End of the School Year

It has been crazy at the Erickson house for the past couple of weeks. I don't know how we have been able to fit all the activities in, but somehow we have managed. Sometimes it takes some creative coverage to make sure a parent is at each function and it sure helps to have Connor and Bryce old enough to be in charge.

Some highlights:

Connor and Bryce finished Track and had their banquet. They both received a certificate of participation.

Connor and Bryce also went on their 1st Night Hike/Campout at Lena Lake. They can't wait to go again.

Lauren and Keith had a Daddy/Daughter night for Achievement Girls at Church.

Lauren tested into the Gates program and will be in the 3/4/5 combined Gates class in the fall.

I survived organizing and executing my first "Craft Night" for our Enrichment Groups through Church.

Kiersten has done amazing in swimming lessons. She is in the Starfish class(Level 4). She has 2 lessons left before we take a break for the summer. I'm not sure if she will continue in the fall or not since we will have Preschool to schedule in as well.

Hunter and Bryce have moved into their own "rooms". We split the front room into 2 spaces using partitions and a set of curtains. Kiersten moved into Hunter's old room. Currently, she is sleeping on a mattress on the floor, but we have high hope of getting a bed frame off Craigslist.

The weather has been really nice and the kids are enjoying being outside and riding bikes around everywhere. We are a few bikes short but maybe Santa Claus can bring bikes for everyone.

We are gearing up for the end of school. Only 3 1/2 more days to go. We are all looking forward to Utah and North Carolina this summer and are wishing the days would pass quicker!
