hyper drive

i've often said that may is busier than december except there's no "christmas magic" to work as an anesthesia to help you get through it. some days are just down right insanity, there's no other word to describe it. insanity of good things, but insanity just the same. so just for fun, here's a few of the reasons i was a lame blogger in may:

teacher appreciation luncheon at the jr. high (which was actually fun with help from lauri, patsy and janae - thanks ladies!)
senior photos (here are a couple of my favorites)


allie's spring recital - first recital on pointe shoes and oh my gosh was she awesome! (even though this photo is less than awesome)


mother's day

wayne and eileen's mission call to africa
allie's "night of noteables"

ethan's date with allie at school for "bring a preschooler day"

"you're a good man, charlie brown" when we barely saw taylor for two full weeks

drove to idaho with grandma to decorate graves over memorial weekend

spencer loved DARE lagoon day with his buddies
a shopping, er, i mean, marketing field trip with allie

taylor's guitar recital (i forgot my camera)

tuesday cousin play groups

not to mention the things i actually blogged about already: wood floors, date with my dad, kris allen winning idol, anniversary get-away, spencer's orchestra recital, playing at the park, etc. at some point i really need to write out some of the details of a few of these events, but that's going to have to be later in a catch up post. for now, i'm exhausted just looking at this list. it's time for a sunday afternoon nap.

I agree with how busy May is it really is like December and just about as expensive too!!

W.O.W. I've said it before and I'm sure I'll say it again ~ Your kids are so awesome!!! You must just revel in their goodness!

Wow!!! You have been busy. You are an awsome Mom tho...I wish I could take as many pics as you do! I miss you!

Wow I am dying after seeing all the photo documentation of what you did in May...you are right...it's as bad or worse than December.

I think I need a Tuesday morning nap just reading about your busy May schedule! You've been busy, indeed! You guys have really cute programs in your schools out there!--I especially love the "bring your pre-schooler to school day"! (I adore the picture of the two of them) What a great idea! I think I'll suggest that to our school.

I agree that May is the busiest month with the exception of December (but without the "magic")
In addition to the crazieness with the school year winding down, there is a ton to do in the garden...I've been overwhelmed with everything lately--so I, too, have been a bit of a blogging slacker...

Here's to a relaxing June, July and August!

May WAS a busy month! Jack's photos turned out so great! I loved all of them. It isn't often when he smiles, let again poses for pictures haha.
