Mayhem part 2 (May 8th-12th) Birthday weekend!

May 8th sunrise on my way to a Friday morning swim


Walk to the dog wash and back with a loon spotting.


Friday night date night just Thomas and I. Isaac was at a baseball game and the girls were at a school event: Springfest. 


May 9th - Saturday morning bike ride and a random spot for a bike ride rack over where the light rail goes down into a tunnel. 



The girls had a skate party for their birthday on Saturday the 9th. 


 






While we were partying at Skateville, Isaac had two baseball tournament games. Thanks again to Bill for great photos. Really I wouldn't see any of Isaac playing baseball without them. 







Sunday morning was Mother's Day and well as the girls'birthday. Started with a run, then church and brunch. 






Last bit of work cleaning the office walls in prep for them to start on the project the following day. 


Thomas wanted to read near the lake so he biked over and laid on a blanket.


Finished off the rest of the ice cream cake left over from the party. 


We didn't do candles on Sunday so made sure to get it in on Monday. 



Tuesday morning annual check ups for the girls. No shots this year. 


Springtime!

Second Half of April '26 - skating, traveling, baseball and more

Morning run view


Kyle went to China for a work trip, Saturday April 18th for six days


Mary had her first FS1 test (Free Style 1) In private skating lessons in order to level up you perform a routine as your test. She had her FS1 on April 18th and passed! Now she'll work on FS2 skills and do a test mid-to late summer. 

Funny story with this video, we came to watch but thought she was just warming up. We thought there weren't going to be any one else on the ice. But there were a lot of people for this time slot so this 'practice' run was actually the real deal. 


Mary has taking a liking to baking. 


Woke to SNOW on April 19th, what!?!?!

Since Kyle was gone for the week that left me to do ALLLL the running. Emma had early morning soccer practice on Sunday morning so I got a run in around her location while she practiced.

Blessed to get free tickets to the twins game from GOTR. Great way to pass the time away with Kyle being gone. It was chilly! 



Trying to warm up in the sun. 






After the game it was a trip to dicks sporting goods to buy ALL THE SHOES! Thankfully we had a 20% coupon!


Monday morning, pre swim view:


Isaac had his first baseball game - April 20th. One of the dad's captured these great photos!



 



Oakley being a good boy sitting on the porch with us. Finally good weather! Spring was a long time coming. 


Morning run:



Friday evening Kyle got home to be with Thomas just after we had left for the middle school play. The girls and Isaac knew a lot of people in the play. It was so good!

So glad to be heading up GOTR again. 



Mary's sewing project for school


Sunrise so gorgeous on my way to swim


Finished April with the annual GOTR luncheon fundraiser. 




And an evening of ice skating, baseball, baseball and soccer!

Mary had her dress rehearsal for the skate show that weekend I didn't get a photo but did record her group's number:

Glimpse at the life we live... This was only the start May through mid-June is worse.
