So after our trip to Hawaii John was complaining about not being able to hear out of his left ear, he had a sinus thing going on, so we thought that was maybe the problem and he took antibiotics for 10 days and still he could not hear out of his ear.......so i bought an ear wax softner and we put drops in his ear, but he said it was worst!! so on mothers day I made him go to the urgent care. ( he had refused to goto the doctors because it would just be a waste of time) So while we are waiting to see the Dr. at the urgent care john tells me how he's gonna be telling me I told you so when we are done!! Ya to bad I got to tell him told you so!! He had so much wax build up, that the Dr. could not see inside his ear!! so 8 flushes with w surrenge and look what came out!! Yes that is a huge piece of wax!! He can now hear!! and we have hidden the Q-tips from him since he loves to clean his ears out daily, which is what caused his problem!! Lesson learned-DO NOT use Q-tips every day!! Also listen to your wife, cause the wax softner would have eventually solved your problem :)

LAST DAY OF FIRST GRADE

Jacob was in first grade this year, and he had an amazing teacher. I got to help out in his class 2 times a week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I also got to help with class parties or any other fun thing that was going on. This was a very fun year at school for Jacob, he learned so much, and became really good at reading, spelling and math. We will miss Mrs. Hengle, I told her she could Keep Jacob back in first grade and we could have her next year, But when we got his report card it was recommend he move onto second grade. On a happy note we will see Mrs. Hengle this next year school, at all the football games because her daughter is on the varsity squad with Jessie. Also another fun thing-Jessie had Mrs. Hengle for first grade....

This is just a few things I have been doing. Strawberry jam and lots of it!! I thought I had made plenty, but Jeremy calculated that what I had made was not enough, so more jam was made!! I think we have plenty now!! Also cherries, when they finally ripened we had a ton this year, we could not pick them fast enough or invite friends over to pick them. Jacob help me pit the cherries we froze a lot of them, he became very good at using the pitter!!

Jacob was honored for being a scholar athlete for baseball this spring, it was a very fun evening and also fun to see how many of his team was there being honored!! Good job Jacob!! We are very proud of all your good work you do!!

Hawaii

In April we had the chance to go to Hawaii for a week, and Jacob was the lucky kid who got to go with us. He also got to fly first class. We did lots of things on our trip, but Jacob said the most fun was 1-swimming in the ocean, 2-playing games with Scott and Katie, and 3-flying first class!! We meet up with the Town's family and had an amazing time!! We went to the Polynasian culture center, and Pearl Harbor, than we flew to Maui for 5 days of fun!!

Jessie got her braces off after 2 years. Look how straight those teeth are!!
