May Activities & Festivities

May was filled with lots of activites as well as festivities as we wrapped up Spring and welcomed in Summer. From Mother's Day, Emmy's dance recital, Fun on the Farm, to an Indians game with the boys and even a ballet for the girls, the month was filled with FUN! Here are just a few pictures from the many memories we made this past month :)

Spring Break Memories

Last month for Spring Break, we headed down to Destin for a second visit. The weather didn't cooperate quite as well this year, and poor Emmy got terribly sick, but we still managed to have a wonderful time away together, all 11 of us! :) It was a bittersweet trip though, one that we will always remember because on the morning we left, we found out that Josh's Grandpa Baker had passed away. With heavy hearts we headed home, sad that Grandpa was gone but also relieved for him that He was truly Home. Here are a few pictures of our precious time together this year on Spring Break....
