Crazy House: May 2011

Family - My friend Dana taught us how to make sushi for FHE one night. Yummy! Went to see the Bodies exhibit at the museum. Interesting! Went to see Wicked in Boise. Awesome!

Shawn - Taught the young women in our ward to play Bocce Ball.

Lauri - Subbed a few days at the girls' school. Helped the PTO with Yearbooks, Teacher Appreciation Week and Field Day (which was inside due to inclement weather). Received sweet cards and homemade books for Mother's Day. Chaperoned the 6th grade overnight graduation party.

An artistic representation of Mom by Felicity - I think.

Felicity - Went to 7th Grade Orientation at the Middle School - so exciting! Got her immunizations updated - so NOT exciting! Participated in the 6th grade track meet in the frisbee throw. Played 2 solos in her piano recital. Played cello in the End of Year orchestra concert. Graduated from 6th grade! She and a friend were in charge of making all the diplomas for the Bridging Ceremony.

Not lovin' the shots so much ;)

The diploma Felicity and her friend designed.
She did all the calligraphy herself!

Jammin' out to some karaoke at the 6th grade sleepover.

Lydia - Had a special Mother/Daughter Activity Days activity where we played games and ate treats. Went to some physical therapy to improve rotation (supination) of her arm. Went to an appointment and discovered one of the titanium plates was broken! Had a second surgery to remove a broken titanium plate. The doctor also put a cast on her arm to hold it in semi-supination so she would have more mobility when the cast comes off. Missed her 4th Grade Idaho History performance (skit, etc.) Was not able to perform in her piano recital, but won a special award for having the most reward points (for practicing, etc.) - even with a broken arm! Performed 14 songs in a Spanish concert at school.

Before surgery...

After surgery... Like father, like daughter.
I was trying to talk to them and they were both zoned out.

She really wanted a cast - so she could get signatures. Wish granted!

An Idaho poster she made at school.

Singing for "Spanish in Concert."

Receiving her award at the piano recital - a GIANT bag of Mike and Ikes!

Just love to catch my girls snuggled up with a good book.

Evelyn - Went to her friend Bekah's birthday party. Danced a tap/hip-hop routine to Elvis' "This Thing Called Love" in the Spring dance recital. Played 1 solo at her piano recital. Gave a talk on the Restoration in primary. Graduated from 2nd grade!
