What we did in May

It's been awhile since our Mama had an updated, framed picture of her grandkids. So for Mother's Day this year, we decided to try to get one! Sounds easier than it is. But the last picture she has, Kaden is holding Hallie in it, she was that little. So we decided to give it a shot. Hallie is usually all about the camera, but this day for one reason or another, she was NOT having it. It was pretty funny because she was yelling out little 'insults' to Stephanie (who was taking the picture and trying really hard to get them all to smile at the same time). She'd say things like 'I don't even like your shoes' and 'I don't even want my picture taken'. She's funny. Anyway, we did end up getting a good one, and we got a good one of Jessica's six for them to give to her also.






Here are Jessica's six. They are getting so big!

The last week of May, Tony, Hallie and I went with Grandma Cathy, Steph, Rachael and Adam to the Wellsville Mile to watch Emily and Jake run the race. Hallie loves to play with Rachael and Adam so she had a fun time.




There was the cutest little boy in a wheelchair who participated in the race. We were all cheering him on and Rachael goes (pretty loud), 'Hey, he's cheating!' Haha, we laughed quietly and explained to her that he wasn't cheating, he just couldn't physically run. Hallie love watching the race, ever since then she has been saying 'Mom, I've got to get ready for my race. It's in the morning.' She recently started playing 'soccer games' with her imaginary friends as well. She had a bruise on her shin and when you asked her where it came from she'd say 'Taco kicked me in our soccer game'. Kids are funny.

Jake and Emily did great in the race. Jake had been really sick the weekend before but decided to run anyway and he did really good. Emily did good as well. We didn't get any real good pictures of Jake, and the one we got of Emily, you can tell she is excited this Wellsville Mile thing is over with now that she's done with the fifth grade!



Summer is here finally! If it would ever stop raining, we're looking forward to playing outside a lot, swimming with the cousins a lot and playing with all Hallie's neighbor friends.
