The week from hell

Enough said!

The good Lord gives us strength in Him and duct tape. :-)

Time for some vaca!

Fathers Day week

The kids had vacation bible school all week. Justin was actually a teacher in the preschool class and received many rounds of thanks from the ILSW staff.

Been having some dental issues. Blah!

We have started hauling in stone for the pool retaining wall. 16,000lbs hand carried. :-)

Vika's birthday, she turned 6

Great weekend.

Dr Amy spent the weekend in Chicago for continuing education.

Started Friday by hauling stones home for the new wall expansion project. Only 5 more pallets to go.. (20,000lbs)

We worked around the house all weekend in her absense. Got tons done in the basement, while Grant worked onstaining the deck.

Monday morning is the begining of VBS where Justin is volunteering and Vika is attending.

Sunday afternoon we spent the day at Gma Fridleys house from bday celebrations.

Birthday party weekend!!

Where to begin? How about with haircuts! Justin and I were finished fairly quickly. Somebody however was getting her hair cut and styled. :-)

Sat morning I went flying. Still trying to finish up my instructors certificate. We will get there someday!

After flying I meet up with the family. I was picking up supplies at Lowes and found the buy of the day. Someone had returned a custom counter top and it was being sold for $33 on the clearance pile. It looks real nice!

Saturday night we headed out for dinner with Disney buddies Marc & Amy. That taxi driver will never forget us!

Sunday we had Vika's 6th birthday party. Turned out great. We had a bowling party and the kids had a blast!

Godmother Melanie's wedding

Spent the weekend in Beautiful Grafton Illinois for Godmother Melanie's wedding. Golfed, Raging Rivers water park and ended by taking the ferry back home.

Last days of school!

Where to begin... Had a super weekend... So I sent my beautiful wife flowers... :-)

Vika's last day of school was Tuesday.. No more preschool.  She is a in kindergarten now!  Wednesday I got to attend the end of the year picnic.

Before we could go to the picnic we needed fuel for our bodies..  What better way to fuel out bodies.. DONUTS

For those of you who know us,, or read the blog we are kinda Disney Junkies...

No matter where we go... We seem to attract Disney.. :-)

Grandma Fridley... came by and let me go back to work.  So Vika went home with gma after the picnic.  I think she slept for 3 hours....

This picture is out of context.. but I thought it was cute...look in Vika's left hand..  Thats a sucker she fell asleep holding it.  Im not going to even comment on the fact that its May and she is playing with a stuffed Santa Claus.

Our new friend (babysitter) came over on Thursday.  Justin still had school so Vika needed a friend to play with.  Alex is awesome! 

My boy... Justin... Last day of 6th grade!  You make me proud...

Did I mention he scored in the 90 percentile on some of his apptitude testting for math...

What a great weekend!

Friday started with our soon to be preschool graduate trying on uniforms for kindergarten at school.   Daddy's princess is getting soooo big! 

Sat was recital day for Vika. The school has 2 big shows at the high school, both sold out!!  Justin did his normal morning with Tae Kwon Do, he helped teach the yellow belts.  He and I also snuck out at intermission after Vika's performance.  I think he had seen enough dance performances.  :-)

Would like to thank...

Godmothers Allison & Melanie

Mrs Robin - Vika's teacher...
