May Happenings...

Weird candy-cane-striped tan lines from mowing with my jacket sleeves pushed up. Didn't you know that this is totally the "in" thing right now?!🤣

A special photo sent to me by one of my friends in Ethiopia. Her sign says, "I love you and miss you." 💗

A fun little gift box that I ordered from Darci's business, All The Day Long. It included a t-shirt, a sticker, and 2 beautiful cookies that were almost too pretty to eat.

A special Mother's Day breakfast from my girlies:

A golden evening moment:

A pretty bouquet:

Updated pics from some of our sponsored kids in Ethiopia:

Shana made candy necklaces with the neighbor kids:

School is done for the year! Jalen and Jordan had a drive-thru celebration at school and picked up their awards.

Daddy has been working hard on a massive new swingset/treehouse for Quintin:

We've also been looking at ideas and colors for the new building we're putting up this summer...

...and switching bedrooms around for our home study, which means scraping popcorn ceilings, repainting, staining, and varnishing:

Here's Adrian's new room, which is almost comnplete:

The cute little model for the hats Malia is selling on her website:

A drive-by birthday celebration for Lynelle:

Even though Shana and I get dressed 2 floors apart, it is amazing how we always seem to pick matching outfits.

We sold the big beluga and bought a maroon, new-to-us van. Malia wanted a parting shot with the trusty old van:

Quintin surprised me one day by showing me that he knows how to count by 2's, 3's, 4's, 5's, 10's, 20's, 30's, 40's, etc. I asked him who taught it to him, and he said, "I just learned how to do it by myself!" He counted all the way to 120 by 30's...what other 4-year-old can do that?! Little smartie-pants!
