Curren has been playing tennis all spring and now Emily has joined him in lessons. They have been working hard and Curren has a pretty good backhand now. They have fun coaches and even participated in their first tournament on Saturday. Lots of kids from school were there, which makes it even better!

Emily's ballet concert
Emily has a passion for dance. She has loved ballet this year and has decided to go twice a week. Her skills have improved so much, as a result. Our little girl has become so graceful and is a beautiful ballerina. We loved watching her dance in two different numbers. One was very special because she had a big solo! She loves being on stage, especially if she has it all to herself. She was so sad when it was over and cried herself to sleep that night! She has an amazing teacher that made the show so fun for all the dancers.

Summer bbq
To celebrate the official beginning of summer, we invited lots of friends over for dinner and fun in the backyard. Everyone brought a dish to share and food was delicious! We are thankful for good friends to share warm summer evenings with.

Hunter's last soccer game
Due to several games cancelled due to rain/snow, we finally finished the spring soccer season today! Hunter's team, the Lightning Bolts, had a great season and learned some skills, as well. I coached with Molley and Tim and it was fun working with Hunter and his friends. The boys are so cute!

Last day of school
Curren had an amazing third grade teacher and Emily's second grade teacher was the best! We are so thankful for all their hard work and dedication to their students. Thanks for a great school year!

Our little ballerina
Emily has been taking ballet classes since she was 3 years old. Now that she is almost 8, we can tell that she has made lots of progress this year. She loves her teacher and the class is small so that the girls get lots of attention. Taking class twice a week gives her sore legs, but she looks forward to it! We are looking forward to seeing her in her recital in June.

Rain gutter Regatta
This year the Cub scouts participated in the Rain gutter Regatta. This was a fun project for James and Curren to work on together. James did lots of research online to find the best/fastest design and assigned Curren the sanding and painting. Curren's boat was by far the fastest. He was thrilled! The boys were all good sports and cheered each other on. After the races, the leaders filled the gutters with ice cream for all the boys to share. They loved it.
