More May Fun!

For Mother's Day I got a new iPhone!! Bennett and Clif did all the work and brought home a new phone! So of course I needed some new pictures!


I was able to attend Parker's last day of school were there basically did nothing and played outside all day. She had PERFECT attendance all year and I didn't want to ruin it!  Although PA doesn't given an award for that Mrs. Barnes sure did! Parker was the only student in her class to come to school every day this school year and Mrs. Barnes gave her a HUGE bag of gummie bears! She is still munching on it today. Below she is having fun with her friend Elise.
On awards day Parker won 5 awards! She was the first student called of the entire Awards Day receiving two Art awards. One was from her teacher and the 2nd was from Water and Soil Conservation Association Poster Contest (She also won $20). She followed that with the Book It award, the Presidential Physical Fitness Award and the Headmaster's List. I was so proud and we are only in 1st grade! I look forward to seeing her on stage in the years to come!
In late May, Bennett had an hour of golf camp every afternoon so the girls and I headed to the Country Club for a little swim. The baby pool is great for new swimmers and Langley re-discovered how much she loves the water!
And we found our new favorite googles! They are pink and purple or favorite colors!
I didn't really listen in on the conversation although I think I should have....
Doesn't Langley looked entertained?
Super soakers are super fun right now!

On Mother's day Parker carried the crown for Mary at Mass. We were very proud!

We started off May with Greenwood's annual River to the Rails festival which includes a BBQ contest. Unfortunately I didn't get many pictures except the few below. Langley was so excited to get her face painted.
 I love this picture because you can tell that she didn't want to smile as big as usual because the dried face paint felt funny....hence the funny smile :)
 Langley hadn't been napping much lately so she headed out after lunch time.
Bennett's last day of school was May 2nd!!! And the day after that was Elementary Awards day where he won an art award. In fact, he won first place in the district and the state for the MAIS art contest for his age group. 
 He was very excited to finally get his blue ribbons!
And this is the winner!
 His last day of school was Spring Fling where all classes compete and play games. Below he is sitting with his friend Trace. 
 Langley's last day of preschool was the following week and they had a fun little party.
 And since Bennett was out he got to join in on the 3 year old fun as well!
 Langley's program was fantastic! She is great performer. I will post a video soon...
