The end of May!

Wow it has been a while since I last updated this...sorry. I am not sure what has happend.

John had a week off from May 16-May 25....We went to the zoo on the 19th and had a great time. They have a new exhibit of stingrays...you can touch them and feed them. Lucas really enjoyed watching them swim by, he did touch one but that was it just one. They are really slimy. He has such a great time at the zoo talking about the animals and what they are doing. We will definately be going alot this summer.

On the 21st, Johns mom, grandmother, great grandmother, brother and brothers girlfriend came down to go to a Cardinals/Cubs game. It was a beautiful night for a game. It was Lucas' 2nd Major league game.

Memorial Day was a wet one. We had about 6-7 inches of rain in about 4 hours. Our street was flooded. Lucas kept saying look a river....it was a strong enough current to make caps. You can see by the pics it was a lot of water.

Lucas has been having lots of playdates. Tuesday and Thursday of this week Gracie came to visit for a few hours and then friday he got to go to her house and play. Friday evening, friends of ours had a date night and we watched their little girl Yani. She is so sweet. We went for a walk to the park and Lucas kept making her laugh. He asked to hold her which we thought was so great. He has never wanted to hold a baby before.

Well I think I am caught up for the month of May...hopefully June will be better!! :-)

Mushrooms, golf, teeth, and friends......

Interesting title I know...but that sums up the last two weeks for us!

John and Lucas went mushroom hunting a few weeks back and found 2 whole mushrooms...all the hunting tired Lucas out...here is the proof.The golf tourney John was in last week went well...they finished 4 under on 18. The weather was a big factor....it was raining, windy, then fine, then rainy again...here is a pic of his team.

On tuesday May 5th, myself and 2 other dental student spouses went to a local elementary school to promote good dental health. We spoke to 2 1st grade classrooms and a 2nd grade classroom. We had 20 minutes with each class...if you don't know 20 minutes flies by when you have 20 some students asking questions and making comments the whole time. Here are some pics of us. It was a great time!

This past weekend Lucas and I drove to Bloomington to see my college girlfriends! It was just a daytrip and lots of fun. Angie has a little boy who is 1 so Lucas and Logan played together for the first time. We went to MillerPark Zoo in Bloomington, had a group brunch...and just spent time hanging out.

Hope everyone had a wonderful mothers day yesterday!
