The Week That Was... May 13th - 19th!

The week that was May 13th - 19th was another busy week in May (with tons of pictures to prove!) which included our upstairs AC unit going out. Got to say that was tons of fun... waiting for AC men to come inspect and estimate and give us the great news that we needed a brand new unit! 
So onto something a little more exciting...

1. Sunday was Mother's Day!! We took a couple of quick pictures of the girls and I before heading downtown to watch the Grizzlies play...



In honor of the Grizzlies...


2. After church, we ran home changed clothes and then headed downtown. We ate a quick lunch at Dyer's and then headed to the Fed Ex Forum to cheer on the Grizzlies. Jeremy and Lillie hung out in the concourse during the introductions (because she doesn't like the fireworks) and Annie and I cheered them on!



 This one was actually taken from my cell phone... I thought it was pretty impressive!


Our sweet girls cheering on the Grizz!


Being silly!




Finishing up those Dyer's Burgers!

We Believe!! It was a lot of fun to see it so full!


Love!



3. The girls being silly on Monday!



3. Trip to the Zoo! We met up with a few friends to check out the animals and have a picnic lunch!

4. Ireland books - one year for Christmas the Irelands gave the girls a couple of the recorded books from Hallmark. One book is read by Gramps and Mimi and one is read by Tim and Peter. They still love them and giggle when they hear them. I was making their lunches and heard them looking at them so I grabbed my phone and got a couple shots of them looking through them. Annie kept saying "Mimi book"!




5. Just a couple of cute pictures of Annie being silly after dinner!



6. Ballet Rehearsal - Thursday and Friday Lillie had a group dress rehearsal with all the classes to get ready for their performance on Saturday.  Of course, Annie had to get in it as well - bun and all!



7. Friday after rehearsal, we went to Cheffy's for dinner. Here are a couple of shots of the girls eating their Gelato. Annie had Blueberry w/cookie crumbles and Lillie had Mango!



8. Saturday was a big day filled with birthday parties and dance recitals!
We started the morning at the Heffington's for Morgan and Lauren's Birthday Parties. They had so much fun painting their canvas and playing outside.


Birthday girls: Lauren and Morgan


Meg and Lillie being silly as usual!


Annie checking out the trampoline! She was hilarious on it!


All worn out!


9. Now time for some ballet! IPC Ballet Around the World!
Lillie dressed and ready... well without her shoes that we had to go get!
