We went to CO for two weeks.  The first week was my little brother, Damon's, graduation from the Air Force Academy.  The 2nd week was a Kirkpatrick family reunion in Nathrop, CO.

Playing Hedbanz with Grandma K, Uncle Damon, and cousins 

This was the first annual AFA LDS baccalaureate.  Elder Bednar came and spoke.  The LDS AFA cadet choir sang and Damon is in the choir. 

My mom and sisters.  Just missing my sister Courtney

At one of Damon's awards ceremonies

Waiting for another award's ceremony to start.  We had lunch before it started and this is in one of Damon's classrooms

Grandpa K got to teach the grandkids all about the planes on the ceiling while we ate lunch

Courtney and Mitch's gender reveal.  They're having a boy!

Damon's commissioning ceremony.  My dad got to commission him, 46 years after my dad was commissioned in the Air Force.  It was pretty special.

Air Force Graduation

President Obama gave the commencement speech

Last day of Preschool

The theme was Hawaiian

Lexi with Ms. Allison

Lexi's 4th birthday.  She wanted a puppy party

Out to lunch

She wanted an "Elsa" hairstyle with a 4th of July ribbon :)

That's one way to eat a sub :)

Trip to Arizona with my sister, Beth, and her 3 littlest ones

The girls with their cousin Doug

Addy loves her cousin, Zyna

We went to Out of Africa on our way back to Utah

The tour guide held the giraffe food in his teeth and the giraffe gave him a kiss

Addy recently started gymnastics.  It didn't take her long to learn a backbend

I volunteer in Addy's kindergarten class.  Lexi loves getting to do some activities with her sister

Preschool "graduation"

She still has another year of preschool, but the program was so fun to watch.  They learned a lot of sign language at Lexi's preschool.  It was fun to watch them sing and sign

One reason I went to Arizona was to get cousin pictures on Steve's side of the family.  His brothers each have one girl.  It was fun getting their pictures taken, but really difficult too!
