May Misc.

 Here are a few more things that happened in May:


Dorie likes to come with me to take the kids to their lessons. Here she is looking like a potato in the car

An interesting way to start the day

I have fixed the bedskirt on this bed a million times, but Oliver keeps putting it back like this - the way he likes it


Nora's AP Biology teacher put together this little treat pack for the kids in the class, which was such a thoughtful thing to do


Nora finished crocheting the giant mushroom pillow that Ev "commissioned" her to do

This was a very exciting event and Ev wanted there to a ceremony. She had me play Pomp and Circumstance on the phone, and she gave a speech. Then the mushroom was officially handed over from Nora to Ev. Lol


Playtime with the ratlings

Sweet Max - we are still trying to get him back to his normal weight after his thyroid procedure, but he is doing a lot better


Hanging out with Dorie in the car


This is one of the trees in our backyard when it had its blossoms. Spring is such a magical time


Little One loves the office window


Oliver cuddle time


We have been giving Dorie more dental treats to help with her teeth. She always takes them to her crate to eat them and she is really cute

Spring sunset

Juno loves this blanket because it is so soft


Stairs kitty

Juno spending some time in her little house

Juno is very curious about the shower, and will sometimes go investigate in there right after we've used it and it is still wet

Sam and Mike building the cyborg hand that Sam got for his birthday

Complete!


Birdwatching

Lemon left handed challenge

Dorie loves going on a trip to Petsmart


Sam built this penny-hockey board in his Tech 7 class


One evening when Nora was out with her friends, Mike and I took Ev and Sam to our favorite Thai restaurant. It is not a good place for Nora to go because there are so many peanut things on the menu, but it is awesome for Ev because they have lots of amazing gluten-free options.


We shared a mango rice for dessert

Sam loves the orange boy

Getting some pictures with my sweet pup!


Relaxing evening at home, hehe

Napping buddy or sleep paralysis demon?

Juno often has something to say


We went to see Guardians of the Galaxy 3

Dorie and Fritz are such cute cousin-buddies

When the petals from the tree blossoms fall on the ground, it looks like nature's confetti



Oll-Z cracks me up

For Sam's actual birthday, he chose to get dinner at JcW's, and for the treat we got shakes from JcW's

For his activities, we watched a video of a cooking Youtuber going through Benihana chef training

We also played some Boomarang Fu



Water levels have been high this spring after getting a lot of snowfall this winter - checking out the river by Art Dye Park

Juno being adorable while watching TV

Max being his silly self

Nora got some new dangly earrings, and the rats were very interested in them!


Cute little couch gremlin, lol

We went to see Hello, Dolly! at Hale Theatre, and it was amazing!!

The set design was so enchanting, I loved it all






A family mini-golf outing



Dorie hoping to come with us any time we get in the car

Sweet smile

Nora, Ev, Sam and Mike have been playing Stardew Valley together
