Where in the world are the Wykoff's?

Busy, busy, busy......Many changes have come about since my last post, so I will try to recap everything. My mom was here for two weeks and we had lots of fun.

On May 18 Lauren and Alison started riding the school bus. Alison loves riding, she waves hello and goodbye to the bus each morning and afternoon. Lauren doesn't seem to mind either. Let me tell you it is WONDERFUL not to have to drive back and forth several times a day to school.
Alison got glasses for the first time, she thinks she is quite the diva in them and loves to look at herself in the mirror any chance she gets. Of course after she had them on for about 20 minutes she decided to throw them on the fireplace when no one was looking and scratched the lenses.Oh and notice those cute new Vans Ali is sporting, Daddy decided that she definitely needed some skateboarding sneaks to along with her skateboarding adventures with Daddy (I will have to get a picture of that.

We have a whole tree of lemons in our backyard, so Mom and I had this great idea to make lemonade, then it turned into margaritas, then lemon mernigue pie. Then Taylor said "Mommy lets try the lemon juice I bet it's yummy" Well as you can see they are indeed sour! Thanks Daddy for capturing this lovely photo.

Then last Saturday Taylor had her dance recital, both grandmas, uncle ryan and aunt shauna were able to watch our dancing elmo. They danced to the song "Happy Tapping with Elmo" , she did a fantastic job! As you can see Ali and Lauren enjoyed watching the show too.


If you all remember back in April we had professional photos taken through a great program
"The Littlest Heroes Project" http://www.littlestheroesproject.org/ with a fantastic photographer http://www.naturalblissphotography.com/ We received our awesome package that included a slide show and a cd with all the photos. Here are just a few of our favorites:



LIFE IS GREAT!!!

What a great update today. I'm sure it took a lot of time updating all those beautiful pictures. It's wonderful of you taking this time to share your family activities with us. Being such a great distance from you, this blog keeps us up-to-date on the Wykoff happenings. Miss you all!
Love,
MOM

Priceless pictures! It makes us happy to see the Happy Wykoff family in California. And it makes us wish we were closer. Lots of hugs and kisses, Grandpa Wykoff and Lydia.

Thank you so much for the kind words about the photos...and thank you for sharing my website and the images here. It warms my heart <3
I've been thinking of your family...when my grandson is fussy Candice and I sing, "Don't cry Bennie"...inspired by the Wykoff family. :)
