Some of these...

Greetings Blog Readers! Life slowed down just long enough for me to share with you our latest adventures...

Lily's last day of PreK, she got to be in one of these... 

I made some of these... 

 John Lee and I snuck away on one of these...

 Maya's b-day guests enjoyed some of these...

Maya had one of these...

Alisa is often found playing in this... 

For our piano recital refreshments we had some of these... 

I have a huge piano studio, as you can see. I am so proud of all my students!! It was fun to play on one of these...

And no summer is complete without all of these...

Family Gathering #1 - Rorings

Family Gathering #2a - Oxborrows 

Family Gathering #2b - Oxborrows 

Family Gathering #3 - Jensens/Rorings Not Photographed

Family Gathering #4 - Oxborrows, minus my sister serving in the Peace Corp, assigned in Mongolia.

Whew! And John Lee had a birthday too. His traditional "Punch Bowl Cake" was served, but I didn't get a picture...it would have looked the same as all the other birthdays he's had that cake!

Anyone have any tips on keeping up with laundry?! I just can't seem to manage...someday, right?

It's spring, spring, spring again!

Happy 1st Birthday Alisa!! This one was not shy about digging right in to her 'smash cake'! So cute. The guests enjoyed chocolate-dipped cake pops and cupcakes; they were gobbled up in minutes. I guess people liked them!

This is how my kids usually are: K and L in jammies, M in practically nothing, and A in the high chair. I love my little monkeys!

For Spring Break we went swimming, and very much enjoyed the water!

After swimming we got a pizza, nearly as big as our table!! This 28" pizza lasted us for several days, and it was tasty:)

Easter baskets have candy...need I say more.

These tasty brownie kabobs were created just for my sister, Sara's, birthday. Mmmmm.

And I've been playing in sugar, again. But they turned out so lovely. I ended up hand painting the fondant flowers.

Winter Fun with the Roring's!

Alisa is a thumb-sucker!! Haha!

Extreme Sledding up the canyon!! Loved being towed up the hill with a snowmobile!

Keoni played Jr. Jazz this year! Wahoo!

Ah, yes, another "Mural by Maya." This one is called 'Rainbows' and was done in sharpies, in my front room. Joy.

Dr. Roring took a trip to the elementary school and showed the 1st and 2nd graders how to take care of their teeth. SMILE!!

Merry Christmas!

Happy Birthday Keoni!!

We headed to the race track for K's birthday...So FUN!

This is my newly decorated 'Red and White' Tree. It's so pretty :)

Nativity Scene - the sheep were played by 'Little People' this year.

This is my 'Pencil' tree, which we love because it is so skinny...we didn't have to move anything to put it up. We put our family decorations on this one. It's fun!

Merry Christmas, Alisa! Hope your first was a good one!

Happy Halloween!

Maya the Bee is Flying through the air!

Mermaid, Bee, Vampress, and Batman

Our cute pumpkins! The tooth is based on JL's office logo...crafty.

It's autumn time, the leaves are falling down...

Alisa is crawling! This is her favorite yoga pose, downward facing dog...

We took a trip down south to Tuacahn and saw the broadway version of Little Mermaid. So fun, Keoni and Lily loved it!! And we got to see my Aunt and Uncle, cousins Brian, and George (who never leaves a comment on my blog) and his cute family, too!

This is Maya's new silly face. I just have to laugh every time she does it!

This is for Sarah and Joey; and she just got stuck somewhere and it just happened.

This is our 'toy room', oh, and there's Alisa! Clearly, she is having the time of her life.

Alisa is 8 months old and just keeps getting cuter

(and more and more like our other Roring-mold children)

Summer or Fall? I really can't tell!

Maya is so funny...she loves to undress herself, usually at the most inopportune times.

Lily's first day of Pre-k. She was utterly upset that class was over and we had to go home...she LOVED it!!

Happy Birthday Lily! She wanted 'a giant Rapunzel Tower that everyone can eat.'

Well, I aim to please.

We had a friend party and made Rapunzel Hair exentions...these were for the non-partiers.

Oh, Alisa, my how you've grown. 6 months already!

Shoe anyone? Whipped these up for a RS activity

Keoni's first day of 1st grade!
