Memorial Day Weekend I took the kids camping with our friend's the Kelly's. They had some relatives in Waddy, KY with a beautiful property we camped on. The kids went fishing in the pond. The only terrible part was a downpour around 10PM. The Kelly's didn't have a rain fly over their tent so their tent got soaking wet. So all the kids slept in the 4 man tent that was meant for us and I slept in the car. Not so relaxing...but the daytime was fun! |

| Thula killing it on the soccer field. |
 |
| Lela's first hair cut. Age 7. I didn't have her hair combed nice before the appointment so I was little embarrassed when the hair dresser saw it. She had lots of tips for me! |
 |
| After the appointment we went to Thula's soccer barbecue at school. |
 |
| I chaperoned Lela's 1st grade class to the zoo. It was fun. |

| In the weeks leading up to Derby there are many activities. One of them is the hot air balloon race. The night before you can watch them glow in the dark. At certain times throughout the night they all light up. It was pretty, but I never got a good picture of it. |
 |
| We went with another family we met through Lela's school. |

| Deflating the balloons afterwards. |
