Kavan!

My mom is patiently awaiting updates (sorry)!  I am a bit behind so I thought I would start with a Kavan update...

Kavan was the cutest fish ever in his school play. 



He was pretty excited to learn how to "handle" the trail bike all by himself!



He played soccer again and loved it!  Had a great season, a great coach, and can't wait until next season!  (I love soccer and I loved watching Kavan play.  He gets right in there - so much fun!)



He had a great school year!  They had a fun last day with a cookout, games, bubbles, and sidewalk chalk.  He told me he was going to miss his teacher, Ms. Holmes.  Ms. Holmes is a great teacher and a great person - and we are so thankful for her time and effort and all the extra things she did to make this a great year!  (She even came to watch Kavan play ball.)

Ms. Holmes has the water gun.

Ms. Holmes got Kavan!  :)


Kavan also finished up another baseball season.






He decided that baseball was a "little boring" and that he would stick with soccer - for now!  :)

Although Kavan was a little sad about school being over, I think he has adjusted to summer quite nicely!  :)

April also brought...

Lots of birthdays!!!

That "41" on top of that doughnut cake belongs to Layne!  :)  He got to celebrate his birthday with Tyler, April, Timothy, Jeremiah, Cade, and Bryant.  And we not only celebrated it once,



not just twice,




but three times!



And as you can see, Layne was once again so fast with blowing out his candles that I missed it!


We sure do love him!!! :)
