Memorial Weekend

We had such a fun Memorial Weekend. It's always nice for Andy to have off work and the kids to have off school. Reid also had his last day of Preschool on Wednesday, which was so fun! I've been teaching a ton lately, trying to hit 45 classes for the month so I get the extra $.50/class bonus, but I am going to hit it which is great! That doesn't mean I'm not tired though...

Ruby was in the bath, and Miles wanted to join, so he just got in, clothes and all.

 Ruby and Reid like to make an "A."

 Last day of Preschool! Miles loved the cars.

 Reid is super fast on the trikes and the twisty cars.

 They loved the bouncy house!

 Then shared a car ride but didn't quite fit.

 So Miles filled the gas tank instead.

 Reid is so sweet. <3 He loves to give hugs and kisses.

 Getting his real diploma from Mrs. Nolan (the one from the graduation was a fake).

 Ruby played a great t-ball game on Wednesday! She's getting pretty good.

 High fives at the end of the game.

 The boys and I made a three layer strawberry cake on Thursday to take to some friends' house. Don't be alarmed, this sugar bag is actually empty. Haha! The cake turned out delicious! It was our friends who host our home community, and they were letting us know that they are finding a new church that is closer by. We're in the same boat, we'll probably be looking for a closer church soon. We're really sad to be leaving Imago, but it will be so nice to not have to drive across the city, and also to be able to do evening things at church. We're sad to be done with our home community though!

 We got out the train tracks this week. We've been having to do trains without bridges though, or else Miles knocks them down.

 Friday night we rented Mary Poppins Returns. The big kids loved it! Miles went to bed. :)

 Reid got all dressed in warm stuff and packed his bags so he could go to Alaska!

 After nap on Sunday we all went to the park!

 We invited our neighbors and had a ton of fun. The girls were good at swinging.

 Reid and Caleb played pirates.

 Morning FaceTime with Grandma Debbie!

We all started a family workout program! It's called Transform:20 and it is ridiculous... but it's only 20 minutes so it's doable! Ruby loves it. 

 We met a bunch of the Pullen for a hike on Memorial Day in the morning. Frances and Miles were so cute.

 We hiked in Washington Park and ended up at the Rose Garden. Ruby and Penelope have almost the exact same hair.

 This was my favorite rose! So beautiful.

This was Ruby's favorite, it looked like it was painted.

Then we walked to the park and had so much fun! These three...

Reid's Preschool graduation and two weddings!

Reid graduated Preschool! It was so cute. They had a little performance and then he got his diploma. He had such a fun year, and one of his friends there will even be in Kindergarten next year with him at Terra Linda!

 This is our fish Archie, he's so beautiful!

 We watched a lot of basketball with the Blazers in the playoffs. Reid was stalling for his bath... Haha!

 I walked Ruby to school to help out at the book fair.

 Then Miles and I went to Jiffy Lube, which he liked.

 And I took the boys to Les Schwab!

 Here's Reid all dressed up for his graduation. He's so handsome!

 Walking in.

Singing! 

 Reid getting his diploma from Mrs. Nolan. We'll sure miss her until Miles is in Preschool in a few years!

 The after party...

 Ruby found two of her friends from when she was in Preschool!

 Then on Saturday morning we headed south for my cousin Nate's wedding in Grants Pass. We like to pack a lunch and stop at a rest area.

 Nap time in the car... unfortunately it was very short (like 30 min) which made for a hard afternoon/evening.

 We went down to Cindy's house then we all went back to Grants Pass for some In-n-Out before the wedding.

 The wedding was out at this beautiful farm. I've never seen a white peacock before!

 Ruby had fun with her second cousin Jon. Unfortunately it was raining through the whole wedding!

 We all got pretty soaked.

 Lots of umbrellas.

 Cutie pie Reid. He had lots of questions about weddings.

 Nate and Ari!

 After the reception we got the kids' jammies on and they fell asleep in the car on the way back to Cindy's. Miles actually slept really well in their pack n play that night! Much better than he did at Christmas, which was the last time we've gone somewhere overnight with the kids.

 In the morning we played a bunch. Ruby and Lia had fun with dress up dolls.

 Family picture time! Just missing Randall and Sophie.

 By lunch time Miles was getting reeeeeeally sleepy.

 After lunch we headed north and stopped at another rest area. Then we got to Salem and ate some dinner at Costco and changed into our wedding clothes...

 ...and made it in time for the wedding of one of our former students. Whew! It was another late night and we finally made it home at about 9.

 The big kids both had school the next day. Miles was SO tired when we went grocery shopping. What a week! We're all still recovering from the lack of sleep.
