The end of the school year is quickly coming.  Misha’s last day is Thursday with a field trip to the zoo next Tuesday.  She has a graduation from preschool.  I am not really keen on the zoo, never been my favorite place to visit.  I am really looking forward to not having to do so much driving around.  Amy is finished school June 1st.  A field day is scheduled for May 31st and a talent show for the 1st. 

Kristen took her first steps on Mother’s Day, May 14th.  She is gaining more balance and strength all the time.  She began crawling on March 9 and hasn’t slowed down since.  She now has 5 almost 6 teeth.  Chris and I were looking at pictures of Amy yesterday when she was Kristen’s age.  They look so much alike in facial expressions and mannerisms.  Kristen has tons more hair, but the resemblance is amazing.

My brother Mitch is living in Frederick, Colorado for the summer.  Chris helped him get an internship with IBM for the summer that will work into a job for the fall that he can work at from Utah.  He arrived on May 6th.  I think he is pretty settled now.  He can probably find his way around a bit but I don’t think he has ventured much to the South and only North since that is the way he came.  He is living with a single guy in the other ward that we knew before the wards were split.
