May '18- Week 2-Hokulia, Anna's School Picture, Baseball, Ben's Opera, Mother's Day, Mr. H Concert

Tuesday Dan went rowing again. Ben took this sweet selfie of himself snuggling Alice before school. In the afternoon we got some free Hokulia for posing for some pictures Lara took.  
McKenna worked on her diorama that night.  Cute smiley Alice video.
Wednesday we got back Anna's Spring school pictures.  I love her "watch" which is a flower hair tie. 
I caught Bethany relaxing and reading books in Alice's room while I organized some clothes. 
That night Ben had a baseball game and Grandma Sibber was nice enough to come. 


Ben also had his team pictures that night. 
Alice slept through the night again!  

Thursday I went walking with Rachael then Desi came over to play.  
That night we attended Ben's first grade OPERA!  His class opera was called "The Talking Pizza."  And Ben was one of the talking pizzas.  He was so expressive and said he loved performing.  Not the least bit shy or scared.  We went for McDonald's ice cream afterwards.  

Dan went to a family meeting to discuss the big Webster family camping trip.  Then Dan and all his siblings came over to recreate a family picture to give to his mom for Mother's Day.  


Friday was a normal day at home getting stuff done.  
Cute Bethany singing "Million Dreams" from Greatest Showman. 
Dan attended a viewing for the dad of one of his coworkers.  

Saturday the kids did some cleaning (a wonderful early Mother's Day gift) and we went through more kids' clothes.  McKayla Cardall was in the neighborhood and stopped by to say hi.  Dan cleaned the outside of some of our higher windows. Then McKenna, Anna, and I attended a baby shower for Rachael Alexander's sister Shelby while Dan got groceries.  

Sunday was a lovely Mother's Day! Our Sacrament meeting was filled with youth speakers only and it was so awesome.  Ben gave a scripture in Primary.  I made zucchini bread that afternoon and the kids gave me their sweet gifts.  




Dan made dinner then we went to Dan's parents' house to give gifts and cards to Dan's mom to celebrate her!  
I of course got to talk to my own mom on the phone as well as calling my Grandma Condie.  I'm so eternally grateful to be a mother to these 5 amazing children of God!  I'm likewise thankful for my own mother and mother-in-law who have done their best to be the best moms they know how to be!  

Monday Anna had gymnastics, then after lunch we went to Alice's 2 months check up.  (Stats on previous blog post.)  Anna got her kindergarten shots and was SO brave she didn't even cry!  
Baseball was cancelled that night due to a storm.  McKenna worked on her student council application.  That night Dan attended WX High's choir concert because it was the last concert Mr. H would be conducting. Dan said it was pretty wild to walk the halls with some of his high school buddies.  It felt like a different life!  **Alice slept through the night!
