Let summer begin!

I took some of the grands to the Chalk art festival in down town Bountiful.  We have done this for 3 years now and our tradition is to see all the artists, draw a little of our own...and then head to 7-11 for Slurpees. 
Alfie is 9 and loving screens and video games.  He's really smart and does well in school.  Tayla finished up her first year at a spanish immersion charter school and she loved it.  She is the kindest, most aware kid in her class and helps every one around her.  She got a great attitude award that was only given to 10 students in her whole school.  Poppy and Lady just finished up their preschool.  Lady is very verbal and has big emotions and loves being in charge.  Lady said for her preschool graduation that she wants to be a mommy when she grows up.. Poppy wants to be a face painter.  Poppy is all legs.  She has adhd-- and when she seems she isn't focusing, she really is, she is just easily distracted.  Poppy loves to talk, as well, and will sing and share all of her thoughts.  Elsie- is a darling 3 year old..she will also sing me a song at the drop of a hat.  Her favorite is, "I'm so blessed..."  she really likes the "Halelujah I'm blessed" part at the end.  Elsie is easy and creative and loves doing everything her sisters do.  Curious George is a busy almost 2 year old.  He is learning to communicate and is very fun to engage with.  

I took Liz to see Tina Turner the musical for her birthday this year.  We went to dinner and then the show.  We loved it.  It's so sad to see how hard people's lives are-- Tina -- yet they are great artists after all.
