In the Very Merry Month of May...

Since I haven't been posting much lately, I've compiled a picture journal of my May activities...

Squiggly-Wiggly's 5th Birthday... his first "friends" party. I was so pleased that he chose to collect donations for Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes in lieu of gifts for himself. (I promised him that parents/grandparents would get him gifts.) Here he is with his best friend, Where's the Box's Little Guy, checking out their matching shirts:
Canoing on Mother's Day

Squiggly-Wiggly's Spring Program at his school. The music teacher teaches them worship songs... they learn all the words and the meanings behind them. Sometimes they learn motions as well. Here's a brief clip of "Stand In Awe", which was sung by the entire school (150 students in PreK - 8th grade). Squiggly-Wiggly is left of center, in a white sweater vest with a horizontal blue stripe.

The Greek Festival in my town... we went into the sanctuary at the Greek Orthodox Church to hear about how they worship, and Squiggly-Wiggly decided to try to read the Bible... in Greek!A visit to Hershey Chocolate World on a rainy Sunday.Fuzzy-Wuzzy fell asleep on the couch at the end of watching Mr. Rogers. My children rarely fall asleep if they're not in their beds or carseats. Check out that diapered bottom hanging out of his pants!A visit to my friend Beka's house. Here's Fuzzy-Wuzzy with Faith and Grace:
A visit to my brother's house... my boys got to play with their cousins all weekend. Fuzzy-Wuzzy loves balls:Squiggly-Wiggly on a hike to the water tower:They found a large snake along the way. My brother just had to get its attention with a stick. Check out the size of that thing (click on picture to enlarge). Boys will be boys:
So when I went on my own walk the next day, I opted for the sidewalks as I hoped to avoid 4 foot + snakes!

Great photos! Chocolate World has been huge hit around here. We went for the first time recently.

Hope you're doing well!

The pictures are great! I haven't had the time to read through everything. Thanks for sending the link my way.

By the way, I have a blog myself, although I've only posted once; a satirical piece. I don't think anyone has ever viewed it; it doesn't come up on searches. In any case, here's the link if you want to check it out: http://stophidingfromgod.blogspot.com

Take care!
