What May Looked Like

Cinco de Mayo fajitas

So good!

Andrew and I went to the temple.

I failed to take a pic at the temple,

but made sure to get one at the ice cream shop afterward...

Saturday at the Farmer's Markets!

Microgreens and ice cream

And an elote!!!

Miss Whit moved home for the summer.

Yippee!

We're so happy to have her!

Finished off our 3.5 18+ team and went out to lunch to celebrate.

Jax, Casey, Elisabeth, Lindsay, Sonia, Aprille, Steph, Natalie, and me

My Gerbera daisies are going CRAZY this  year!

I've never seen so many blooms!

I can't remember why I was eating a popsicle 

in the car with an earbud in.... 

I love playing with Natalie!

She's such a great partner and we do really well together.

We went 4-1 together on the season.

I had to have my first colonoscopy!

Oh my gosh.

The prep for that procedure is ridiculous.

You have to drink that whole bottle of laxative...

Not pleasant.

And have a liquid diet all day

But the procedure itself is not bad at all.

It was my first time being put to sleep.

And it went fine without any complications.

Yippee!

And my doctor said I'm good for TEN YEARS.

Day of the Arts at NCLA

Bear got to sing with the choir.

You can kinda see her in the back row.

She also got to sign with her friends,

which was awesome to watch.

That's her teacher, Wiz, on the right.

Ingram's Farm

Had to pick up our fresh strawberries.

Yum yum yum.

Birding!

Dinner with Karen and our friends to celebrate

her finishing up chemo. Hooray!

So glad that's done.

Such a great group of friends.

Loved spending the evening with them.

Mother's Day!

I got spoiled with my favorite things,

vegetable lasagna.

And strawberry shortcake!

I got a new watch and this awesome

bird shirt.

Care Bear and I built a new container

for our garden.

It's so cute!

But we didn't put enough soil in it.

So the middle row didn't really grow anything.

We'll try again next year.

I'm still doing duolingo for my spanish every day.

Diamond league is the top league, so that's

always fun to get promoted there.

Andrew had some church meetings with these cool people.

We found a car for Caroline!

Yippee! She'll get to learn to drive on this cute

Honda Civic! It's perfect.

She continues to go to silks in Burlington about once a week.

Look at these monsterras!

And this fiddle leaf fig!

So pretty. This is a plant store off of Spring Garden.

They have great plants, but terrible customer service.

C's spring chorus concert!

I had to take an official-looking photo

to send in with my application to take

THE BOARDS! This is really happening, y'all!

Spare Time has gotten so lame.

Thus, the sad faces.

They only let you play Space Invaders ONE TIME

and then the score to beat goes higher than the highest

score of all time. L-A-M-E!!!!

I played on a 4.0 team with Catherine this spring.

She's the nicest and a wonderful captain.

Loved playing with her.

Ennui???

Never heard of it....

Marianne and Patrick came to visit!

Yippee!

Board game friends!

The main reason they came was for E to participate

in her first feis (pronounced "fesh"). It's an Irish dancing

competition. I'm so happy I could go watch and get a

glimpse into a world I know nothing about!

She did awesome!

It's so pretty!

She tried to teach me some of her moves...

Not easy.

She got medals in all three of her dances.

We had a little time to hang out after the feis, so we drove

up to Pilot Mountain. And we ran into the Rosiers there!

So fun!

We hiked around the knob, which is a perfect little hike.

And it was a beautiful day.

I love the view from up there!

We went out to dinner that night.

While we were waiting for our food,

we messed around with the Family Tree app.

The celebrity I look most like?

Joe Louis! Ha ha ha ha!

Can't you see the resemblance???

Sweet Ol' Bills

One of my favorites.

Great Blue Heron eating a fish.

I thought this was hilarious that they had fruit

"flavored" nail polish remover.

I'm pretty sure it's just a bad translation...

My hydrangeas are starting to bloom!

Bird walk with the Piedmont Bird Club.

I love hanging out with these people.

They know so much!

Lunch with Bea and her Mom!

Her mom doesn't speak English, so it was super

fun for me to practice my spanish!

Grasshoppers game!

Barb ordered this super fun piano duet book for

me and Whitney to play. We love it! Especially the first

song. The harmonies are so pretty!

For Caroline's birthday, Sabrina invited us to have

a silks party at the gym!

What?! Yes, please!

Care Bear did a little performance.

Then we posed for pics.

Caroline, Brenna, Juliana, Caroline, Bella, Brianna, Mallory.

Then everyone got to try the silks.

Everyone had fun!

Such a good group of friends.

Crumbl cookies instead of cake.

So happy we could celebrate our girl!

Happy birthday, sweet girl!
