May Days!

This month we celebrated Miranda's birthday! She turned 5 and we celebrated with a gymnastics play day on Saturday, her favorite meal (tacos) on Sunday, and Chuck E. Cheese for dinner plus cake at home on Monday (her actual birthday). She is such a sweet thing (most of the time) and a great helper to me. She is reading everything she can get her hands on lately and is SO excited to start kindergarten in August. Jill spent the whole day calling her "the five year old" and she really enjoyed that. :) I am glad my girls have each other, so they always have a best friend (and a nemesis). Here are some pics of our festivities.




Other things we've done in the past month... baby showers, birthday parties, field trips, dentist appointments (Natalie is tongue-tied, who knew?), Echo was neutered (and is a bit calmer surprisingly), Jill gave a talk in Primary, Ben gave a talk in church, I got an additional calling (Primary pianist), Lucas got a double ear infection (and is 18 lbs of adorableness!), I made some really great chimichangas (ha ha), and we're all here and happy. We're looking forward to a visit from my dear college friend, Julie, this week and hope she's going to start the "Let's go to Abilene" vacation trend! :)
