Bye Bye "Mae Mae", "Dough-nee", and "Kay!"

This is Clay's german chocolate graduation cake... Isaac decided it'd be a good idea to climb on the table while we were in the other room and start eating it... That's my boy!!

Joni and Clay took one last trip to Fort Collins before they moved, so we got to have "twins" for the night:) We took Ikey and Macy out for dinner where one of the servers was vaccuuming (the kids' favorite thing in the world)! I thought we were going to have to get her autograph, they were cheering for her and Isaac was saying "Baa-cuuum! It was pretty cute! Then we came home, gave baths and while I was rocking Macy, Ikey decided he needed a piece of the action, so he climbed in my lap... They both fell asleep this way! It was pretty fun:)

Our family has a crazy couple of weeks since I last posted! We have been juggling many "acts" as the school year is coming to a close. We have had the privilege of having my sister, Joni with her husband, Clay, and their 15 month old daughter Macy living in Laramie with us. Joni, being the doll she is, has been watching Ike for me in the mornings while I work at the Open School. It has been a great experience all the way around! Clay graduated from college this past week, and with that came a great big move to Pinedale, Wyoming... sniffle... sniffle... So, Ikey is going through serious Mae Mae, Doughnee and Kay withdrawls. He keeps carrying a pair of Macy's socks around looking for her! He also has a couple of pictures of them that he carries around religously everyday. It's pretty cute, but still heartbreaking! Anyway, we sure miss them, but are so excited for them... wow, what's it like to purchase a home and have real jobs? We may never know!



Other than that, Ben and I are trying our best to keep our heads up and keep relying on the Lord to lead us down the right paths. We are going to be in Laramie this summer with Ben working in the Pharmacy and I will be working at the Open School in the mornings again, while Isaac goes to Grandma's. I love Laramie in the summer... the weather is typically great and it's a really neat, close-knit atmosphere that forms when the weather is good enough to go outside! I've already started jogging and am training for a couple of races this summer... Isaac will run with me (in the jogger) and we're trying to convince Ben to join us!
