Little Gym Graduation

I was looking today at our blog and noticed I FORGOT to post these pics! Last week was Evan's LG graduation...this was his FOURTH graduation! We LOVE the little gym! Not only does Evan know pretty much everyone in his class but also most of the teachers! He is so comfortable there and always has the best time! Look at him last year at his spring graduation...MY SWEET LITTLE BOY!
















And Check him out this year!



















































Evan has such a crush on little Gracie! Aren't they CUTE?!

















Total Ev pose...
















Doing his front roll into two monkey jumps!








































Of course hanging from the bar!
























This chewing on the shirt thing is NEW!
























SISSY SAY CHEESE! Can't wait until she is ready for gym!


















And a new improvement this semester: Evan loves the beam but always wanted to side step! NOW, we walk FORWARD! YEA!











































And Balls and Bubbles are always a fun favorite!
























MEDAL TIME!

























































































And I was so excited about trying to get a little friends pic...but...Ev was NOT feeling it!
















AND last week...Evan went to camp at the LG ALL BY HIMSELF! Sissy and I stayed and spied (couldn't resist) and intended on taking alot of undercover pics...BUT NO MEMORY card...so I've got nothin! But, this one stolen pic from AMY! :) The boys did so good! Evan loved opening and closing the door to the gym...guess just making sure I was there! Next time, I may let him try without me watching! HAHA!

Mommy and Daddy's Little Getaway!

On Wednesday, Christian and I had our 4th anniversary! WOW how time flies! Though, we have done alot in these 4 years! HAHA! For our anniversary gift, my mom and Todd booked us a night at the Westin Kierland Resort! It was so nice to get away and spend some time together! Though, it was weird at the pool, dinner, in our room...not having to worry about our little ones! Evan and Ainsley stayed with my mom and Todd...Evan had a blast and once Ainsley got adjusted...she did great! Thank you so much guys for the room, this basket that was waiting for us in our room, and taking such great care of our babies! This was a WONDERFUL weekend!






Poolside!


There is a pic just like this that one of our friends got of us from our rehearsal dinner...so we tried to re-enact it!








View from our hotel room...the room was BEAUTIFUL! SOOO roomy, with a patio, sitting area, big screen TV (though way too busy to watch it), huge bathroom with big tub, separate shower...and it had a really cool double shower head, that my hubby that works at Ferguson said he can hook up with no problem! LOL...Can't believe I didn't get any pics inside the room! We actually forgot to bring our camera so took all of these on Christian's iphone.





Another view from our balcony!




Hanging out by the golf course in the courtyard waiting for the bagpiper!



Bagpiper!



This little girl kept running circles around him...pretty funny!







View from our room last night...we could hear the live music and everything...so nice! We headed down to Kierland Commons to check out a concert there and some late night appetizers and cheesecake at my favorite place...Cheesecake Factory!





The resort's pool...Complete with lazy river, splash pad, slide, cabanas, a bar/grill, and beach entry...AND yes...we did it all! There was an "adult" pool...but this one was more our speed! LOL Wish Evan would have been at the pool with us...he would have loved it!











And once we got home, Evan couldn't wait to go swimming! Isn't Christian such a fun Dad? He decided to make Evan a little water slide!





SWEET girl! Actually stayed in the water for an hour! Floated around, played with mommy...had so much fun...but with Chris and I both in...couldn't get pics!

And...we went to Christine's birthday party at her community pool. Community Pool??? Yeah, like the best one I have EVER seen! This place was so cool! A slide, a big dipper, a playground in the middle! SOOO FUN!



Evan also did the slide with Amy...she really wanted a turn and decided to take a little one down with her :) LOL Camera wasn't ready!






OH YEAH! That is what Evan said each time he went down!



NO FEAR!











Christine LOVES Tinkerbell...here she is opening the tutu I made her :)












This week has actually flown by! SUMMER IS HERE and I have started doing swim lessons again for the kids in the playgroup (name: Shakers and Movers)! It has been so fun and the best part...Evan gets to have friends over 3 times a week! Evan also went to Camp at The Little Gym on Thursday and did so good...though mommy forgot to put the memory card in the camera...AH!






This weekend also has many new adventures...TOMORROW morning Evan starts his sports class and then him and Ainsley are staying with Todd and Mims while mommy and daddy have an anniversary celebration!
