May 2019

Let's start with Flowers!  The tulips and daffodils were gorgeous this year.  Then, my kids got me the most beautiful flowers for Mother's Day.  I love flowers! Just wish they would last longer!

Ryder loves A&W, and whenever we go there, he wants a picture in front of the bear.  Molly even got to go one day.

May 10 - Clark came to play for a little while in the morning, then Molly came later and we went to the park at Jensen's Grove.  Molly thought it was really funny to give Hallie a bath in the sink.

May 11 - We got to spend some time with this sweet Hallie girl while her parents were gone boating.

May 13 - Molly invited me to go to Yellowstone Bear World with her for a Preschool field trip.  We had fun driving through the park seeing all the bears.  Molly wasn't real sure about petting the deer.  She had a great time on the rides with Nikelle.  Hallie was there too, but for some reason I didn't get a picture of her.

May 18 - Ryder loved this big bus in front of Discount Tires. We went to Rupe's with Brian and his kids, somehow Brian got to sit in the booth with all the kids.

May 23 - Ryder's 4th birthday! He got to spend the day with me.  We went to Walmart and he picked out a present, then we went to Dominoes for pizza.  He loved watching them make the pizzas.  Then we had cupcakes.  Just as we started singing to him, he banged his finger between the chair and the table.  Poor boy.

May 25 - Ryder's party at Leo's Place.  It was a Blaze themed party.  He loved it! All the kids loved playing in the play place..

May 27 - Memorial Day - We all met at Brody's grave on a very chilly, windy, rainy day. You can only see Hallie's little head in the group picture, she was all snuggled into Jared's jacket.  I love celebrating our Sweet Brody, he'll always be in our hearts.

We went up the hill to Mark, Helen and Terry's graves.  It was raining pretty hard when we got up there, but we took the time to take a few fun pictures.

After the cemetery, we ate lunch at Chick-fil-A, then we came back to our house.  Clark and Molly cleaned up this baby seat so Hallie could try it out.  I think she liked it.  We also went to see the movie "Aladin" later in the afternoon, it was really good!

May 29 - We sold our renovated '65 Ford Pickup to Blake's cousin Gerald.  Courtney and Ryder were the only ones around, so they came to say Goodbye.  It was loaded onto this car hauler for the trip back to Las Vegas. It was kind of sad, but it was the right thing and the right time to sell it.

May 30 - Annie's Kindergarten graduation! This tall cutie pie looked so pretty and did such a good job in her graduation program.  When her teacher, Miss Austin asked her what her favorite thing about Kindergarten was, she looked Miss Austin in the eye and said "you".  How sweet.  Nikelle, Molly and Hallie were there too, and Maden got out of his class to come watch.  Way to go Annie, now on to bigger adventures.

May 31 - Blake took Ryder fishing at Jensen's grove.  These are his attempts at a selfie with a wiggly fish.  Maden, Annie and Clark came to spend the night, and enjoyed some hot tub time with Grandpa.
