Some of May...

Where did May go???

Here is a little bit of what went on in our busy month. :)

Owen did indeed graduate from Kindergarten.  He was so proud and we are proud of him.

 **********************************************************************************
Our garden has been growing by leaps and bounds and the strawberries have been extra good this year.  We have had to pick DAILY.  So far, we've just froze them so that we can make jam when time slows down a bit - a good part of them have been eaten though.....or gone into smoothies. :)

*****************************************************************************

We've gone fishing twice this month.  We have discovered that Megan is our fisherman.  She is the only one that is patient enough to just sit and reel the fish in - all the others go into hysterics and scream and holler and yank the poor fish to pieces before they get it to shore. :)

Owen's learning from Megan.

Kristyn was quite jealous of Megans fish.

Krisyn FINALLY was able to be calm enough to actually get the fish in.  She was beyond happy and who knows what Owen's deal is. :D

********************************************************************************
Last day of school!  I think Owen grew a foot at least.......

Our awards night was decorated very nicely.  Don't you love the servers?

Keith and Mr. Prior built this log cabin - I wanted to move it to the woods and live in it. :)

Kristyn with her class.  Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of Owen with his class.

Kristyn got highest GPA for the entire school
Owen got third highest in his class
We are so proud of them!

************************************************************************
I had a very nice Mother's Day!

********************************************************************************
This month, I got to take pictures for the best pastor in the world - and his family! :)

*********************************************************************************

 Kristyn lost her first top tooth - long story short, she had the rope swing in her mouth and was climbing up to get a higher jump and fell and the rope helped her tooth come out. :)

Little monkeys!

More from this month coming next.....

A Big Day Today...

More to come later.....

New Garden + Rain =

 It's cold, Momma!

Hosed off and ready for the shower...

I'm going to go kiss my washing machine now!

The Tire Park..

Over the weekend, we had a surprise visit from Dr. George.  He needed a place to stay, so he gave us a call.  He was a blast to be with and the kids all loved him.  Megan affectionately called him, "Georgie-Porgie" much to my embarrassment. He loved it though. :D

After he left on Saturday, we decided to go hang out at the tire park - Totally cool place (according to the kids)

 

There's more than one way to get across

 when your legs are too short. 

Ashlyn wanted to prove that she was a big girl, too.  She did make it to the first bar.

A perfect day!

 Somebody loves her daddy!

They all decided they wanted to see what they look like when they run. Yes, there is a reason Mommy was not part of this idea. :)~ I'd rather not know what I look like. Ha!!

 Thanks for sharing our day with us.  You are the greatest bunch of friends and family a person could ask for. :)
