5 month Recap

Super quick summary of our last 5 months...Seriously has it been that long? I am the worst journaler/scrapbooker/blogger ever!!! (Of course we are choosing just to blog the good times over the last 5 months hahaha) The bad times have already been forgotten :)

Meg and Mrs. Westenskow, her third grade teacher
The amazing Derek pitching his magic pitches - Can you tell his Mom is his biggest fan??

Derek's Yankees team took first place with 15 wins and 1 loss this season
Jake got 3 straight years of a 4.0 gpa. Who does this?? Way to go Jake you little overachiever!
Jake's last day of 9th grade and middle school
Jake and his awards
Meg was Princess Diana at the "Wax Museum" at the school
Derek pitching for his Yankees team
Derek's band concert. He is a serious clarinet player.
Mel's first Mother's Day
Mother's Day - We were all so excited my mom was finally out of the hospital/rehab center!
Carson's blessing day, May 1, 2011
We are all loving every minute we get to spend with Baby Carson
Alan won President's Circle at Fidelity Investments. We got to go to a fun little all inclusive trip to Arizona in April.

Carson Wallace Powell was finally born on March 4, 2011. We all fell in love with him the second we saw him!

Jake lettered in swimming! Way to go Jake. Since the kid is still growing (we think), we are waiting to get his letterman's jacket til next year. Then Mom can wear it proudly!
Jake and friends at swim dinner
My sister Melanie was the cutest pregnant lady ever!!!
Derek got a baseball bear for Valentine's Day from cute Janine and they broke up shortly after.
Miss Meg signed up to be a mini cheerleader with our real cheerleader friend Andi. She got to do cartwheels at half time during a West Jordan basketball game.

That's Meg upside down - Good shot Alan the photographer!
