May

{I started this post in May. Obviously just got it done...Sorry about that}

WARNING: Picture overload!

May was awesome. From the 1rst to the 6th we went to California with the Olsons. We had an amazing time. It had been 1 year since Taylor died and they wanted to go to California in his memory. And we just tagged along; as usual. Bruce and Jeannette actually came with us as well. It was just as fun as it could get.

I got a haircut right before our trip. A girl in our ward was 
about to graduate and still needed a few cuts to practice a little.

He such a little grown up traveler. And so, so handsome. 

We didn't have to rent a car there since everyone else was driving. We just got to ride with whoever all the time. Bruce and Jeannette were picking us up at the airport. After a "little" detour they got there. Just took a little longer than expected;)

We were pretty bored while we were waiting. There wasn't much to do. But we did get to see a guy getting arrested. Hey we had to entertain ourselves with what we had!

Here's pictures of our trip. We went to Disneyland on Friday, 2 different beaches on Saturday and Sunday and then we went to California Adventures on Monday. The house we stayed in was amazing and was perfect.  It was so fun. We are definitely in to turn this into a yearly tradition. We'd love to go back each year!






  













These two were so funny. They went in for the waves and when the waves came they'd run off. Then they'd turn back around saying "WE'RE MEN! WE'RE MEN! WE'RE MEN!!!!" hahahaha


   



Before....

After the wave....

Back to the "WE'RE MEN!" thing...




  










My handsome handsome boy all churched up...

Lowe's does that Build and Grow clinic once a month. It's free so why not right?

Mothers Day love!!!!


And snow to top the month off!!!:)

 PreK graduation

Memorial weekend with the family!



So these 2 guys served their mission in Quebec...12 years ago!
So even though we dont hang out that often, they sure are my oldest friends around here!:)

We love the airshows!
 Josan at "his" desk. He keep saying that when he's a dad he'll go work with dad. And so he had Adam put a little sign on the desk by his that said "Josan"...just to make sure they'd sit by each other...;)


At this point we are starting to feel a little discouraged with Foster Care. We have been licensed since the very beginning ogfMay and were expecting a placement very quickly. We had 2 calls so far: one about a 4 years old girl and her 6 years old brother. Both with possible behavioral issues. We were so heartbroken but had to say no. We had made it clear with our agency that we wanted Josan to stay the oldest kid and not only he would not be the oldest anymore but he would have gone from only child to middle child with behavioral siblings. So this was not the right choice for us at the time. The second call was for a 7 months old baby girl and her 2 years old brother. We said yes of course. They were still trying to place the 2 with their 4 years old brother all together but they told us it was very unprobable that they'd find a place for all 3 so we would end up with the 2 youngest. Us already having Josan we were not equipped for 3 more kids. so we couldn't take all 3 either. Anyways after getting everything ready for the 2 and being as excited as we could be we got a call to tell us they had found a home for the 3 of them together. We were so happy for them. But so disappointed from our selfish point of view. Was foster care going to be for us after all?
