Last week was the last session of soccer for the Spring. Aiden and Court finally got to play on the same team for their last game. Court played goalie and stopped about 5 shots on goal. Aiden was a forward and scored the only goal of the game. What a team! They got little certificates and medals afterwards – so cute!
Aiden was cool as a cucumber when he was called to get his medal.
Court was a crazy man – so excited to get all that attention!
Aiden recently had the opportunity to go to Beginner’s Day at Sharon Elementary where he’ll start kindergarten this fall. He got to meet a few new friends, watch a movie about going to Sharon, and got to ride the bus around the parking lot! Woohoo!
He’s going to be an Eagle!
Here are some photos from our recent May Day weekend with the Ripples and Kennedy families. We decided to take a beach trip before the number of kids outnumber the adults. Chatham is expecting baby girl Ripple in July and Jen is expecting twins (boy and girl) Kennedy in September! Hooray! But before all the babies arrive, we had a little fun!

What a wonderful time! Next year, we’ll be outnumbered!!
We had two weeks of visits from some of the mothers in our family just before Mother’s Day. Bubba came to stay for a few days while Pop was traveling around Charlotte.
Then Grandma came into town to keep up company while Big One went to London for business.
Big One came home just before Mother’s Day and those boys spoiled me. What more can a girl ask for on Mother’s Day?!
The boys and I “camped” out in Aiden’s room. FYI, if you would like to actually sleep, you should not try this at home.
While Scott was away, the boys and I took our first bike ride to dinner where they can actually ride their own bikes! What a milestone!
At dinner
Ice cream for dessert!
This is a good photo of Aiden but I especially love little Court’s face in the background. Ice cream heaven!

This was my gift from Court for Mother’s Day. A beautiful necklace that he made himself. You might expect it to say “Mom” but in fact, it says “EEW.” Feel the love.
Thanks to all of the mother’s out there (especially Granny, Grandma, and Bubba) who lead me in so many ways of life and who teach me to be a better mother every time that I am around them.
