It's officially 2019 and I'm looking back at May 2018 and updating some times that are long ago, but a hard time to go back to. We will look back to the happy times and know that the challenges make us stronger...and 8 months later we are still grieving the loss of Rich's dad and sharing wonderful memories with the kids.
Millie, age 3 ....doesn't everyone brush their teeth NEE-KED!
Who doesn't love snuggles....guessing she was sick, but I don't care. I'll take these snuggles any day and ALWAYS!
May Days equal SUNSHINE and BOATING!
I mean...these 2 have been through so much together...and now they have a new partner, but back in MAY, the world was theirs and they were partners in crime together!
The Preschool Music Program...
Griffin with his buddy Jonah!
They've been in class for 4 years now!
When Griffin's class and Millie's class stand next to each other....a mom's dream!!!

Capturing MY HEART!
Post picture treats!
More sunshine...more boating!
Seeing Rich teach the kids his passion gives me so much joy. Seeing the kids love fishing and being on the water as much as we do makes my heart explode.
FISH ON!
A special rose from my Grandma's rose bush.
Busy afternoon of craziness!
So fun seeing the board at school....pretty sure this SUPER STAR will grow up to be whatever his heart desires.
Griffin decided he wanted a NEW hair do.....
YES...there were TEARS....lots and lots of tears!
...but when all was said and done, we had an 18 year old ready to do HARD TIME.
Rocking spin...5 months pregnant. I remember thinking this was close to the end...never did I dream that I would still be cycling up to 2 days before LJ was born.
Rich took a "Fishing Day"...kind of like a sick day, but good for your soul and the kids and I met him in Kirkland for lunch at the Slip and to check out his fish!
Yes, the kids love the Slip as much as we do!
And that was MAY 2018 ....as remembered by my January 2019 "trying to update" the family album self!
