Birthday/Nurse's Week/Mother's Day

May is a busy month, there are a lot of celebrations going on. I turned 27 a couple weeks ago-which is so crazy! I can't believe I'm inching up to 30. What is going on?

It was also Nurse's Week last week, which is always a nice way to be honored for the hard work us nurses do everyday. We had a lot of food and treats at work all week, and it was awesome :)

Last Tuesday evening, it was nice out for once, so we took Emma to the zoo. It was awesome because we were like the only people there, so we were able to just let Emma run around and do her own thing. And she had a blast!!

We had a busy weekend again, and we had some nice weather as well. On Saturday, we brought some lunch out to the Greenhouse and then stayed out there and "helped" with the customers. Basically, we supervised Emma who had a ball playing in the sandbox and running through the Greenhouses. We also picked out the plants for our garden and our planters.

Jim and Barb bought some chicks a couple weeks ago, so we had to show them to Emma. Also she begged for a "ride" on the 4-wheeler.

After a fun afternoon on the farm, we headed back into town to go to Abby's second birthday party. Emma had a blast running around with all the kids and playing with all the new toys.

Sunday was a little quieter day. We went to church, John went to softball practice, and Emma and I took a long afternoon nap. Emma battled a cold all weekend, and she didn't sleep much on Saturday with all the activity, so Sunday was a day to catch up.

We did eventually make a trip to Costco, Target, and then we ate some supper at Zoup. It was a great weekend, but very busy.

This week has been cold, rainy, and just kind of depressing. I am not a fan of highs in the 50s in the middle of May. But the week is half over, and on Friday we are heading to Minnesota again, because we have a Twins Game to attend on Saturday. Should be fun!

Have a great week!
