Memorial Day

 Hopefully Summer is finally here to stay.  Our Spring has not been too nice to us this year, so hopefully the weather will straighten up and give us nice weather to handle.  Last week, we were almost ready to bring out the winter jackets it was so cold out!

 This weekend, we stayed home to get some stuff done around the house.  Daddy worked on the house and got the front all done with the new siding and new light.  He even got a few of the landscape bricks out back during the rain.  Unfortunately the rainfall on Sunday afternoon dampened all outside plans.

 The boys and I spent some time over by Gg and Papa's helping Grandma Maria and Auntie Tina with some projects around the house.  We moved the furniture downstairs on Sunday and then today we finished up the planting in the yard.  I planted 140 impatiens in their yard plus some geraniums and begonia's.

 After I was done planting at Gg and Papa's, I came home to plant some flowers into my garden.  It is just a start and hopefully I will be able to get some more over the next few weeks.
 The boys enjoyed the nice warm weather by running through the sprinkler.  Brewer ran around saying "I'm taking a shower"!  Both boys even got a little sun on their shoulders too:(
 This afternoon, we went down to the beach to enjoy the summer day with Grandma and Grandpa Beck.  Surprisingly it was much cooler than the 85 degree's at our house.  The boys had a great time throwing rocks into the lake.  Then we went back to Gg and Papa's for a picnic.  Auntie Debbie and Uncle Dennis arrived to help out Gg and Papa for the next few days.  Cooper and Brewer had fun running through the sprinkler with Ava and Conner at Gg and Papa's too! It was a great day!

A Day with Grandma Maria

Grandma Maria came down to Kenosha to spend a day with each of the boys!  On Tuesday, she went with Cooper to the Milwaukee County Zoo with his Kindergarten class and together they had a blast!  Grandma took some amazing pictures of the animals that Cooper is going to put into his book!  Then they went to Gg and Papa's and hung out until Mommy and Daddy came to get him.

Wednesday was Brewer's turn!  Grandma came and picked Brewer up from school and they went out and picked out flowers for Gg and Papa!  They played lots outside and downstairs.  Thank you Grandma for spending your days off with us!

Art Class- Dinosaurs

Brewer made this really cool dinosaur in art class with Auntie Sue this week!  This was also our last art class for the session!  Brewer had a blast going with Auntie Sue and cannot wait to do it again in the fall!  Thank you Auntie Sue for taking me:)

Art Class - Under the Sea

Brewer made an Under the Sea mobile that we are hanging in the living room.  Brewer once again did some painting and gluing with Auntie Sue!  He is loving art class time!

Auntie Sue had a good laugh today.  After class, Brewer gets 2 peanut butter roll-ups and Cheetos's to eat on the way home.  However, on this day we didn't have any Cheetos's and Brewer demanded Cheetos's all the way to school!  Sorry Auntie!

Derby Party - Great Grandma's Birthday

On May 8th, we went to Auntie Sue's house for the annual Derby Party/Great Grandma's Birthday Celebration. This year we celebrated her 80th Birthday!  Happy Birthday Great Grandma! 
I won the drawing too with the help from Grandpa!  Nicole was passing out names, but I waited too long.  So Grandpa shared one of his names with me...and I won the race:)

Mother's Day

I got to spend Mother's Day with very special people today!  First, my boys surprised me with flowers and doughnuts...beautiful and yummy!  And then we went over to Gg and Papa's for brunch with Grandma Maria, and Grandma Beck!  Everything was yummy! 

After the boys woke up from rest, we went down to the lake to walk around before going over to Villa D'Carlo's for pizza!  I had a great Mother's Day!

Art Class - Flowers

When we asked Brewer what he did at Art Class, he said "shh!  Flowers!"  And that is what he did in art class today, Flowers!  Auntie Sue and Brewer made this awesome spring flower windsock.  He got to paint and glue and color all in one project....heaven for a two year old!
