May 2015

May was another wet month here in Utah, we certainly made up for our dry winter. The kids are getting better at biking, here is a paved track near our house where they can master their biking skills.


Rachel had Rome day at school in the third grade. Here she is in her Roman attire.


One weekend we decided to explore an area of Utah known as 9-mile canyon. We found a little cabin to stay in which had a wood stove in it, thank goodness because it was a cold and damp weekend. But it was worth the trip! Driving through the canyon we had many opportunities to get out and hike around to see the petroglyphs! So much ancient artwork on the rocks and caves around here, it was amazing to see.











Rachel has been thinking about getting her ears pierced for a long time, but she was too afraid of the pain. Since she did so well at the karate tournament in May we gave her the chance to get her ears pierced afterwards and she was ready to do it! How nice that Claire's will do both ears at once so the pain is over quickly. She was very brave. BTW, Carson did great in the karate tournament too!





We headed to San Diego for Memorial Day weekend to see Veronica graduate from the University of San Diego. Great job Veronica, magna cum laude even!


We decided to visit Sea World for a day while in San Diego. We had lots of fun seeing Shamu and going on rides.







Rachel was in her first play in May, done by Up With Kids, a theater group for children. They put on Frostbite, similar to Frozen, and she had lots of fun doing the performance.
