June

So...you can probably tell that I have been called to Girls Camp again! How can you tell...I haven't blogged in so long! I have been a super busy little bee...but let's get caught up! 
June was awesome!  Jaxon finished first grade, and I have to brag a little bit.  He was awarded the Rotary award at his school.  This award is given to the kid that has a great attitude, awesome in school, working hard at everything, and is just overall wonderful!  They only give it to one little kiddo in each class!  We were BEYOND proud! 

Ella has to be in on every pic these days. 

We are so proud of him!!  I was sobbing my eyes out!  :)  Such a sap!

 The week before school ended, they had an Olympics at Jaxon's school.  They got to do a Mega Tug of War which the WON!!!  They beat out all of the other 1st grade classes!  He was super excited!

Getting ready!

 Jaxon has started doing BIG TIME chores in the house.  He has a certain jobs every day of the week and he has started learning to vacuum.  He was saying it was too loud, so Rich fixed that for him.  :)

 Ella has been such a little ham lately!!  She LOVES to put on a show for everyone!  We went into Jaxon's class the other day (remember...he has year round school), and she started dancing for the entire class.  She loved it when they all started clapping. 

She was waiting for Jaxon's awards ceremony...she was entertaining the waiting crowd.

She wants to go to school with Jaxon almost everyday.

We went to the LA Flower Market...I love how she looks at him.

I think this is one of my favorite pics EVER. This is Sunday after church.  I love it.

Ella finds every water puddle.  She had piggies in her hair and decided she needed them out...great hair, huh?

Puddle baby

 Of course we have been hitting the beach quite a bit.  Jaxon has been getting so brave!  He now goes WAY out with Rich and dives under the oncoming waves.  It scares me death!  But, he loves it and Rich is right next to him and I am so happy he loves the water.

He NEVER comes out of the water.

Ella loves the beach, too.  She says "Beeeeeee"!!!

This is what happens to me at the beach.  ;(
