The Month of May

{This is just a little re-cap of the month of May.}

Jared graduated from 6th grade this year! He will be going on to Jr High in the Fall! His school held a Medieval Festival where all the sixth graders created and ran their own booths selling jewelry, treats, games, fortune tellings, etc. It was very cool!

This is Jared the Tanner!

He sold leather bracelets with custom beads!

Again, very cool!

I had a fun time and bought myself some pretty neat stuff!

So Jared wasn't the only Nevin to graduate this year!

Joel graduated from Orem High! His grad. invites were pretty cute with the invite made by Jessica, and his handsome grad picture snapped by Carolyn. He is lucky to have such artsy sisters!

And here he is all graduated! (and with a haircut)

Oh, and here's a pretty cute picture of Lincoln.

That kid can't get enough Spiderman, Ironman, Superman, & Batman!

 

In May we also had our LAGOON DAY! But I'm sure you heard all about that already!

Swimming with Shawn & Lincoln!

Lincoln is getting to be quite the swimmer.


So precious!

Lagoon Day!

Every year Andrew's work has a Lagoon Day. This year we brought Jared with us and had a blast! Last year, Wicked, which is the newest & best roller coaster was closed, so we made sure that it was the first ride we did this year! It was pretty awesome...I daresay "Wicked Awesome!"

Funny Story: Jared convinced us to ride the Cliffhanger at 11:30 AM. Now this particular ride seemed to be a water ride from what I could tell, but was convinced otherwise by both Jared and the man controlling the ride....HOWEVER we ended up sitting in what seemed to be the only three seats that were doused with water on the ride! Needless to say, it was pretty miserable with mascara running down my face & walking around completely drenched until we dried....hours later. Jared thought this was hilarious!

We enjoyed the (somewhat) historic town of Pioneer Village where we learned about telephones, carriages, and circus midgets!

just because it makes me laugh.

From Funny Girl onto Annie Get Your Gun!

A few days ago I was asked to Stage Manage Annie Get Your Gun for the Scera! Like Funny Girl, it is a part of their outdoor season. The show runs end of July - mid August, then an additional run at BYU for Education Week! I'm pretty excited about this opportunity! 

"Nervous, happy, scared, excited! You name it, I am it!" 

However, me switching over to Annie Get Your Gun means that I am finished working with Funny Girl. It's so strange to leave the show now when they are about to begin tech rehearsals! I've been with it from the beginning; it's just so strange to put so much work into a show and not get to see it through... 

But like I said this will be a very awesome opportunity for me: I am an official stage manager & the pay is better! Hopefully, I can continue working with the Scera on their upcoming season! 

"I think I'm gonna like it here!"

.........Oh, wait. different Annie......

More Rock Climbing Adventures!

                                                 

Just a little picture post so that you can know that we are alive & well! Now that the weather is finally nice and beginning to feel like Summer, we have been spending as much time outside as possible! And we have been rock climbing! I must say, that it does not come as easily for me, but I do try & I (almost) always make it to the top!

Now for the pictures:

                                              

                                              

 

*This last picture is of me climbing at night. I don't really know how I feel about night climbing just yet. There are too many worms/millipedes/weird insects lurking in the dark crevices of the rocks for me to feel comfortable about this.*
