for those of you that are still upright and haven't fainted at the sheer sight of a new posting by yours truly...hold on to your seats because this might be a long one. it might also be very short if i faint due to the sheer enormity of the task at hand. anyway, blah blah blah....here are some pictures that just might document the entire month of may. wow, i really need to get some motivation...

| the proverbial decorating of the eggs. thank goodness for this messy yet oh so lovely tradition of making something beautiful out of something so ordinary. isn't that just so special?? i am just learning all about the real art of photo taking, but it was uber-fun to watch the kids have so much fun and try to capture it on film or a digital memory card as it were. |
 |
| not sure if the headless one of sofi is creative and artistic or just creepy...we'll go with cute, shall we? |
 |
| trent and his (not so) little dudes came over for luke's first egg hunt outside thanks to the sun deciding to actually shine on easter eve. good times... |
 |
| not sure...i just thought this one of sofi was nothing short of hilarious. |
 |
| we've been working on creative ways to get luke to actually learn to write his whole name and not stop after the u...it actually worked and smelled pretty good too :) |
 |
| my uncle passed away a couple weeks ago and andy and i were able to make the trip down for the funeral. it was really awe-inspiring to see firsthand, the 21 gun salute and the reverent folding of the flag. he was a great man and i'm proud to have known him and his sweet, lovely wife. |
 |
| some of my favorite people in the world...cousin sandi, uncle glen and cousin sydney. love you guys! |
 |
| luke and andy's mom, rebecca on mother's day. thank goodness for that woman and her joyful chocolates. |
 |
| luke (and sofi, who wouldn't be left out...messy face and all) and his cousin adam, showing off their super watches |
 |
| dozer days!!! oh the awesomeness that is tiny people getting to operate heavy machinery... |
 |
| {she might've been a little sleepy...} |
 |
| planting his first tomato...that now may or may not be the cat's first choice to do her business. it was fun while it lasted |
 |
| what is the first thing to do when the sun comes out? why, buy 52 washable sidewalk chalk crayons of course!! |
