May

Kelly had to make a pinata for one of her classes.
She chose to make a Quetzal, her teacher's favorite bird.

 We had family pictures taken on a gorgeous day, in a pretty orchard.
I can't wait until I can share the resulting images!

 Josh found a 5-leaf clover.

Kelly marched in the Apple Blossom Parade, holding banners of honor. 
 Lilly was still dressed in her clothes from the photo session.


 I thought this was neat, that the daughter was with the mom.
 After the parade, and only about half of them are wearing their picture clothes.
I still love the colors though, with the perfect spring colors and blue sky.
 Lilly can text while walking, AND holding Anthony's hand.



 Another Sunday evening.
We had company for dinner, and then did Legos together.
 Josh's pyramid.
 Anthony was wiped out.
We've had hot weather lately, and his poor heart is having a hard time with the sudden weather change.
 Maggie with her creation.
We were given a bunch of lighted swords.
So, on May 4, we had a "May the fourth be with you" night.
 Maggie skinned her knee a week ago, and wanted me to post a picture of how it leaked blood through the band-aid and jeans.
 Anthony and I have been going to some park days with local ladies from church.
Worried about germs, we never really went to parks.
He is having so much fun!


 Andy came with us this week.
He and our friend's son were playing hide-and-seek.
Our friend couldn't find Andy in the really open park.
We were laughing so hard!
 Andy being a kid with Anthony.
 Anthony grabbed all the waffles that were on the counter (waiting to be frozen).
He didn't eat them all though.
 I just had to laugh when I got home from my meeting today.
Anthony had taken most all the extra cookies off the table and put them in his bowl.
He didn't eat all them either.
 Josh likes to break out into push-ups once in a while.
Tonight, he was showing us how he can do push-ups with his fists.
 Showing off muscles and farmer tan.
 A couple others of us were trying to do push-ups, so Anthony jumped on the floor and was doing them too!
When we recognized what he was doing, we all had a great laugh!
 Climbing onto Josh's back for a ride.


No, he can't be spoiled!

Spokane (early part of April that I missed!)

 Daniel was excited to buy this Pokemon hat thing.
 Josh is obsessed with Slender Man...
 Kelly went night hiking with friends, to prepare for a summer Trek (pioneer re-enactment).
She called halfway through saying she needed me to come pick her up and go to the hospital.
Her foot had slipped (not because of the dark), and her already weak ankle bent too far.
Her friends had to carry her down the mountain.
The picture does not do the swelling justice.
X-Rays showed no break, but rather a sprain.


 While at the ER, we saw one of Anthony's favorites, Jacquie.

 Lilly's uniform came in.

 Maggie got so sunburnt, it blended in with this shirt.

 We've been working on improving our Sabbath days.
Josh made cookies one Sunday.
 Daniel slept for a few hours.
 And of course, Anthony went out the dog door without pants on...naughty boy!
 Kelly and Lilly were nutty together.
 It's so fun when they have fun together.
Kelly looks like she's missing a leg.
It's in the back-kick.
 Josh likes his thinking pose lately.
 Kelly BEFORE
 Kelly AFTER
She donated 8 inches to Pantene, to benefit those who do not have hair.
 The cute, and simple apron I made!
