I mean...these shoes have been well loved (and used) by both girls and Abby finally agreed it was time to say "good-bye" to them.
With the girls' Junior Ranger pin collections growing, I made each of them this felt holder for their pins. It even has a pocket.
Abby is becoming quite a little fish! Her progress with swimming has been exciting to watch.
April 27th: Emma had some artwork shown at our local art center! Students from all over the area have a chance to show their work. The exhibit was all student art and it was amazing! Emma was so proud (and so were her mom, dad, and Nana)!
Afterwards, we celebrated with dinner at our favorite sushi restaurant.
April 29th: We went on a glorious hike up Bell's Canyon with some friends.
3 miles later (with a pretty steep last 1/2 mile), we were welcomed to this beautiful sight...
May 1st: For Principal's Day, Emma dressed up like our principal
This photo may not look like much, but it means a lot. On May 1st, I "graduated" from physical therapy (for knee issues)! This is a photo of Round Valley, a trail system where I have run hundreds of miles. With my knee injury, I hadn't been able to run since November. Wearing my knee brace, I was back at it in Round Valley last Friday and I felt great! I am only up to 2-3 miles but it's a start.
May 5th: The girls ran in their own trail race--Moose on the Loose.
Abby was in the "mini moose" category and ran a 1/2 mile. She is a fast little runner!
Emma was in the "junior moose" category and ran 1 1/2 miles. She did awesome!
This little girl had a super fun birthday party at the bowling alley and, as a gift for her friends, she made them all frames.
May 6th: Abby had her 5th birthday party at Jupiter Bowl.
As a gift from the bowling alley, all of Abby's friends signed a (real) bowling pin for her to take home.
