Relay for Life

Relay for Life was held last night in Grand Forks. It's always so touching to me to see all the bags. I'm especially touched and brought to tears by the teams that sponsor children who are victims/survivors of cancer. A student from the high school where I work passed away this year after a battle with cancer. It was unbelievable to see all the bags purchased in her honor and to see so many of the students from our school there to support the cause. Teenager always amaze me! Here a just a few pictures from the evening...

Family Get-Together

On Saturday of this past weekend, Brian's family celebrated his Aunt Bea's 80th birthday by having a family reunion/get-together at a local park. This is a picture of Brian and his Dad, Ernie. Technically, I know there is a ton wrong. But it has a lot of sentimental value and I'm so thrilled to have a picture of the two of them together!

Last Day of School

The girls all had a terrific last day of school on Friday! Kate was very sad that Kindergarten was over and cried the whole way home. All three girls had a great year - we are very lucky to have had fantastic schools and teachers!

Fun!

I was lucky enough to be able to take pictures of these two (neighbor kids) playing in their backyard. They were a lot of fun and enjoyed sharing their icees with Kate! We had a great time!

A Night at Soccer

Scenes from soccer tonight. It was a really beautiful night! Hard to believe our Spring soccer season is over this Saturday. The past few weeks have flown by!

Abby

This kid amazes me. I'm so proud of how she is always willing to try something new. She works really hard at many things and although I know there are times she is just exhausted, she rarely gets in a bad mood or takes it out on us. She is a terrific big sister. It has been so fun to see her grow and mature - especially over the last year. It will be so exciting to see what else is in store for her in the future! I know that she is really excited for summer and having a little bit of time to relax and unwind.

End of the Day

Took these along our "greenway" after a day full of activities. The setting sun was so pretty!
