Aaron's Mom and Dad were able to come out for a week and a half to visit us and Aaron's sister. We were able to get together and go see the Hill Air Force Base Museum. A lot of amazing planes.
A few days later, we took a trip over to Thanksgiving point to see the Tulip Festival that goes on each spring. We rented a golf cart to get around and the kids thought that was the coolest thing...forget the flowers!!
While Mom and Dad were here Aaron started the Play house project. We had been talking about making the kids one for the past couple years and this was the year. Aaron's Dad was able to help Aaron get the deck part done and slowly the rest has come together.
This is what it looks like at the moment. Still a couple things to finish up...staining, a slide, a fire poll, sand below and bark chips. It's coming though.
Kaylie and Ean started Karate self defense classes and have really enjoyed it. Kaylie is a natural and Ean is getting better every time he goes to class. It has been good for both of them.
They also started up swim lessons for the summer. Kaylie will be out of school this friday so hopefully the extra activities will keep them busy for a little bit.
As for me, I am about 32 weeks pregnant now. All is going really well...as pregnancy goes I guess. I chopped off my hair a few weeks ago in anticipation of summer even if it hasn't really hit us yet. Got my garden planted and now waiting for it to grow in all it's glory...
Another bit of fun we had this last month was the celebration of a new niece. Claire Elizabeth Denny. Born the 19th of May. With her birth came my parents who were able to come out and help for a week. We were able to catch up and enjoy the family time with them and get to know baby Claire too.
Ean graduated from preschool just this last Friday and he has enjoyed his year with Miss Barbara's Preschool. He is so excited to start Kindergarten in the fall. He keeps asking how many days :)
Lastly we had a fun lively Memorial day weekend with family. My cousin Tony, his family and my cousin Doug came to stay with us for two nights and it was great. Sadly we haven't gotten together in over two years so it was nice to catch up. The kiddo's played hard and we really enjoyed having them here.
So here we are in June.
That was a marathon post! I think I have a few of those coming on my blog! It was so great to see you guys and Beth and Kaytie's families. Thanks for being so gracious and letting us crash at your place. All of your kids are even cuter in person. We had a blast!
