Comings and Goings of part of the Call Family this Spring

 Addie has won the heart of all of us.  I am so glad to have her around.  She follows me around the house all day and sleeps on the couch or the floor under my feet as I watch tv or work.  I can't imagine life without her.  She is such a great little buddy.  I've actually gotten her to wear a bow on occasion and today she's worn it all day long.  I'll make her girlie after all.
 Joel and the kids ran the SA BYU Alumni 5K.  I walk/ran it, but they ran the WHOLE way.  They are holding up how many minutes they ran it in.  Jack took 4th place in boys ages 1-12 and Brooklyn took 4th in the girls 1-12.  It's pretty amazing because the girls who got 1st-3rd were all 12 and the boys were 9+.  Jack and Brooklyn represented the young ones well!
 We celebrated Britni's birthday and Jack sported a head lamp the whole time.  It was hilarious and I felt like it was blog worthy stuff.
 I kept Perri one morning and she slept so peacefully.  I couldn't resist this tender picture. 

On Memorial Day we took a trip to the Fort Sam National Cemetery.  It was such a good experience.  Britni took some amazing pictures and I thought I would share them.    I love the one with the reflection in Brooklyn's glasses.  That one should be in a magazine.
 Jack was so good at picking up the flags that had fallen. 
We even found Joel's bestfriend from high school, who passed away a few years ago.  It's always a great feeling when you go to a National Cemetery, but it's a little hard when it's someone you know.
After we had a BBQ at mom and dad's.  I love this picture of Perri and Addie...both wanting desperately to be outside with the big kids.  They stood like this for a long time.

Your puppy is so cute! Wish you lived closer so she could come play with Dexter! I can't believe how big Joel's kids are! They are adorable.
