Fun times

The last few weeks have been packed with lots of fun stuff! On Friday May 6th, we headed to Columbia so celebrate Aunt Carwee's graduation. Hard to believe she is graduating college already. We wish her all the best and hope all her dreams come true!

We celebrated Mother's Day here at our house with both of our families. It was a great day full of food, fun and family time. Jimmy and Evan surprised me with a secretary desk and it looks great in our foyer! They are too good to me! We had some family pics made on the Horseshoe (where it all began for me and Jimmy) and gave them to our moms for Mother's Day. I think everyone really enjoyed themselves.

We experienced a bad thunder storm last week with 60-70 mph winds. We had a couple of trees fall in our yard and Jimmy has decided to chop down some more in hopes of preventing this in the future. As well as making room for a backyard and maybe a new swing set for Evan sometime this summer. However, the deal is he has to start using the potty before he can get a swingset. And it's not looking like that will be anytime soon, since he shows no interest in doing that! :)

Sunday we spent the day at the Carolina baseball game with MeeMaw and Paw. Evan had a wonderful time at the game and kept a close watch for Cocky! He loves saying "Let's Go Gamecocks!"

On Monday we went on a field trip with Evan's school to Cherry Place Farm. Evan really enjoyed seeing all the animals and of course the tractor ride was the highlight of the trip! I really enjoy seeing him interact with his friends at school. They are all so cute together! This is his last week of school but he will be attending two summer camps at the school just to keep him in the swing of things.
