Maddie's Graduation

Maddie graduated from Skyline High School on June 2, 2011. Top 10% of her class, Honors at Entrance scholarship at the University of Utah just like Chase. We're pretty lucky to have 2 great kids and I can't help but say I'm very proud of them both. Craig's goal was to be here for this and he definitely was. He's doing very well and we feel so very lucky.

Hawaii

To celebrate Maddie's graduation, our 28th Anniversary, my birthday and Craig's birthday, we spent the last week of May on Oahu, Hawaii. 4 days in a condo on Waikiki and 3 days in a beach house on the North Shore. I celebrated my 51st birthday snorkeling in Hanauma Bay.

We ate dinner at the Hula Grill in Honolulu

Visited Pearl Harbor and the Arizona Memorial

Chase celebrated his 1st birthday! (or some kid named Chase)

Here's Craig boogie boarding on his almost 56th birthday! We spent the early morning hours of his birthday sleeping on benches in Portland's airport and the rest of it recovering from our night sleeping on benches! Oh what we do for cheaper flights!

Zions + Me

Chase and his friend Mason Brewer entered a contest by Zions Bank to create a 1 minute video with the title "Zions + Me".

He just found out he won 2nd place, $1,500!! The first place video was the pirate one (in case you looked at them before). That guy must have a lot of friends on Facebook.

Way to go Chase!
