Paisley has lost tooth #2!
Adren and Eli still love eachother!
Adren still loves to dress up and play!
When Zeke gets something in his head he will not let up. We drove past Fat Cat's one afternoon and he asked if we could go there later with everyone. "Maybe" I responded. "Does maybe mean YES?" We kept hearing well into the evening how he just couldn't wait until we were all getting in the car to go bowling. Why not? So we made Zeke's wildest dream come true.

He's right! It was a fun time, and "maybe" does mean yes!

As we entered the school carnival, Zeke immediately noticed a kid with a painted face. Like I said, Zeke gets something in his head and it's hard to shake it. He wanted his face painted so bad. I showed him his tickets and how many it would take to paint his face. It wouldn't leave him with much left to do. That boy will not pass up a face painting opportunity.

And then he was happy as can be to hang out with me the rest of the evening.
And then Paisley wanted in on the fun.


One evening Jon took the big boys out for some fun. Paisley and Zeke soon noticed they were left behind, which made them sad. So we picked out a redbox and TV dinners and they had fun pic-nicking  in the boys room for the evening.
Shafer got tickets at the Conference Center for the Priesthood Session. Jon was really looking forward to it. All the boys met up at Trax and rode up together. He sent me this picture which really warms my heart. What a great picture of great men!
They went on to have quite the evening. Dinner, a movie~ then some mix-up with Shafer trying to catch Trax when it stopped running resulting in Cade backtracking to an IHop at 1am..... Jon really enjoyed himself. He mentioned he had been spending every weekend with this group with the hike to Timp and was sad to miss out on the next gathering helping move Cade and family into the new house. I love that these guys have such a great time together. Who knew???

The Exciting and Miscellaneous

 Zeke got his learners!!! This was easy-peasy, first try. He is an excellent driver, though he says he does not feel super confident. Maybe it is because it is kid number four, but I have all the confidence in him. What a guy! We had a fun family gathering at Cash's house. Fun because ALL of the Boc's were there. They haven't all been together for years- like since before Grayson's mission. They all gathered for Matt and Abby's 30th anniversary! Sooo sweet. Look at this bunch! I love this average summer day in the Geertsen household. I am working in my bathroom. I will share my game plan directly... Jonny... P-Day phone calls with Adren are the best. He just gets whomever is around, sometimes it's just the Parentals. I took this screenshot of Cade, Ashley and Jon all on Mount Timp! Many in the family joined that day. This is the second summit on that mountain in a month for Jonny! Just a pretty screenshot from the doorbell cam.   Paisley has been asked to Prom b...

May Celebrations and Love!

Our little Paisley and all of her little friends are graduating from High School and all of us mothers cannot believe it! My dear friend and current Young Women's President, Elin, set up a beautiful evening for the girls and mothers to celebrate each one of them. It was lovely and touching and very special. These girls are the best! Despite the scaffolding that has been a staple for way too many weeks I care to count, I always appreciate our coming-to-life spring yard. Everything is filling in nicely. It is amazing how big our trees and bushes have become in hardly no time! But that scaffolding! You can't really tell, but it is quite the maze to get in the front door. The porch area may need to be removed just so that people can enter safely on the Homecoming Day.  My friend Kelly reminded our CRU when we replaced our faces onto her family portrait when she arrived home from living abroad for a time. We so funny! More windows being installed. Hooray! I snapped these as I headed...

Happy Anniversary to Jon & Lindsey!

Happy 25 Years to us! We spent the weekend at Snowbird at the lovely resort. It was all so pretty! Our room had such gorgeous views of the mountainside. I texted this pic to Adren of Pfeifferhorn, a mountain he summited with his dad once. I looked at that, marveling that my boy has been there! We took the tram up to the top of the mountain to enjoy panoramic views all around. One of the days it was nice to say, "The only thing on our schedule is a tram ride and dinner reservations". After so much hussle, it was nice to not have a whole lot to do. Chillin' with Jonny was really nice and good for us. It was a good reminder that we really enjoy each other. I mean, we knew that, but it is nice to spend a weekend together when you don't have a million other things going on. When we got back, I dived right back into our big event at work, our annual Give Hope Gala. This one was fun because Jon got to attend with me. It was a fun evening with him and my work friends. Off we ...
