Moments in May

 


May was a big month for our family! We had a lot of things scheduled, and we also had some exciting changes take place! Take a look at all of the wonderful things we were able to experience this May!


May the Fourth be with you!

We celebrated the fourth of May, also known as Star Wars Day at Atrium Ballpark in Kannapolis, NC, where we watched the Cannonballers play an exciting game of Minor League Baseball! We love spending summer nights at the ballpark! It's such a cool place to walk around, and the kids absolutely love the playground and splash pad! FYI, the ballpark playground and splash pad are open to the public when games aren't being played, all summer long!

Big smiles from our littlest girl at the game on the 4th!


Space buns for everyone on the 4th!


We moved!



Cuddling up before bedtime on our first night in our new house.

If you've been following Mommy's Block Party for a while, you probably know that my family and I purchased a 100-year-old craftsman home one year ago this June. We've been slowly renovating it ourselves, and finally got to move in this month! We haven't moved everything in yet- we're doing that slowly, too, but we're residing in our home and getting used to being in a new place. So far, so good!


Trying new things!


Beanie tried rollerskating for the first time!

I am so happy to have a girl who isn't afraid to try new things. With zero trepidation, Beanie zipped out onto the floor at a skating party and tried rollerskating for the first time. I had my hands full with Baby C, so couldn't offer much assistance, but that didn't stop my girl from trying her best to skate her way around the rink! Way to go, Beanie Girl!


Major Career in Ministry Milestone


Celebrating 25 years in ministry at St. John's Lutheran Church, Salisbury!

This May, my dad celebrated his 25th year in ministry at St. John's Lutheran Church in Salisbury, NC. Wow! He's been in ministry for over 40 years, but this marked 25 years in Salisbury- the longest term in ministry in one place. We've been blessed to call St, John's our home for a quarter of a century! Our church celebrated my dad and included our entire family with a weekend party, special recognition during worship, and an amazing and special reception after worship. Congratulations, Dad!


First Family Gathering in Our New Home


Extended family gathered for Mother's Day.


We were able to have our first family gathering in our new home for Mother's Day! It was tricky trying to navigate gathering without a working kitchen, but we figured it out!


Piano Recital


We enjoyed a wonderful piano recital, featuring our B!

B loved his first year of piano lessons, and we are so proud of his determination and progress this year. The recital featured eleven students of all levels and ages. It was a wonderful program, and we're looking forward to resuming lessons in the fall.



School's Out!


End of school luau with my Beanie Girl!

We're celebrating the end of school for the year! 
We had a great first year at our new school, and can't wait for next year!

Long live summer break!



Time to play! Let's get to it!


Happy summer break, all!
