June

June 2 - Jethro's blessing day with Noelle (Gwinna and Sia stayed with Avo- sickies)

Gwinna's last day of school was June 7th.  Too late in the summer if you ask me! 

Then again the first two weeks I wanted to send her straight back 🙄

June 14th we celebrated Great Grandma's 85th birthday and switched the venue to

El Jardin's 

"much betta"

more good times in Target

"lovely children" 

we discovered a trampoline park in Turlock and they are in love 😄

  Mostly Noelle's art ^^^

Sia's art

purging time

 ^^ Gwinna in Uncle Si's costume that Michael Joe bought a few years ago and never wore 🤣

this was quite hilarious...had to share 🤣🤣🤣

bath times and fig pie times this month ^^^

Our next door neighbor has an adorable dog named Bella who has figured out how to get out of her gate as of late and one of those days we gave her some water, went inside to get ready and came back  out to this lovely mess 🤭 

I think she was upset with us for leaving her.

OUR FIRST FAMILY MOVIE IN THEATERS ^^^ 

Toy Story 4!!!!!!

It was so much fun and all of the girls did great and we ate way too much popcorn and candy and it was a lovely time... Sia discovered  toward the end how to move recliners up and down...poor Gwinna went for a ride for the last 20 minutes...very patiently 🤣

sweet, funny, awesome little ones 

May

Gwinna has some friends;) ^

one of Noelle's experiments ^
she's done: fingerprints on tape, vinegar dissolving egg shells, tye dye on paper towels and discovered the wax from babybels can be made into a buttery slime?! 😊

one of the results of Christmas purging with the Grandma and Grandpa ^

open house play
Can you see Gwinna? She was a great little narrator!

A few of the gorgeous pictures my parents sent us from Italy this year 😍^^^

mothers day love

Sometimes we just go and have a long roam through Target and try all of the little chairs:)

An amazing trip in May was one taken with Grandma and Grandpa to the newly reopened Oakland Temple.

 So cool to be able to take the girls in the room where their parents were sealed for eternity.  

 There was a lot of waiting and driving involved and the girls did very well!

April

Our little Uncle Stanley boy married his Maddie girl on April 12th:) ^^^

We had a fun dinner celebrating year #2 of Silva Injury Law's life!!! Go Michael Joe GO!!! 

Below:
bubble time, puzzles with Grandma, Hilmar Cheese and waiting for General Conference to start

typical texting with Harley 😄

Mom's response 😆 I did not want to forget this one.
This was right before our great Christmas decor purging. 

Selfie Saturday

The girls at the dealer ^ Michael Joe picked out a car for me and we spent a few hours there with these wonderful, sturdy balloons;) Poor Michael...I complain about my lack of sliding door and deep trunk space but my new ride is growing on me.  

Things I so DO appreciate about it:

 map system...being able to send it to my car and see it in front of my face

seat adjusts to me when I press my number

AC/heated seats

I can open the trunk as I am walking to the car

Egg hunts galore this year.  Prettiest one was at the Flower Farm with Grandma and Grandpa ^

Easter bunny came 😊

Girls picked some flowers for me^^^

It is May 24th as I blog this and these guys are still up. 
Egg heads...I didn't realize I would love a cheap Michaels craft project so much!!!
