LOL

Mr. Holsey and his famous lameO face....dork! Ü


And heres the face I love! Ü




So here are a few conversations that Mr. Holsey and I have had in the past 24 hours.

setting: Monday afternoon in the living room watching Oprah. Mr. Holsey walks in as I am half way through the show.
Mr. Holsey: "Why are you watching Oprah without me? You know I want to watch this!"
Me: "Oh sorry sweetie....It is recorded"

Setting: In my car driving home from Costco today. I am jamming to Marky Mark singing Good Vibrations (very loudly with the sunroof open and the windows down) Ü
Mr. Holsey: "Um honey can you turn it down this is a little embarrassing."
me: thinking......Really Marky Mark is embarrassing but watching Oprah isnt? "I love you Sweetie!"

The end is near...

The end of the school year that is. The girls ran with the Mayor of West Jordan last week in the annual Fun Run. They ran enough times around the playground to get a picture taken with the Mayor. I don't know why they are smiling in all these pictures.....they didn't inherit a love of running from me!











Mayor Johnson and Madison after the race.

The girls have been in the school choir all year. They performed last week. It was the cutest performance! Madison is so animated as she sings. Many of our neighbors who attended the performance told me how fun it was to watch Madison sing. Her facial expressions are not captured on any of these pics....you will just have to take my word for it.

A Birthday Wish for Maddie Comes True

You only turn 8 once! Maddie skipped school and headed to the happiest place on earth! We surprised her with a character breakfast when we first arrived at the park. Then we only rode the rides Madison wanted to go on. That means no roller coasters.....or my favorite ride the Tower of Terror. :(Mickey Mouse!

Even Daddy got some love from Minnie!

Madison wore a happy birthday pin all day. She loved all the employees telling her "happy birthday" all day long. It was a great day!

On May 16th, PBS will be showing a documentary about the Freedom Riders of 1961. I was shocked to think of what happened in our country 11 years before I was born. But I am happy with the changes that happened because of the Freedom Riders. I am thankful for each and everyone of them who had a dream and knew what was right and followed that dream with their hearts. Thank you!
