Cade took Emma and Madi Waite to their first concert. The artist was Livingston. Cade had never heard of him but I had a good friends wedding reception that night. They had an amazing time and Cade ended up liking it a lot too.
Nora and Lucy did a choir this year called "Rise Up Children's Choir." Let's just say we now know that choir is NOT for them :). They were very happy when it was over (and so was I).
Happy Father's Day!
For my mom's (Grandma Bleak) birthday she requested that all of her family and friends try and go to the temple for her 70th birthday. So some of us did a session at night and then went to our house for dessert after. Happy 70th Grandma! Emma and Reese did baptisms and I took the younger 4 to have a picnic and walk around the temple on her birthday.
Scout Falls will always be one of my all time favorite hikes. I love it. Reese and Nora are my hiking buddies that actually like hiking. Some day I hope my other kids will learn to love it too!
Morgan Raymer got married! WE love Morgan. We just call her our cousin but technically she is Cade's cousins daughter. She married Zach Warner and we love him too! They make a great couple. Jane absolutely LOVED Morgan. Like so much. She was waiting outside the bridal tent for over 20 min just to make sure she could be the first one to give Morgan a hug!
I loved this!!! I hope we can do it every summer. We borrowed some friends outdoor screen and projector and did an outdoor movie with family and some friends.
The Play that Goes Wrong. Super fun!
Cade and his dad at a Bee's Baseball Game.
Nora brought some friends to the splash pad and Lucy and Jane had their cousins. This new park down the road is amazing- Cook Family Park.
I don't think this pic needs a caption... 😂
Emma and Reese after doing baptisms for the dead at the temple.
Just one pic from the Grandma sleepover (the younger group). We made shirts for them that said "B n F's" for Bobs and Freds. Lucy was VERY excited about it. They had an awesome time.
Valerie Chapman Cope was in town and so 4 of us from our Nauvoo days got together with our families. It was so much fun and obviously not long enough. But I love all those women I got to serve a mission with!
