May... so far :)

I have been busy, busy, busy... I really should blog more often though. Here are the happenings from this month so far. I am sure you are sitting on the edge of your seat just waiting for this... or maybe not.

I had a birthday on May 5th :) It really is the best time of year for a birthday... though this year was a little bit chilly. We did get some sun that day though! We had a mini birthday party with the kiddos early in the day. They demanded cake and balloons :) And I don't see why not!

Then Dallas surprised me with a getaway to Indy without the kids... ahhhh... it was wonderful! We wandered the city, tried to go to a small museum but it was closed, shopped, ate, and went to see the movie Source Code. It was so nice to spend time with Dallas with no interruptions. The best part? We didn't have to be home in time to put the kids to bed :) We got to stay the night and not worry about our duty as parents for a whole day! Ahhhh, it was fabulous! 

Our drive home... notice the empty car seats...

I spent some of my birthday money on a very tiny garden. We planted peppers, green onions and carrots :) They are already popping up and it makes us so happy! 

We like to garden in our pajamas :) If you can tell, that is what they are wearing...

Finally, we got a swing set!!! Our friends, who got a new one, passed this one onto us. We LOVE having it, especially since we don't have a park nearby. It is so nice to have something to do outside everyday. 

The weather was strange this week. The forecast was rain and storms all week and it only rained once. It was incredibly hot and humid up until yesterday and then it cooled down a bit. Even though it was humid it was sure nice to have some warm weather! I hope this colder stuff doesn't last long.

I have also been busy taking lots of pictures :) I will have a preview up on my blog tomorrow of the sessions I had last week... and I will be posting more photos later this week. Fun stuff!
