Storytime with 4 kids, no problem! :)

First time we have made it back to story time since she slept through them last fall!
Loving the bells!
And the bubbles!
In love with her giggles!

Love my village of friends helping with the kids! Amanda picked up Kyrie and Clare along with her kiddos from rehearsal, got them takeout from Chipotle, and took them to Wyldlife Club! They had a blast playing dodgeball and eating donuts! I couldn't do this life with 4 busy kids without the help of my village!
All these kids entered the John L Scott coloring contest! They are hoping to win a $100 Amazon gift card! Will find out end of May!

7th grade Skyridge girls vs boys b-ball game!
Olivia and Kyrie have been BFFs since 1st grade!! Loved they got to play against each other!
Game time! So many of the boys didn't play cause they were scared they were gonna lose to the girls! The girls beat all of their opponents by 60+ points, except Shahala with the dominating Kadee Spike by 30 points! I was glad Kyrie signed on to play regardless!!
Livk & Kyrie trash talking!
Love they got to guard each other!
Kyrie with a foul on Liv!
Liv taking it to Kyrie!

The cheering section was all about the girls' team! :) When the boys would score, no clapping or cheering but a couple parents! When the girls scored lots of cheering and screaming from this section! lol!!:)
The boys did end up winning by about 30 I think, which was actually shocking!
Wow! When mama's subbing, Dad creates quite the smorgasbord!!
