In the merry month of May

I can't believe the month of May is over. I think this is the busiest I have been in a long time. It was CRAZY! Here are some highlights of our busy but fun wonderful month of May....

Baseball has taken over our life. Its so much fun and my little man loves the game. I love getting to watch him play. He is a good little player! He even hit an in the park homerun this year and got some good pitching time. :)

Macy turned 6!!!! I can't believe my baby is ready for 1st grade!




Of course, we had to have a Hannah Montana party...compete with guitar cake.

We had her party at a pottery place. Each kid got to paint a tile. It was so fun. Crazy but fun!



Holly and family, Ash and Avery got to join in on the fun. I was SO glad they came!




Me and my baby girl. She melts my heart.






OK...Here is Teacher Appreciation Week. Oh my, can you say overboard? These schools! These Moms....HA!





Then, my sweet niece, Mindy graduated from Texas A&M. We are so proud of her. I felt like one of my kids were graduating. I have known her since she was 2. I was teary eyed watching her walk across that stage. She is one remarkable woman! I am proud to be her aunt.




This is Mindys sweetheart, Will. Isn't he a cutie! And he is just as sweet. He treats Mindy like a princess! And just look at that pic of Troy and Will.....Mindy and I think they look like long lost brothers! We had went bowling that night and they has us laughing so hard. Don't you think they look similar?? Troy just has 15 years on him! Haha!




Macy LOVES her Mindy!






Daddy trying to teach Macy how its done. Troy is a pretty good bowler!






Now, next...Macy's dance recital! Its is always held at the Opera House in Galveston. It is a BIG deal! They work on the dances all year. This year she danced to "On the Good Ship Lollipop" and "Be Our Guest" (from Beauty and the Beast). It was SO cute! And I thought she looked just adorable! Here she is looking like Shirley Temple. Granny and Van made the trip to see her. We were so glad. I am mad that we didn't get a picture of them with her. Sorry, Granny! What was I thinking? We love you and am so glad y'all came. Avery and Ashley also made the trip! I think Avery loved the dancing. Her face lit up and she was clapping when the first little dancers came out! I love that girl!! Her facial expressions are priceless! It was a fun day with everyone. We all went our to eat at Tortugas afterwards. We sure missed Neena and Papaw. Paps was at home puking his guts up. Sorry Paps!




Here is the class doing their best Belle dance from Beauty and the Beast!





My sweet little Belle really concentrating!







The family after the performance! Reid was so glad it was over! HA





Then....drumroll, please.....I turned 35. Enough said. My sweet husband did get me some good presents, flowers and a yummy cake. Thanks, honey...I love you!






And lets don't forget field day! What a hot month for field day. Whose idea was that?







Reids favorite part of field day....water guns!








Reids class in a major tug-of-war competition!




Now do you see why I haven't been blogging? WHEW! I'm glad May is over. Oh, and in all this, I had strep throat and Macy had pink eye. I really had no time to be sick! HA! Troy took off work for a few days so I could lay in bed. Boy, that felt good. Well, not to be sick but to be in my bed with the door shut....AH, pure bliss!

So glad to see the recital pics. I am so hoping for a private performance complete with costumes. We hated to miss that day so much. I am exhausted just reading all your post. I would say that things will calm down but they won't. So, I won't lie. You are making such an impact on your children's life by being so involved. Enjoy your very full and sweet life. Just don't forget along the way to take care of you too. Cause your mommy loves you too!

You snapped great pictures at the recital--so close. Macy looks so proud!
Field Day looks like it was a blast.
