Graduations

May was the month of graduations. Ruthie graduated from year 1 of preschool. Ryan asked do we really need to go to graduation for preschool when she's going to do the same thing next year? Yes!

Our graduate

With Ms Amy
The whole gang
Tate graduated from year 1 of Joy School. He should have about 4 of these before kindergarten! :)

The cute cupcakes Melanie made!

We got to pick Aunt Suzanne up from the airport and take her to the MTC!

She has graduated to Sorella Tutt

As old of news as this is...We are graduating to 3 kids around December 2!!

Arizona Reunions

We were too busy living May to blog about it! So here is our first installment of May 2010.

We spent 10 days in AZ with both of our families. Their were several trips to parks, 2 trips to the zoo and splash pad, a day of swimming, Organ Stop pizza, Suzanne's mission farewell, family pictures and lots of fabulous cousin time! Ruthie and Tate are so lucky to have cousins close to their ages in both families. My camera battery sadly died just a few days in, I had to steal pictures and I need to steal more from the Bevans when they get back from vacation.

Showing true colors

Always a happy girl

Muscles!

I don't know...

... okay!

My fav is Ruthie's corsage! Lots of cooperation from the little kids. That's about how the family pictures went too.

My sister-in-law was crying laughing when we went to Organ Stop Pizza. It is such a classic memory for my family, she just wasn't officially 'Tutt' until she'd been there!

Uh-oh! That's what we get for ditching the little swimmers. :)

A little spray down with the hose and he was good as new!

We were all worn out by the end, and it was well worth it!

April Showers?

April Began and ended with a snow white day. Blah! Luckily, we did have a few nice days in between.

April 1st!

We spent one warmer day at the tulip festival. I had quite uncooperative photo subjects.

This is what Ruthie would do every time I tried to get a shot, a taste of my own medicine!

Tate's favorite part was the fountain in the Secret Garden.

By the time we left he was soaking from head to toe and in heaven!

April 30th.

Please let May be kinder to us!

Soccer Girl

I am proud to say I am officially a soccer mom! Ruthie has out grown her 'stage fright' and LOVES playing soccer! She was not afraid to bump around with the boys. 4 year old soccer is one of the funniest things I have ever seen though. One little girl cried the entire game. The coaches (and several parents) were on the field with the kids. The kids just want to kick the ball, regardless of direction. Ruthie's team, the Cougars :) , scored 3 goals for the other team! It is an awesome way to kick off the spring!
