May in Review

Rulon's patriotic program was great, he sang and did all the motions and smiled , well, grinned his brains out!

 A handsome man dug up our weeds and planted me a great little garden.  It's so hard to find good help these days, I had him move in.  Bold, I know, but he's a definite keeper!!

 Rhodes is a snuggler, he wants to be held all of the time.  He is so handsome and we all love him to bits.

 Mina keeps a close watch on me and sounds the alarm (cries wildly) if I leave her side.  She is desperate for mama time, I do my best.

 Mads had his end of the year preschool program.  For the 2nd year in a row he looked as handsome as can be while not singing a single word.

He sure likes his teacher though.  So do we, she is fantastic.  Look out Kindergarten, here comes Mads!

 Rhodes has been smiling at us for weeks now.  Melt my heart!!!

Water, goggles, sandals and bath colors make one happy girl.

 Two cowboys and a pirate (yes a pirate - that would be Rulon) going fishing.

 Mads in his element! Notice the muddy jeans clear up to his knees.  Joy.

Mina's first fishing trip.

Is there a cuter sight than this? Nope.  Good thing you can't see her busted up nose, lip and chin... she kissed the sidewalk first thing and it took Chester a while to calm her down and lift her spirits.  Good job daddy, we love you!

And that does it for May kids!

Happy 5th Birthday Mads!

A pile of presents, a cool birthday cake, and a happy happy birthday boy!!

Ingredients for a great day!

 Mads requested a Siddeley the spy jet birthday cake.

Mom delivered.

 Mads got some cool presents, this one is from Grandma & Grandpa Fairbourn...

a ship in a bottle,

"Oh, how did they even know I wanted one of these forever?!"

 Blowing our his candles.

(Poor Siddeley couldn't handle the heat in the kitchen, he started to melt and slide around the cake, made him kind of funny looking... but DELICIOUS!)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to a delightful and loving son.
