May 2026

 Happy May!  The school year is coming to an end and our summer calendar is filling up...fast.  

May 2nd:  We went to a Real Salt Lake (professional soccer) game.

May 3rd: bike ride with Abby--She decided to join the mountain bike team, as well!  So...club soccer and mountain biking for her this summer and fall.

May 4th:  It's amazing to sit at Abby's soccer practice and look one direction and see the film studios building and look another direction and see a training facility for the US Ski and Snowboard teams.

May 7th:  soccer game in Salt Lake

May 8th: Today we had Abby's birthday party at Paint Fusion.

May 9th:  Happy 13th Birthday, Abigail!!

That evening, we went to the Art Cafe in Salt Lake.  Instead of ordering food from the menu, you ordered your preferred medium of art, whether it was collage, clay, painting pottery, drawing, or watercolor.  Super fun!

May 11th: When Abby has soccer practice and I want to exercise,  I hike PC Mountain (and get a good view of her practicing).

May 16th: It's one of our favorite days of the year--Running with Ed(ucation)!  This year, our school went with the Finding Nemo theme.  I was Darla (from the dentist's office); Andy was a seagull (Mine! Mine!); Emma was Nemo.

May 18th:  The snow is not done yet.

May 21st-25th:  I flew back to WI to help with my grandma's estate sale.

My mom has some baby foxes living in her culverts.

We went to my grandma's (she is in memory care at a nursing home) and planted flowers with her. She loved it!

Planting flowers made her tired!
