Wonderful, Crazy May

So here is a run down of the last month and half. Adriana's birthday was fun and sad (for me). End of the year things with the highlights being the 4th grade play, Cinco de Mayo performance, and talent show (that went on for 2 days, long story and rather irritating, but oh well). Adriana and Emmy had their gymnastics show. Adriana's was the older groups and looked very painful for this unfit body. She is very talented and looking forward to the day when she is doing the flips crazy things that will make this mom hide her face and be glad for insurance. It was her second year in and is really progressing. Emmy performed earlier in the evening with the younger groups and needless to say that was entertainment. Just imagine 3&4 (there were other groups that were older and better) doing somersaults across the stage running into each other. Which made for some very unhappy little gymnasts. Carsen did coach pitch baseball and did really well. We are just trying to get him to use all his strength in his swings. Once he learns to follow through on his swings the balls will be out of here. Our beautiful Temple was dedicated. What an absolutely wonderful experience. I had the opportunity to sing in the dedication choir. There are no words to describe that experience. It was truly one of the most spiritual events of my life. I am so grateful for the talent I was blessed with that lead to this opportunity. I was wonderful to be so close to Pres. Monson, Pres. Eyring and Elder Holland. I stood right behind Elder Costa from the Pres. of the Seventy and Elder Walker from the First Quorum of the Seventy. Just maybe a little intimidating. Those men are truly wonderful men. It was a very busy month, but an absolutely wonderful month. I do have to say that I was glad to breathe.
