End of School Year Craziness!!

I haven't posted forever....but that doesn't mean we haven't been BUSY!! BUSY!!
 Oakley had a 6th grade track meet a couple weeks ago.  (Oakley is on the left end) They bring all the 6th graders together from all the different schools that will go to the middle school next year and have a track meet.  They practiced for several weeks trying to get ready and we came home with the 1st place award! Go Ucon Wildcats!!
 Oakley's teacher told her she was going to run the 100 meter and do the Frisbee throw.  *They have a few interesting events at the 6th grade track meet! Ha, ha!* Anyway...we marked off the 100 meter on the road infront of our house and Oakley ran it over and over.  The morning of the track meet Oakley's teacher decided to have her run the 200 meter instead.  AH!! I told her she had to pace it out a little better than the 100 or she would DIE at the end.  She did so good for not having practiced it.  She is the pink with white shorts here in 4th place.  She actually pulled ahead of the girl in blue infront of her and got 3rd in her heat!  Way to run your guts out Oakley!!
 Oakley also had an end of the year band concert.  She is front and center in the white shirt and purple headband around her head.  They were suppose to dress-up as cops and robbers. :) She has become a good little clarinet player and at one point during the end of the year was 1st chair!!
 We have also had a few warm days when the swimsuits and hose came out! SOOOO FUN!!
 Who needs to buy expensive swimming pools or water slides when you can pull out a pair of dad's watering boots and be entertained all afternoon?  They seriously filled these up....climbed in....emptied them and then filled them up again.  OVER and OVER!
 Also....as I was uploading pictures from Oakley's camera I found atleast 50+ pictures of these 2 naughty little girls that were taken AFTER they were suppose to be tucked  in and asleep one night.  NAUGHTIES!! They just got CAUGHT!!  I laughed so hard at several of the pictures.  They had alot of these sleepy eyes ones, several tongues out pics and some noses in armpit pics.  :) Silly Sisters!
This one was my favorite because of my baby girls peace sign. Ha, ha!!
We ran to my parents and got Rhett a new to us (gram murdocks old one) queen bed for his room.  He and Dallin have tried sleeping together the past few nights in it.  They LOVE it.  Me....not so much! I have had to haul Dallin's bum to his own bed more of the few nights than not. They are 2 naughty little boys too! :) I see where they get it from. *Notice the above picture! :) 
Today was the LAST DAY OF SCHOOL FINALLY!!! We have been counting down for MONTHS!! We are over ready for a break!! I went to the kids award ceremony...without camera or cell phone...so no pictures.  They all received the Presidential Physical Fitness award.  Both boys got Super Attendance awards and Oakley got one for Outstanding Achievements for her good grades! I am so proud of them!!  We have got some big plans already for the summer we are looking forward to - Swim team, girls camp, scout day camp, family vacation, Rhett is going to keep doing gymnastics, etc.  SUMMER HERE WE COME!!
