It just wouldn't be Spring without PROM!  Abby went with her good buddy Ben, and had a BALL!  She ordered her dress online, it was the exact color she hoped it would be, her friend bought some extra shrugs so we bought one from her, and it didn't need a single alteration...she lives such a charmed life!  She survived her AP tests and is looking forward to less stress at school for the next few weeks!

So, I ran out behind the cute couple because I forgot to take a picture of the back of Abby's hair (updo courtesy of Kenzie) and Ben wanted to be sure I got a picture of his fresh haircut, too(:

Check out these dancin' shoes!

It wouldn't be a dance without a pic of Abby and Jamison in front of the red curtain.  

SPRING!!  It just wouldn't be official without a visit to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving point.

Our last Pinewood Derby!!  It was a photo finish just to finish the car, but, the UTEmobile did better than cars of the past.  The initial numbers were actually not quite right, so, we found out later that Jimmy's car came in 5th or 6th.  He actually beat the number 1 car in one race(:

We're so excited for Kenzie who made a last minute decision to try out for the Lone Peak Sophomore Cheer squad.  Looks like a really fun group of girls...GO KNIGHTS!!

These are the moments that make me thrilled to be a mother...it just doesn't happen often enough that all the kids are together PLAYING anymore...could I just freeze this phase of my life for a few more years...I am BLESSED!!

We had a FUN visit from Tina, Ethan, Josie and Ryan.  I just wish they'd stop growing so fast...We're so grateful they came by before they headed back to Cali...they came for a Spring Break visit the same time we left for Arizona.  Thanks for coming!!

Tim and Jimmy blazed ahead and were on their way down as we were reaching the top...Tim had to be on a call, so Jimmy just stuck with him!



CAMELBACK MOUNTAIN "WALK"

There are two ways to get up to the top...an easy way which I took at 5 months pregnant with Jimmy and a real hike.  Well, the girls weren't too happy that we deceived them (I was actually not in on the deception because I thought we were taking the easy route) but, you wouldn't know it by the smiles on their faces at the top(:
