Our little Charlotte turned five today. (Her friend Ivy is two and a half. )  We love our spunky girl!

Beautiful Night in Provo

Chloe's Prayer

"Please bless that we'll have a good time at Disneyland next year. And please bless that I'll be able to understand my French teacher when she speaks French and that I'll have a good time at school when school starts. And please bless that we'll have a good time watching videos tonight and that we won't whine for more because we do that every night."

- Chloe, 6 yrs old.

Our First Week of Summer Vacation

Outside the Marriott ticket office to get tickets to The Selfish Giant.

Tuesday found us at the library doing the Make and Take craft.

Then all of a sudden this happened.

The completed rocket launchers.

 Coloring at the library.

Wednesday we went hiking to the Y (well, almost).

We did some of this.

And a lot of this.

Charlotte having a snack, and a heart-to-heart, with Kitty.

At the duck pond near the Bell Tower.

Finally getting to see the performance of The Selfish Giant.

He needed a lot of people to help him walk around.

Kindergarten Grad

Chloe had a great year of school as a kindergartener! She loved her teacher and classmates and did really well in her schoolwork. She enjoys reading "Elephant & Piggie" books, "Amelia Bedelia" books, and lots of others. She also lost three teeth throughout the year.

First day of school:

Last day of school:

She won an award for Math:

Twinkle Toes

Charlotte had a 6-week ballet class this spring and loved it! Here she is with her teacher on the last day. She had a wonderful teacher! It worked out nicely to take Charlotte to her class twice a week while Chloe was in school. I love my girls!
