A lot happened in May, 2 birthdays, Mother's day, Preschool graduation, and the end of school.

Happy birthday Mark! His request was a non sugary dessert so we went with banana bread.
Abigail & Elena wrapped a few presents all on their own (the moving box and diaper box). I was totally unaware of them till gift opening. One was filled with toilet paper and the other was paper penguins that they drew.
And then a few days later we celebrated my birthday! We started it off with a Cystic Fybrosis walk to raise research money. With the lung problems Christine has had, we are more aware of the difficulties these families go through. We did get her tested for CF a few months ago, but her test was negative. We are hoping that as she gets bigger, she will outgrow these problems with viruses. Back to the birthday... it was a great day.

Memorial Day! Fun run in the morning where Adriana ran/walked the whole mile and we enjoyed pancakes afterwards. Swimming in the afternoon, BBQ dinner with potato salad and scrambled cheeseburgers (They were homemade and the patties didn't stay together), and a trip to the cemetery to leave flowers on the graves. The funny thing about that was it started pouring as we were driving, we decided to do it anyway, got completely soaked, and the rain stopped by the time we got home. And some of the girls were sporting their princess attire. Always a fun adventure.
Wow! Sorry for the long post, but it was a great month. Here comes summer :)
