May in Review

I just wanted to write about the things I didn't make note of this month real quick. We are excited for summer; only 4 more days of school!

This is Cashy's new favorite thing to do. He loves sitting in this chair and watching "Gicky Mouse" in the playroom, all by himself.

The Johnson family came over to our house to celebrate Jakob's and Matt's Birthdays, as well as Mother's Day with Oma. Oma got a fun beach bag, a book, Danielle's popcorn and a gift certificate to the book store. We had chocolate and lemon cake and ended the night with Jakob getting a big goose egg on his head! Poor guy, it looked like it hurt! I had a really nice Mother's Day. Kenna made me a flower pot that she modge podged and then planted pretty little flowers in it and Coco made me a recipe book. Each kid in his class wrote down a recipe for each Mother's Day book...it was so cute and so funny! Johnny got me an under the counter radio and ipod docking station, which I love and a gift card to Nordstrom which I promptly put into use. My favorite gifts are the ones that my children make for me, I love to see there anticipation before they give them to me and then after they hand them to me, I love to see the pride on their little faces as they watch for my reaction! It's the best! Although I don't have any pictures, we did go over to my Mom's house on Mother's Day and celebrated Min's and Adam's birthdays too! We had a barbeque, brownies and homemade ice cream. I love my Mom!



Coco had his end of the season football party. They had pizza and cupcakes and swam for a little bit! The water was 75 degrees and they didn't mind one bit! Coco raised his hand when the coach asked who was coming back for the fall season. Each player got a trophy, certificate and a metal.



Lillie cut her own hair for like the fifth time and this time it couldn't be fixed with a little off here or there. Min called me up and told me what she had done and said that she asked Lillie why she would do such a thing, Lillie said, "Mom, I just wanted to look like Kenna." Min's right, how can you get mad at that? Anyhow, so Min came into town and Aunt Stephy gave Lillie a Kenna haircut and she couldn't have been happier about it, and I think it is just way too cute on her!


Cody had his you know whats cut off. Poor puppy! He did really well though. The vet told me to leave the cone on for 7-10 days...YEAH RIGHT! It was more like three days.


On the way to go get Cody from the vet, I was pulled over and given a ticket for not making a complete stop at a 4 way stop sign...which I guess he wanted me to stop and count to 5 before going. I was soooo MAD! He pulled me over and was like, "Do you know why I pulled you over?" I said no I didn't and then he told me I didn't stop and I said I thought I did and he said no and then he's like "You also shouldn't be talking on your cell phone either!" and I said, "I wasn't sir." and he's like "It sure looks like you were." Then he asks to see my cell phone and I hand it to him and then he tells me to pull up the call log, so I did and of course my last call was like an hour prior to him pulling me over. He's like, "Oh. Well it sure looked like you were on your phone, did you have your hand up to your ear?" I'm thinking "Are you serious?!" I wanted so badly to ask him if he wanted to rethink seeing me not stop at the stop sign since he was so sure I was talking on my phone! Anyhow, when Johnny came home from work he brought me some beautiful flowers home and told me he was sorry I was having such a bad day. I love him!


For Min's birthday, my Mom , Min and I, with our kids went to Sammie's for salads and the "Messy Sunday"! YUMMY!



We took a quick trip to California over Memorial Day weekend to catch a Dodger game and play at the beach. The Dodgers lost to the Cardinals! (boo) It rained and so we swam at the hotel instead of the beach and then on the way back home we ate lunch and played arcade games at Dave & Busters! We had a good time and even survived the car ride without our DVD player.
This is when I realized Coco needed a serious trim!
