May 2022

 

May 3 - This is not an old picture! It happened again!  I was changing the calendar and found wet carpet! The insulation was wet in the wall again, too! A guy came and did some fixing on the roof.  We hope this works this time!

May 5 - I got these beautiful flowers from Cindy and Ken! I love them! The carpet is dry, and the wall has been taped and textured.

May 7 - We celebrated Randy's 34th birthday at Longhorn Steakhouse.

May 9 - I got these beautiful flowers from Aubrey! I love them too!  When they pulled the paint tape off the ceiling, it also pulled the paint off the ceiling!

May 10 - Hallie enjoyed her food we got at Costa Vida, she knew exactly what she wanted.  Molly and I liked playing a matching game I made for our Primary class.  They got the ceiling fixed and repainted.

May 11 - The carpet is all laid back down, and the room all put back together!

Finally something is happening in the yard! They came and put the curbing in! It was a very interesting process to watch.  

May 12 - Hallie thought she was afraid of the rocking horse at Aunt Merralee's house. (Think back to the fair last year) But, she found out this was a pretty fun horse.  Then we went to McDonald's, she loves the play area and her ice cream cone.  Then, she did not have a nap when we  got home. Wink, Wink.

May 14 - Hallie loves to help her daddy mow the lawn!

May 15 - Finally a nice enough day to play some pickle ball!

Annie and Hallie had a great time playing on the trampoline.

There was sidewalk chalk fun, games with a big ball and a bunch of swinging.

We also had a little corn hole tournament. The tulips are gorgeous, and Hallie girl is so cute!

May 19 - Hallie is "not" napping again. Hehe.  Blake bought a May Day tree, hopefully we'll be able to plant it someday.

May 20 - I got to take Ryder to lunch and shopping!  He chose to eat at Pizza Hut, he loves the breadsticks there! Then we went shopping at Walmart, he knew he wanted a certain video game and some monster trucks.  We had a fun afternoon.

We got our front door painted! I love it! They also painted the window side of the patio door that had not ever been painted.

May 21 - Lagoon!  Molly was dancing at Lagoon, so Brian took his kids, Blake and Aubrey to see her dance and play at Lagoon.  They met Jared, Nikelle and kids there.  It was a good thing Blake went, so Brian could go do the big kid stuff and Blake could take Clark to the things he was tall enough for.

Cousin Michelle Cook and her family went to Lagoon too! They all had a great time!

May 22 - Fun times at Jared and Nikelle's house.  Games, food, riding people like horses and naps!

May 23 - Ryder turned 7! Look how he has grown! He is a very smart, happy, energetic, talkative, determined, fun loving, sweet boy. We love you, Ryder!

We went to have cake and ice cream to celebrate Ryder!

May 24 - I went to watch Maden run the 200 in his 6th grade track meet.  It was really great to see him come from almost last in his heat to come in 2nd! I was so glad that I went to watch him!

I drove from Idaho Falls to Pocatello to go to the temple, it was definitely worth the drive!

May 27 - We rented a little skid loader to bring some dirt into the yard, we had some rock delivered, they came and started to prepare the driveway to be paved, and Jared started laying down the black plastic.  

May 28 - Now, for some work to happen!  We rented a different skid loader to move more dirt around.  Brian came early to help get the loader from the rental place, then Jared came later and helped move the dirt.

Now, they get to move the rock into the space between the curbing and the house.  It was a lot of trips from the rock pile to the house.

They planted the tree!

The rock got placed all around the house.  It looks so good! The loader needed more weight to smooth it out in the front of the house, so Brian rode in the bucket.  We stored the loader in the garage for the rest of the weekend.

May 30 - Memorial Day - We went to the cemetery, but it was so rainy and cold that we only went to Brody's grave.

We needed a warm, dry place and ended up at Longhorn Steakhouse.  It was very yummy. 

May 31 - I braved the cold and wind to go watch Molly play baseball.  So fun to watch these grandkids in all their activities.
