Time for School!


School is back in session for the Wolfley home. (it is a year later than my last post.oops)
Natalie headed back to Corte Sierra in 2nd grade. She has Mrs. Mueller for her teacher and had a great first day. Her teacher is actually in our church congregation so that should prove to be fun.

Meghan began Kindergarten at Corte Sierra with Miss Paulson as her teacher. We are thrilled for her to be with her since we learned to love Miss Paulson with Natalie in her class for 2 years. Meghan was very excited to ride the bus and eat her lunch at school. She had a great day too.

Elena began 5th grade at Trivium Archway School, a charter school with the Great Heart Schools. She absolutely loved her first day and couldn't say enough good things. Her teacher is Mrs. Washburn and Elena likes her. We are glad she liked it so much because this was a long and hard decision to make to attend a new school. So after day one...things look good.

I had a fun day with the boys and my nieces (Charlotte and Audrey). Little Vern is excited to do some preschooling at home with me...time to get organized.

With school starting I am planning on being better with my posts...maybe even catch up on a year in our lives.

School is Out for the Summer!

Natalie and Miss Paulson (kindergarten teacher)

The last day of school for the kids was last Friday 5/21. Here are a few pictures of Natalie's Kindergarten Celebration. She had a fun year. I asked her on the way home which year she liked better of Kindergarten, at Heritage Charter School or Corte Sierra Elementary, she quickly replied Corte. She had a great teacher for her and was able to make good friends. I am so glad that she got to do Kindergarten for a second time, since she has a late birthday.

We have had a fun first week of Summer Vacation. Elena and Natalie are on swim team and swimming everyday and loving it. Thanks to the Galloways for helping with driving. Each of them tell me at dinner that their favorite part of the day was swim team. The kids have really played well together and are doing their summer jobs. It has been great. We also love the lunch and dinner program at the middle school next door. The kids get lunch and dinner for free and love it. They have quite the variety of food this year. They are happy to get different food, I am happy because they get to eat new food (meaning not PBJ or mac and cheese) and my dishes are limited to breakfast, my lunch and Vern's and my dinner dishes. Plus I get to make food we like that the kids turn their nose up to. Thank you federal food program.
Here's too a fun filled summer...and only 49 days til we go to NY!!!!!!! The kids won't stop asking!

Litchfield Park Ward Campout


Natalie and Benjamin on the camp out!
Our ward went on our annual camp out to the Playground Campground in Mingus Mt., Near Prescott and Jerome, AZ. We had a blast! We loved visiting with friends, shouting family cheers, eating a yummy breakfast, trying to stay warm on a very cold night, climbing a dirt hill, riding quads and rangers, playing games and enjoying cool weather doing the day. It was awesome!

Crazy Hair Day



May 14th was Crazy Hair Day at Corte Sierra Elementary. The girls used our hair paint left over from Halloween, It was fun. A week later Natalie still has pink streaks in her hair.

Weekend at Pine Top

We had a very fun weekend in Pine Top, AZ at the Layton Cabin on May 7-9th. Clarke and Heather Layton invited us up to play for the weekend and that is what we did. Forgive me for the numerous pics. Just so much fun.

Vern brought up his Dad's four wheelers and it was so much fun riding them all over with the kids. They loved them and would have ridden them everywhere! The Layton's had a small one perfect for the kids which they loved! This was my first time riding 4 wheelers and it was fun!




When the 4 wheeler riding was done they went on the zip line and loved it as well.



The kids played so well and the weather was perfect.



A big thanks to the Laytons for letting us join them for a wonderful Mothers Day Weekend.

Mother Day Makeover in Kindergarten

Natalie gave me a Makeover for Mother's Day in her Kindergarten class. She did a great job. She was disappointed that I have very little make up. But she put a TON of clips in my hair. It was a fun hour to spend with me as she spoiled me with cookies and water. The Evans and Higas are in Natalie's class so we all posed together.


Mom and Natalie. The Wolfleys, Evans and Higas after the Makeover!

31 Cent Baskin Robins Ice Cream Night

On April 29th we got in line at our local Baskin and Robbins to enjoy our 31 cent scoop night. The kids love it and so do I. The each got 2 scoops of what ever flavor they wanted, and most got rainbow sherbet and cotton candy. It sounds gross to me, but they at it. I enjoyed my peanut butter cup and mint chocolate chip, separately of course. Vern got there just in time to eat his tasty ice cream. When we finished we went home and ate dinner. Dessert first is always nice!
Little Vern and Meghan!
Elena, Natalie and Benjamin!
