Happy 13th Birthday Jacob!!!!

Jacob's birthday menu:  Fish Tacos and chocolate cake with whip cream frosting.

Grandma and Grandpa Cardon joined the celebration.  Jacob received lots of Candy, especially from his pals, a gift certificate to "The Rock Shop", and some money which he is great at putting into savings.  This year Jacob had a party with about 25 of his closest friends in which they played night games and pigged out on cheese balls and cream soda.  It was a blast! No photos were allowed to be taken.  Mom and Dad chaperoned and had fun playing cards at the picnic table.

Kate was chosen again for her work to be displayed at the Gilbert Public Schools Art Show.

Happy Easter with all of the Arizona Cardon Cousins.
Beautiful Easter Day!

We were so excited to get some Maxfield visitors!  Gary and Suzanne visited us Easter weekend.  We  went to the Easter Pageant where we met up with Pam, John, and Sydney.  We enjoyed watching the kids play tennis, Andy and Gary played golf, and Kate hosted a Easter Party- party games, hats, etc.
It was so much fun!!!

20 years later- All married with children.
We had such a great weekend catching up on each other's life. Listening and laughing a lot.  Going back to the past visiting the BYU campus and eating at Brick Oven.  Making new memories during one amazing cooking class taught by our Freshman pal- Aaron.
He was pretty wigged out to see us all and to find out that we still are just as giggly and loud.
20 years later and our bond stronger than ever.
Love these ladies! Always have and always will!

Kate- 4th Grade Golden Scholar
Writing and Art are her favorites!
Summer, Taylor, and Jacob were Golden Scholars as well, but chose not to attend the ceremony- "Too boring." 
Just thrilled everyone is doing so well in school.

Happy 43rd Birthday Andy!
The kidos surprised him with this awesome poster.
He let me tag along while he played golf on his day off.  We had the best time!  The weather was beautiful and I was definitely his good luck charm.  We spent the whole day together on the golf course and went out for a late lunch.  I can see why he loves the game of golf so much!  I am so happy he had such a great birthday!!!!! It was a great way to end such a great month.
