Christensen Clan

Hello everyone!  We finished school last week and we love having everyone home!  Eleanor has quite a few pictures on here but I guess that's ok, she had a special week.  They do Kindergarten graduation here, and it was pretty cute.  So proud of her, but it always makes me sad when I get to the end of a school year and realize that it means each of my kids will be in the next grade up.  Growing up too fast.  We went to lots of end-of-the-year awards ceremonies for the kids.  We're proud of all their hard work and adjusting to a new school this year.
Saturday our stake had an "activity day girls" activity and they said to bring a friend.  So proud of Clara.  She invited a friend from school...of course a nonmember.  I talked to her mom and told her which church it was.  We picked her up and they had a great time.  I asked Clara what Savannah thought of everything.  There were lots of activities centered around the Savior, and one station about the temple.  She asked Clara questions like, "why are you called a mormon" and "My mom said mormons don't believe in Christ."  But she had lots of fun and I'm happy that one more person who was confused about that aspect of the gospel won't be anymore.
We said goodbye to our good friends the Davidsons this weekend.  They are moving to Georgia.  Ephraim and I are the most sad because we saw them almost everyday.  Ephraim's only consolation is that we can visit there and "maybe curious George lives in Georgia!" he said:)
We're getting our summer chore chart ready and realizing we'll be gone a huge chunk of it, but that's ok:) The kids will need to do some chores at your house Faylene, if that's ok:) Our plans are finalized  for those who didn't catch it from email. We will get to Idaho late June 29th.  We'll go to UT to spend a few days with my family there on July 24th.  Corey will do some coming and going from TX to work, but the rest of  us are there to stay.  The kids are all ecstatic.
Love you all! See you soon!


Here's Nori.  She's become a great reader and loves participating in scriptures in the morning.  The curler heads were my favorite:)

 Maddie sang at a concert in the park.  I didn't get a picture of her at the microphone, but that's where we're at here.  She did a great job.

 They had an art table set up at this park.  I don't think he realized how many kids I had when he motioned me over to have them make a puppet

 I couldn't resist taking a picture during primary of Ephraim in his sunbeam class at church (I play the piano) They were doing a chicken dance.
