Jadyn's Dance Recital
The annual dance recital was back at Glendale High School for the first time in 3 years! Jadyn was in two dances this year so there were twice (quadruple thanks to dance/schedule change) the costume changes, rehearsals and pictures! LOVE to watch her dance! She has so much fun but looks so focused and serious!

Tap was to Bidi Bidi Bom Bom by Selena            Jazz was to Helpless from Hamilton    
Tap Rehearsal: Sorry my phone doesn't have great volume :(

Graduation Parties
From Jadyn's recital straight to the graduation party at the Mackey's! So grateful to Jim and Tabitha for opening their home and planning an awesome party for all the graduates and their families. 

Jadyn opted for a sleepover with the Leclair girls as her "graduation party". We had her favorite, chicken tortilla, and watched movies.
Quick stop at Yogurtland before taking the girls home

Congrats to our nephew Tanner, and nieces Olivia and Lillian on their junior high graduations as well!
We celebrated with the Stotts Clan at their house in Moorpark.

VACATION!!!!! 
It's been 3 years in the making but we finally got to take our family Caribbean Cruise!
We left early Friday, June 17th and spent a night in Orlando before boarding The Mariner of the Seas with Royal Caribbean for 8 nights! AKA The deaf cruise... Bubba, Erik and Torey can't hear, Ethan has selective hearing and Honey and Jadyn have the softest voices ever! Makes for some fun conversations and a lot "what"? We call it hearing dyslexia. 
Erik and I took a beautiful morning walk around Airport Lakes Park in Orlando 
Waiting for the port transfer bus
I guess 8 hours just isn't enough for a growing boy
Got a thunder and lighting show before we left
Little windy while playing shuffle board
Shuffle board looks different after a few games
