Girls and Boys weekend

 On Friday, May 26, Eden had her class trip to Wild Rivers and Ryder had his end of the year awards ceremony:

Ryder was recognized for leadership, enthusiasm and leadership in Physical Education.
We weren't surprised... 
Eden loved making memories with her little besties!
Not photoed:  Ryder and two of his best buddies went to see the new Super Mario movie with girls from their school.  It was their first co-ed event off campus and it felt big ad monumental.  No one is girlfriend/boyfriend, but it felt big all the same. It must be documented and here is where I will mention it.❤︎ 
After those festivities, Ryder and Kit headed up to Lake Arrowhead with our Biola Crew for a Father/Son weekend as part of a rites of passage for the dads with boys that are in their teens and coming of age.  It was a sacred time.  The dads have plans out until the boys are 18.  I am so thankful for this community.
While they were gone, Eden and I capitalized on a girls time alone complete with sushi at our favorite spot, Thrifty's ice cream, and a trip to Daiso and Good Will for some thrifting.
It was all so sweet and memories were made and our hearts are all so thankful for the people in our lives and they family that we get to share it with!
