Blast from the Past- May 2017 Happenings Part 2

May was such a crazy busy month, I decided to split it up into a few posts.

Anastasia

Two words:  Cute kitty

Two more words:  Crazy kitty

Bailey

Bailey had to wear a cone for a little bit this month because she had a sore spot on her neck that she wouldn't leave alone.  She tolerated it like a champ.

These two love to nap together.  It's their favorite part (or parts) of the day.

Trying our Hands at Gardening...Again

We have not ever been great gardeners.  We gave it up for a few years, but this year decided to give it a try again.  We thought that container gardening would be our best bet.  Ellie is super proud of her pumpkin plant and she loves to help out with all the planting and harvesting.

Memorial Day Hike

We decided to go on a little hike over Memorial Day weekend.  Okay, it was more like I said, "Guess what, everyone?  We're going on a hike this weekend."  We have a couple of non-hikers in our family and so getting them excited about going is always a challenge.

But we had a good time.  Abbie and Emma made good use of the outdoor lighting by having a mini photo session.  Lol.

Iowa Cubs vs. Salt Lake Bees

Abbie and Dad had a fun night at the Smith's Ball Park.  They watched the Iowa Cubs play the Salt Lake Bees.  The best part about the game was that they got to see Ian Happ play for the Cubs.  That night he got called up to play for the Chicago Cubs so they got to see him in his last minor league game.

MHS Centennial Ball

This is actually a pretty cool year for Murray High School.  It is their 100th year.  They've had a lot of fun activities to celebrate this anniversary, including a Centennial Ball.

Josh asked his friend, Becca, to Centennial.  He sent her on a treasure hunt of sorts to find out who was asking her.  It was very cute. :)

They had a great night and looked super cute, don't you think?

A Nurse in the Family

I have to give a shout out to my littlest sis, Sharise.  She graduated from Nursing School this month and we are just so super proud of her!  She worked really hard to achieve this goal and I am so excited for her.
