What better way to kick of the summer than spending a week with Grandpa and Grandma?!?!?! The boys and I drove down to Gilbert last Tuesday ready for a fun filled week with our favorite grandparents. The boys are so good in the car, we only stopped twice in six hours! Once we got to Grandpa and Grandma's,I was out of the picture, the boys wanted nothing to do with me!!! I think it is so cute the immediate bond that they form with my parents! We had a great week, I love that my parents' house is so close! We spent a lot of time at the pool, did some shopping, and ate lots of yummy food. We also went to the Aquarium, which was really cool. They had a ton of different sea creatures and a lot of fun interactive things for the kids to do. Another fun thing we did was go fishing. That's right we actually went fishing with Grandpa and Grandma. Danny takes the boys fishing all the time, and the boys thought it would be fun to bring their poles to Arizona so they could fish at the reserve by my parents house! My dad was kind enough to take the boys to see the new Shrek movie so my mom and me could have some girl time. We bought swimsuits, ate frozen yogurt, and talked/laughed a lot. Late one night my dad took charge of the boys again and my mom and I went and saw a movie together, a luxury that I was greatful for. One night we even made homeade ice cream. It was such a great trip, we hope to make at least two more before school starts up again. It is so much fun for me to watch the boys interact with my parents, the boys are totally crazy about grandpa and grandma! I love you so much Mom and Dad, you are exactly what I imagined grandparents to be!!!

Kindergarten
I can't believe it is actually summer. This year has gone by so fast. Hayden started full day kindergarten in August, with many hesitations, but it turned out to be a great year! Both he and I made some really great friends, and he really excelled in his school work. His teachers were absolutely amazing ( I already have Ace registered for their class), they totally made this year a positive experience. The last day of school ended at 1:00 but you were allowed to pick up your kid any time between 11:00 and 1:00. When I dropped Hayden off he told me to pick him up at 1:00 because he wanted to "enjoy every last minute of kindergarten!!!" The last week of school they had a program where every kid was given an award for completing kindergarten and the kids also performed a play. Both Danny and I were able to go, I am so proud of my little Hayden he is growing up so fast!
