Memorial Day Weekend

We headed to Lake Makenzie
for our yearly Memorial Day riding trip.
 
 

Only got stuck one time this trip.

 
There hasn't been much rain
so the trails were extra dusty.
 
 
 
 
 

Our little girl loves new toys!

 

Turtles going for a swim.


Marley keeps a close eye on them.


Time to clean it up!

Last Day of School

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the last day of school!
 
I have never been more ready for
summer!  This year was the worst
most stressful year we have ever had.
 
And good riddance to all the things that
have contributed to that!
 
This was the first day of
this school year...
 
 
and here they are on the last day.
 
 
 
 
 
I got them little sand castle buckets
filled with things for our vacation
to celebrate their last day.
 

We also went for pizza and headed
to the drive in to celebrate that evening.

Our Week

Little Miss has figured out that
if she jumps up in my garden beds
she can get even closer to the squirrels.
 

She was very surprised when I
caught her.

 
My favorite drink!
and couples game night.

 
We did a very last minute craft
show in Lubbock last weekend.
2 big traveling show in a row
was a bit much, but we are saving
for our vacation.

 
 
Rylee applied to work out
at Camp Don this summer.
He had his first day of training.

 
Mrs. Brenda is going to have
her hands full with all these boys!

 
No more shows until the fall!
Thank goodness!  I need a break!
The booth got stuffed and redone.

 
Rylee's awards from school this year.
I am so proud of the changes I've seen
in him this year.

 
We've got radishes!

 
We diced them up and roasted them
for dinner with our favorite veggies.

Oklahoma Craft Show


Finally the weekend came for the
Oklahoma Craft Show that we
have been preparing for.
 

 
 
 
 
 
KC and Sally seem to be
two peas from the same pod!
Nerds!
 

Cody snuck off and bought me this
weenie picture from one of the
other vendors for Mother's Day.


We took a little detour to OKC
on the way home and stopped
for a good lunch at a pizza place.


It was delicious!


On the way to find the pizza
place Cody spotted this statue.
When we looked around a bit
we found out it was Johnny Bench.
 
Cody asked Maw-Maw last time
they were over if we were related
to anyone famous.  She told him
that Johnny Bench was a distant
cousin on my Paw-Paw's side
of the family.
 
So when Cody saw this he had to
have his picture taken to show
Maw-Maw.

This Week

KC got JR and his dad to
donate a new trailer wrap
for the Boy Scout trailer.


They did a meeting down at
the shop and JR showed
all the boys the whole process.


Can you say
Summer Can't Come Soon Enough!
 
We are so ready!!


Cody had his best day ever
at school today.
 
He was the champ of
Knock Out.  It's a basketball
game they play in gym
every week.  There are some
really good players.  This was
Cody's second time to win.
He was so excited!

 
 

Friday Family Fun Night
took us to our favorite
Mexican restaurant and to see
the new Guardians of the Galaxy.
 
 
 
Cody thought he fit right in with
these guys. 


Rylee is still going strong on
making his own tea.  He now
has a little herb garden beside
the house.

 
 

Our bird houses we made last year
needed a little maintenance this spring.
Cody's little Home Tweet Home sign
needed a little glue.  We had to be
careful because it has baby birds in it
already.   Kade's house pretty much is
a goner.  It didn't hold up at all.
Rylee's still looks brand new.  The birds
love his the most because it has the
little front porch and they like
to sit perched on it.


We also put some lattice in
the garden for our sugar
snap peas to climb.


I've got tomatoes!
 

We had our last dance class.
Everyone went to Midnight Rodeo
to dance and celebrate.
It was a really good time.
 
 
 
 
 
 
I will miss getting together to dance
with these crazy people every
Thursday.  We for sure plan to
take the next class in the fall!
