Neither of these pictures were very good, but between them both you can see all of us! :) This was the Saturday after school got out, we celebrated by going to the play "Marry Poppins". Everyone loved it! Well I guess I can't say everyone, I'm not sure if Benson really loved it but he sat through it...with some help of some snacks. I had never seen the stage version, it was fun to see all the similarities and differences. As always after a musical I left singing with a resolve to be better, now I just need to work on remembering that resolve.
Walking with Dad on a Sunday afternoon. The weather has been beautiful this whole month of May, we've had our windows open most days and haven't had to use the AC. It looks like the normal summer weather is coming with the month of June, but we have all been grateful for this cooler May.
Over Memorial Day weekend there was a race down town by the children's museum. The museum was free for the night and all kids could enter a one mile race for free as well. The boys enjoyed playing at the museum and being able to be part of a race. Alden got really into it and ran the whole time and actually ended up coming in 3rd for people his age. Michael ran with Alden and I ran/walked with Calvin and Benson. Calvin wasn't as into it as Alden we had been running for maybe 30 seconds when Calvin turned to me and said, "Mom, this is a long race!!" He walked some, rode some and ran a good amount to. It was fun to see him at the end, everyone was cheering him on, he then got a big smile on his face, and then started running with his big boy stride until he crossed the finish line. At the end everyone got a ribbon it was fun to see how excited/ happy they were to have been part of a race.
