It’s rained so much since we put the set up – the kids are just now really getting out to enjoy it! Here they are having a “picnic” on their table!
We made a treasure chest that I had to hide and they would search to find it.
Can you find it below?
Spotted.
I decided to get ready for summer and did my toes a bright red/orange. Conlee of course had to have hers too!
Crawford was so excited about Trenton’s birthday party at Boingo Bounce. This place is amazing.
Bo and I forgot to have the guys install the wheel and telescope. Thankfully no power tools were needed – so we managed!
Bo and I finally broke down and got the kids a swing set. We’ve battled over size, price, etc. I promise this was a bigger purchase than any house or car I’ve ever bought (not in price but just in the agony over choices).
A HUGE thanks to Matt Britt and his team at True Value. They came out yesterday and put the entire thing together. Bo and I would have NEVER been able to finish this. Worth every penny :)
The kids are beside themselves they are so happy :)
I woke up to find amazing Mother’s Day presents waiting for me!
The best was a framed canvas of the pic from the kids in Rosemary last year. This will hang in my house for the rest of my life.
No, I didn’t get flowers from Flora. I used an old vase/box I’d gotten from there and picked the peonies out of my yard!
Love the pics below!
The bad part about Easter being so late in the year is that my folks couldn’t come up for Mother’s Day. Matt and I sent her the pic below.
The sweet posy Crawford made me at Sunday school. I love our church. So blessed that the kids have such a great church program to learn about God.
I hosted Mother’s Day brunch. I know – you are supposed to get cooked for on Mother’s Day – right? Not me. I LOVE to cook so this was the treat I gave myself. Bo bought “good” champagne for the mom’s to drink :)
Sue-Sue made 2 incredible quiches. Hands down – brunch is my favorite meal!
My kids really know how to turn it on. When there’s an audience – they deliver.
Crawford made this picture for me.
My amazing mother-in-law and her one and only child. She’s been a mom and great friend to me over the past 16 years!
To my own Momma – I missed you so much today. You give so much of yourself and do so much for all of us – and you never ask for anything in return. I love you to pieces. Am so blessed to have you as such a wonderful Mom and an even better friend. You’ve made me into the Mother I am and I’m so thankful.
I LOVE YOU!
We were supposed to have the school picnic before Easter but had to postpone due to all of the rain! This afternoon was gorgeous!
Love the pic below!
Today was the last soccer game of the season. We’ll play again in the fall, but next spring – we’ll probably be playing baseball! I was scared Crawford would be upset because when they broke into teams – he wasn’t on Cole and Julian’s team. But, he didn’t care at all. He was on the field next to the one where big kids were playing baseball. We caught him on several occasions staring at the field and he even asked the coach if they could go play that!
Amanda took the pic below. Doesn’t he look like he’s 10?
The boys.
The most exciting part was the kids found a turtle on the playground!
Love that Cole will always protect Crawford! In the pic below he’s telling him not to go near it.
Crawford just had to touch it.
So of course Conlee did! After that Cole agreed to touch it :)
