The merry month of May

May was nice and here are the photos to prove it. The weather finally started to cooperate so we had plenty of play time outside. Tyler and Claire are completely content to goof around in our yard all day.


We ventured over to the Turf Valley hot air balloon festival. This is us pretending to be balloons.

 
Claire has wanted a pet for a looooong time. I broke down and got her a betta and she loves him. His name is Sammy.


The peonies bloomed with gusto again.


Claire made her very own fairy garden. She checks it almost daily looking for evidence of fairy presence.


Tyler did some gardening too. He potted these marigolds for me for mother's day.


We went to the Day Out With Thomas celebration at the B & O railroad museum.


Brian booked us a night at the Gaylord Resort in DC. It was such a great weekend! This was our view of the atrium from our room.


While we were at the hotel Claire lost her first tooth. Tyler was in awe.


The kids did a soccer class together for the first time.



Of course we visited the local petting farm too.

 
We camped at breezy point beach over memorial day weekend.
 

Claire had her first ballet/tap recital and she graduated from pre-K.


I'm still working on downloading the recital video. Hopefully you'll be seeing it soon!
