Lainie's 8th birthday, then our 19th Wedding Anniversary (see big fat photo at top of blog), Tamara's birthday (she was a no-show so we'll catch her later!) Then a fun dinner party at Mel's
(thanks baby girl) for Migmommy Mother's Day and may I quote Jean Paul Richter "No joy in nature is so sublimely affecting as the joy of a monther at the good fortune of her child." That, and the continued faithfullness of my children, truly is my greatest joy!
(can't wait for the movie and dinner outing with all yous) Then Lainie's baptism (see earlier post), and my new job - slaving away at BHN - actually, I've been having a blast shopping and decorating the whole place with Allison's expert help! Sorry - I was too dumb to think of taking before and after photos of our work - so you'll just have to trust me, the place looks great!My darling friend (since Jr High)Donna
is trying to recover from cancer - so I visit her each week on my way home from working for Sammy Boy. She might hit me for posting this, but I especially wanted to put this up for Robin - she and Donna love each other very much.
Then on May 19th, Kas called and said Mandie had delivered Creed Michael O'Shea into this world!! I know Grandpapa Creed, who keeps an eye on us from heaven, must have hand picked that little one for his darling daughter! (I'll insert a picture when I get one) May 20th would have been beautiful Robin's 59th Birthday
I have been missing my awesome little sister for almost 40 years now - I can't wait for my kids to meet her someday - she was the "queen" of our family!Then "Mr. Creed" turned 2 on the 22nd while Rennie and the little people were visiting Grpa & Grma Goulding to Utah (Happy Birfday Creeem) Also... While they were gone, we had the biggest weirdest rainy weekend in the history of my life in the desert (for May anyway). It was beautiful and COLD! You should see our tomato plants - don't tell Kylie, or she'll want to come out and start pickin 'n eatin!
Next, Michael turned 38 (yikes) and Mel & E celebrated their 12th Anniversary (gee, that doesn't make our 19th seem very long) They luxuriated at the "Dammaron Valley Resort" for a week with the girls! Uncle Kim had us all out for tortilla soup and a great visit with Becca & Anthony, Todd and Kevin - they floated the river the next day and survived the icy waters. Memorial Day was a treat for us - Jack and Alli and little Patch spent the night and then fired up the BBQ and made the BEST turkey burgers! (see her blog for great pix) I made some fried green tomatoes (from our garden) and chocolate ice cream, thanks to Luke's run to the market for ICE and CREAM! Thanks for the party guys!
I always think of my Daddy on Memorial Day - 
I appreciate and honor his loyal service to his country during WWII
Rounding out a HUGE month was Jadyn's 5th Birthday...and when I come back from church...I'll stick in some pictures!
