June

We started out the month with the annual ortho pig roast.  The kids had a great time and swam for about 2 hours.  I took them home and Fred stayed to have more fun. 

June 6th Adilene started a new phase of her chemo.  We were warned that this is a pretty intense round of chemo where it takes her first 8 weeks of chemo and condenses it into 6 weeks.  We were all pretty worried about hospital stays this month because we assumed that she would end up there.  I think it was a combination of things like how amazing Adilene is and Fred and I becoming germ freaks but we managed to stay out of the hospital. 

Blaiden wrapped up his first soccer season.  He got a metal at the end of the season and he was so happy because he thought they finally won a game.  I thought for sure that he wouldn't want to play again but he was very disappointed it was over and says he is excited about playing next year.  This picture makes me laugh because all the kids are sitting nicely except Blaiden.  This was kind of his attitude during the entire season. 

It seems like every weekend in June we had something going on.  First was the pig roast, and next was Blaiden's last soccer game.  The 3rd weekend, Friday Blaiden and I went out on a date.  We went to Finding Dory, to the mall to ride motorized animals, and ate cinnamon rolls. That night Fred and Blaiden slept outside in the tent.  He felt so special to have a day where he had so much fun going on.  Fred was on call this weekend and so Saturday I took the kids to a strawberry festival.  We had so much fun picking our own strawberries.  Adilene was covered in juice by the end of the day, it was so fun and they were delicious!

The last weekend in June is always a fun one for Fred and I.  We get all dressed up to celebrate the graduating residents.  One night is for all the programs and the next is the Ortho roast.  It is such a fun time to get together with everyone, many of my friends are from other programs and so I love these parties.
