Shaun's 5th Grade Boston Field Trip!  This is such a great field trip and one I don't mind chaperonning!

It's a gorgeous day to be in Boston!

We had such a great tour guide!

Shaun and Bernie found each other at the end of the day!

After we got back from Boston, we rushed over to Evan's make-up baseball game!

So proud of Evan! He had a great game tonight! He hit his first big single off the kid pitcher and then ran to second on an over throw. He scored a run when his teammate got a hit. So much improvement this year from him! He said it's the lucky new pants and socks! But I think it's all thanks to his great coaches! ⚾

Shaun's last elementary school concert!  It was such a great show and I may or may not shed a tear or two...

The music teachers had kids playing piano before the concert began.  Mood music while we waited for the show to start!

Shaun's last time playing cello, he's sticking with the trombone and doing chorus next year.

African drumming!

We are so lucky to have two amazing music teachers working with our kids!  These teachers are the reason my boys love theater and music so much!

I just love baseball season!  This year we only have two kids playing, Shaun decided to add an extra swim team practice.

Evan is having a great year and he has gained so much confidence in his playing lately. So proud of his hardwork and determination to become a better ball player!

Evan's awesome hit...the 3rd baseman ended up making a great catch on the hit, but we were still so proud of him for making contact!

David is in his last year of Cal Ripken, next season he'll move up to Babe Ruth.  I'm going to miss watching him play games at Sanel.

Always ready to listen to his coach!

This year we all decided to participate in the annual Rock 'N Race in town! We brought Evan's friend with us and had a little fun before and after! I had just started working on getting back into shape and running is just not my jam, but I jogged and walked the 5K race and finished in just under 50 minutes! I'm proud of myself for doing it instead of just hanging back at the finish line!

Ready to Rock 'N Race!

At the start with a fun photobomb from a race volunteer!

They did it!  Nice job!

I did it!  And I didn't die!

A little mexican to celebrate our achievements!

Happy Mother's Day! I always enjoy spending Mother's Day with some of my favorite moms. It was a perefect day that started with bootcamp with friends and brunch with family and ended with cat snuggles, some peace and quiet so I could finish listening to a Game of Thrones podcast and some lobster mac & cheese from O's! Now I am ready for episode 5 of Game of Thrones (well as ready as anyone can be when it comes to Game of Thrones...😭)

My favorite moms!

Love being a mom!

Happy NINTH Birthday to Evan! We had an extremely rare night off from all activities and Charlie had a half day from work so we were able to celebrate tonight! Evan chose to go to Moritomo's (Japanese Hibachi) for dinner and then we came home and did presents and cake!

The big flame!

Best. Brithday. Dinner. Ever!

They came out and sang to Evan and rang the gong!

 Birthday treat from Moritomo's!

After dinner we had cake and presents!  No birthday is complete in our house without an ice cream cake from Arnie's!

Kaitlyn makes the BEST cakes!

Happy Birthday little buddy!
