Boom it's JUNE

Dropped the older 3 at Syringas on our way home from Vegas for half a week so they could go back to Vegas for Zaleah's blessing.  So I could start the month at the Kelly Girl weekend.  This year it was decided that we should hold a yard sale of our own.  I took a van full and came home just as full.  It was more of a swap meet for us at the end.  A successful yard sale is $100 and 10% gone.  We all did good.  It was a lot of work but it's always fun to get together and talk and laugh.  Jamie took the prize for the weekend.  Maybe the rest of ever. Instantly infamous. :)  The next weekend we made a day trip to the Kelly's for their ward camp out. We went to the Swinging Tree.   A 50 year old cable hooked to a leaning tree on the side of a steep hill ---nervous....Nah.  Tried it once. Nearly broke my leg on the landing. But the kids had fun and no one ate it too bad.   Memories right.  

Which brings us half way through the year and to a VERY special birthday.  Katana Kelly turns 8.  wow really cannot believe she is getting so old. Loves Tuna. Still hates Bacon. Wants to do her own hair. Loves her little sister.  Wears lip gloss to church. A coat when it's below 75 out.  Diligently brushes her teeth and collects rocks and shells.  She got to pick out her baptism dress and got a big set of scriptures. Her requested rainbow teddy bear cake threw me. Nailed it.  Found some random screen shots this week from 2015 that hit me. How fast they grow and change.  Man I love my kiddos.   I got Mom's old  steam cleaner from Syringa.  Hailing and cussing her at the same time. 2 days to clean the grout in my kitchen. Looks  Amazing. forgot we did tan not black lines. oops.  Then not sure it was working I tested it on my foot.  YUP works. 
*asked Mace to lay by Zara till she fell asleep.  He made it 5 min.  Her blue eyes never closed.
