We spent a day over at Grandma and Grandpa Nettesheim’s house. The 3 oldest got to try the go cart that he made. Then we had lunch and they had the slip n slide and little pools out. The Wrights were there too! It was fun to spend the day away from our house.
Grandpa’s helpers!

Summer is officially here! Memorial Day, then swimming at PG pool and on Wednesday we met up with a bunch of the cousins at Heritage Park on the last day of May! We are off to a fun start:
We worked hard and played hard and ended the day with a barbeque at mom and dads house:
Ben spent the day in the garden getting it cleared out, tilled, and planted. He took breaks to get the family donuts and water toys. I did laundry and mowed the lawn and helped the kids play in the water.
At 4:30 we headed over to mom and dads house for the rest of the day. We had lots of good food and sat out on the deck visiting while the kids played. Everyone was excited for Moms home made brownies. Cousin time is always a good time.
After school we went to Jamie’s and PLAYED 10am – 12:30
Tea Party with ellie
Mini arcades are fun too – right Lily?
and dinner at Texas Roadhouse with Pete, Amanda, and Lily

Rose is done with Kindergarten! She had a great year. She went every day without a fight. She was in the same class as Ellie and next door to Gentry, and She loved all of the new friends. Mrs. Crockett did not disappoint! She is SOO good and we are going to miss her SOo much now that she’s not teaching here next year.
Rose! and Ellie! and Gentry!
and then we went out to get Milk Shakes with Grammee!!
another GREAT dance festival:
It felt like the month of April was one of our busiest ever! We went on 2 trips and had lots of guests at our house. We spent time with ALL of the Nettys and most of the Robertsons, 10 of my 11 siblings! Ben went and got a new job during the craziness and finished up almost 10 years of working at MOZY! All the while coaching soccer 4 nights every week and soccer Saturdays from 9am-4pm, Piano started back up for the 3 oldest, Scouts for me, Ben, Benji, and Packer, Activity days, and 2 trips to the ER. We did manage to go to school and get homework done also! That will be a month to remember 🙂
