So, April started the baseball and softball season for the big kids. Max played for the Twins (with dad being coach) and Molli played for the Bitty Bumblebees. Both of them were #7 (that just happens to be dad's lucky number!) They both played AWESOME!! Max takes the sport very seriously. He truly dislikes getting out, but he's a great hustler and loves to swing the bat. His favorite positions are pitcher and first base. Molls loves everything about softball. She is a great hitter, fielder, and runner. Both kids are speedy!! They get that from their momma:)
Max is currently still playing through the end of summer. He's doing a special league, called "second season", to allow him to keep learning the game of baseball, and keep him busy until school starts!
In May we had Mother's Day and a couple of Graduations!!
My Mother's Day tradition has been to plant flowers with my family! We had an open flower bed at the end of our driveway that needed 'sprucing up' so that's how we spent the day - planting about 100 petunias and merigolds!!!! Later, we added a flag pole to the bed. It looks so great!!!! The flowers look fabulous. These pictures won't do it justice, since these were just planted. Now they have mounded and really fill in and are abundant in color!
Had to take a bagel snack break. They had been working so hard!
And the finished product!
To conclude the month, we had a couple of momentous occasions: Molli graduated Preschool and is now off to Kindergarten in the fall while Max graduated Kindergarten and will start First Grade!!
Wow! And that's just the end of the school year! Summer has been very busy so far, finally slowing down, until home life turns crazy again!
