I hope you all are having a fun weekend! Did anyone watch the Derby or celebrate Cinco de Mayo yesterday? I didn’t end up doing either, but did enjoy some hangout time with the kids and monster moon viewing with friends. Yes, I realize that these are not photos of kids, friends, or the moon, but I didn’t take pictures of any of those things. You’ll just have to use…
Jeff and Leila had their father/daugher dance last night. I started taking pictures before remembering that Leila’s “Outlaw” tattoo was still on her arm. Usually temporary tattoos start flaking off after a day or two. This one has stayed on for a good two weeks, through swimming and multiple baths.

Happy Birthday Joe! Today you turn 5, and there are some things about this age that I never want to forget. When someone asks you what your favorite color is, you say, “Blue, and black, and white…and pink, and purple, and orange, and I like ALL the colors!” It seems like you have inherited my inability to make a decision (sorry about that).

Hotter than hot temperatures are only weeks away, and I have been wearing my long hair up more than down lately. I knew it was time. Even though I was ready, I was still nervous because I was trusting the…
Happy Birthday Leila! Today you turn 3, and there are some things about you at this age that I never want to forget. Your favorite color is pink. When I asked you what you wanted for your birthday, you told me, “A pink hat, pink hair, and a pink nose.” You talk about your pink friends and tell me about how you will go to pink soccer practice and someday…
