While the girls were finishing up their Stage Kids session and the kids were doing ALL their extra school activities, our May has also been busy with all the other things as well.
We celebrated Mother's Day with both sides of the family (where I took no pictures.) We also celebrated my Dad's birthday at the beginning of May and my birthday in the middle of May. Lots of fun celebrations with family...and lots of yummy food and desserts and fun activities to go with it.
The girls and I spent a Saturday afternoon cheering on Elliott at the junior high state track meet. His 4 X 400 meter relay got 5th place. So exciting!!
Zach and Staley attended Cade's high school graduation. Hard to believe he's already done with high school and will be heading off to college in the fall. Where does time go??
The girls' Rising Stars group performed as the pre-show for the Bloomington cast of Music Man, Jr. We decided to stay and watch the show, which we all really enjoyed.
We skipped right over spring weather, going from cold and rainy days to HOT and sunny days. The kids enjoyed a few opportunities to play in the sprinkler or with squirt guns with neighborhood friends.
With some major staffing shortages, I've been working more days and putting in more hours at work to help keep the department afloat while we are in a transitional period.
We filled in the rest of our free time with lessons, library volunteering, play dates with friends, reading, trying to keep up with jobs around the house, and preparing for our summer of fun. It's been a crazy few weeks, but it's about time to transition into summer...and I can't wait!
