarships during their senior awards night, just prior to graduation.  How awesome is that!?  She is one amazing young woman!!  And while I know she is off at college having the time of her life, and is where she is supposed to be, I can't help but miss her dearly and wish she was still here.
