It's the Merry Merry month of May.

Mother's day was perfect. Spencer and our friend Denver made lunch for Adrienne and I, plus 4 kids. We had a great visit, we missed them, they were vacationing in Mesquite for a month. The kids played really well, and we had fun. Spence and Kali bought me a new phone for my bedroom, 4 packages of Icebreakers sour mints, and a bunch of pink daisies (my favorite). Kali made me a butterfly at preschool along with one of those "I know Mom the best" questionaires, here's some of the funny things she wrote.

How old is your Mom? she used to be 7 but now she's 8.
What is her favorite food? Chips and Salsa and Guacamole.
What do you have to do to be a Mom? Work
What is your Mom's favorite thing to do? Go to the mall and see the dragon blow out fire.
Where would she like to go for a holiday? To the movie Camp Rock, where we're going camping

She cracks me up, it's funny the way her brain works. Honestly, I hate the movie Camp Rock, but we are going camping this weekend, and now that we have a trailer, it might be more like a holiday.

I went to the Hannah Montana movie last weekend, and I loved it. It feels like Miley and I are best friends now.

I can't remember if I wrote last about Kali running in the Rattler Run, she did the 3 km down the College/Kin coulee hill and back up. She's a good running partner, she actually ran the whole way. She got a little bored so I let her use my ipod, that really helped. I'm excited to run with her in the future, I'll be chasing her a lot more.

I've been going to the Y with some friends at work. I find that 5:30 am is a good time to go, I get home at 6:30 ish and go back to bed for an hour. I really need to get a program made for me though, but I feel proud that my legs are still strong, I did sets of 300 lbs on the leg press for my quads and calves.

Kali and I built some boxes to do a square foot garden, I hammered my thumb pretty hard, I handled it really well. Later Spencer asked her what I did when I hit my thumb, she said I said "Ouch". Our garden plot is actually pretty big right now but, this year we want to try something different so we are going to add some ease and organization to our attempt at gardening. Last year was pretty successful, I hope we can diversify with some herbs this year.

Well, only 33 more school days till summer, I can't wait for the break.

p.s. We were coming home from Wal-mart today and Spence said he was so hungry he could eat a horse. Kali said "That's gross Dad, it's not even made of chicken!"
