 We went to Belle's Cottage next and had a great time!  A fun storybook telling of Belle's story.  Andrea and Heather helped out - along with all the little kiddos :)  The mirror starts as the mirror that the Beast gives her father to see her, then grows until you can step through it!

 So fun!

 A and Heath

 The wardrobe spoke!

 Then we moved into the library and Lumiere spoke!

 Then Belle came in and she was spot on!

 So sweet!

Heather, Suz and I flew down to Tampa for our Clover Valley Reunion!  Suz won 4 day passes to Disney in a silent auction, so we headed to Disney on Saturday morning!  It was a gorgeous day and so much fun - I got sick after riding the first ride and powered through a few other things before sitting in the AC for an hour or so and eating a banana and feeling better!  We had a blast and hung out to see the Electric Light Parade and Fireworks, then waited in line for over an hour to ride the Mine Train before heading home!  We left the park at almost 1am and got to Andrea's parents house (where we were staying - beautiful) at 2:30am!  It was a crazy, great day!

Grammy's 68th Birthday

We celebrated Grammy's 68th Birthday on her birthday May 10th!  Whoever was available came over for ice cream sundae's!  We purchased flowers to plant in her yard for the summer and planted them for her - with all the grandkids helping.  I went over in the afternoon and decorated with yellow and blue balloons and streamers.  We also got her Grapefruit Shandy's because she kept saying she could really go for one - and she had a sip of one and a small bowl of chocolate ice cream with some wet walnuts!

Pretty marigolds - orange, yellow and fire ones!

Mother's Day

We had a great Mother's Day - pictured here with the 3 (and dog) ones that I get to be a mother to!

We stopped over that night to see Grammy and got this nice picture with her!

Dan bought me this awesome sign that I wanted - and I knew exactly where I wanted to put it!

Lots Going On

Jack and his boys from his small group walked to 7-11 for slurpees

We got a new to us fridge on facebook!  It's awesome!

Megan and Kylie at Home Depot with Dan

Our YL area is hiring a Staff Associate for our town!  We were so excited to meet them and ask some fun questions and are so thrilled they will be here!

Jack's been rocking on the flag football field

Megan got to babysit our buddies Elizabeth and Paul - and Elizabeth had made cards and pictures for WEEKS prior to Megan coming to babysit, she was so excited!

Kylie completed a slew of skills and got to ring the bell

Dan made a O2 holder for Grammy's oxygen bottles

This way they wouldn't roll around on the floor
