Busy Bees - May

I'm sure May will always be a BUSY time in my life, at least for the next 18+ years while I have children in school...but this May has to have been one of the craziest. Somehow we survived daily showings and the eventual selling of our first home (sniff) and moved to a much larger but very nearby house. My second semester of grad school officially ended, and I made the decision to skip summer school (GOOD decision). And in between all that, we had the usual kid fun. Which is the important part!

Noah proudly shared his Flat Stanley project with his kindergarten class. He was so fortunate to have the help of Dan's good friend, Shae's godfather, and world traveler Paul Murello.

Noah's first field day was a lot of fun. His class took the prize in the tug-of-war contest thanks to expert coaching by one of the parents, Noah's soccer coach, Coach Pat.

We enjoyed a trip with my mom and sister to a blueberry patch in Pilot Point. Twelve pounds of blueberries later, I was very thankful for my vacuum sealer and extra freezer space.

Noah was recognized for good citizenship at the end of year award assembly.

I didn't take many pictures of the crazy moving process, but here's one of the end results of moving -- the kids found random toys they didn't even know we had!

Also, my brother got Confirmed at St. Patrick Cathedral in Fort Worth, and I had the honor of being his sponsor. I was very proud!
