Many, many months worth of pictures!

There are so many months worth of pictures I haven't uploaded.  There will be no rhyme or reason to this upload and normally I try to collage my pics so there are not quite so many to view, but due to time constraints, I opted to just do the upload ... no collaging and pretty much no editing, unless they were edited prior to the upload taking place.
One of the many colorful taping jobs I have done on my knee.  This one comes in a kit like this, not my creation.

I took the kids to Kaw Point for some pictures.  I somehow lost all of them and most of my Nashville pictures.  I was able to recover a small amount of my files but will have to edit from the photo shoot and upload later.

Korinne's last day of school (May 10th) and her first day of school.

A pic Karlee's teacher sent

The FroYo 5k - all 5 of us did the 5k.  The kids had a blast but I think they realized they should have taken their training a bit more seriously :)

On our way from parking to where the race took place.  Karlee is already tired - haha!




Stretching before the big race

















Free FroYo after the race!


Our medals were spoons



Karlee was using her medal to eat after the race

We headed off to our second race of the day later that afternoon.  We went to the Concerned Care Turtle Run and ran the last mile of a marathon with Ben.  They log their miles up to 25.2 and then run the last mile together at Macken Park.






And we're off!


Pa and Kohen in the lead


Kohen wins!



There was a picnic afterwards.  They played bags and we won some prizes!

LONG day - everyone was tired!




First and last day of school.  They got out on May 23rd.
It was POURING when they got home from school.  I mean, POURING!!  That didn't stop Karlee from dancing in the rain. 

Spring pics - Kindergarten and 2nd Grade

Our 9th anniversary was May 12th.  We went to the Yardhouse to celebrate.  These pics are definitely a little out of order .... Mark ordered the Hot Chicken (a Nashville staple), which he liked much better than the version he had in Nashville.








My mom and I went to Carrie Underwood on the 15th. She put on a great show! Easton Corbin was there opening for her (pic above)





















Melissa and Keith came into town and a group of us headed to the Rpyals game. Pictured above is the coozie Keith purchased at Rally House.  He was pretty proud of his purchase (Floridian :))  They also had to purchase "warm weather" Royals gear!
Mark and Marcus.  Marcus was out!

The crew





We ran into a few familiar faces - Greg, Jamie, Kale and Cora

We also went to the game the night before with the kids and mom, dad and Ben.  It was a rainy, cold night! Korinne was prepared, though, and had the umbrella up in the car!

































I spy feet hanging from the ceiling!




She loves her rainbow hair










Field Day

Covering up all the barbies after their shower




This is quite the outfit! I had no idea she had this on until I woke her up in the morning.



Karlee's caterpillars from her friend Brynley's birthday party.





Making candy necklaces









A note from Kohen after he got in trouble and had to go to his room


Riding out the storm in the basement.

Still riding it out ... and occasionally playing.



They love to put A LOT of makeup on and then pose.





She was hoping for a puppy. One day!

making stepping stones


Jaxy's Minion birthday party


Fun with the neighbors

My station at the carnival ... I am behind the guy in red, serving up Shatto ice cream

My station at field day

More field day



Brynley's birthday party

Karlee's class




Last class selfie of the year!

This is how we get through the carwash.  The carwash terrifies the girls!

Memorial Day picnic with the Gibbs side of the family.
All of the cousins, minus Jason

The girl cousins

The cousins' kids

The Gibbs brothers and sister and their spouses



The Gibbs cousins. This time with Jason :)


Nashville - Mark and I went out to Nashville and met Melissa and Keith to run the Rock N Roll 1/2 marathon.  Mark's first half marathon and my last (per dr's orders due to my knee). I can still run, just not the long distances.





















 The Parthenon





 Some pics of the kids scattered in.  Taken at Grammie and Pa's while we were in Nashville.

On our way to the race







Walking to the VIP area before the race

She fell asleep outside her room.  I guess she got tired while playing and came out and just keeled over.

Karlee always wonders why we never have pictures of her sleeping.  I guess Korinne just sleeps more than the rest of them ... now she has a recent one














 The school carnival















Kohen made our family out of Lego Bionicle characters

 Slip n slide time!



 Karlee's caterpillars became butterflies yesterday.  We set them free!










Nashville somehow got separated from the prior Nashville pics. Our last night is pictured above.




























 Tenley's birthday!  Our pre-party as we headed out to meet up with them. Thank goodness we had Mike to drive us all around!

Neil and Tenley


Dancing at Neon Wild after dinner

The crew on the way home - should I say it was good we had Mike driving us around again?  Probably can tell by the picture.

Amy, Sarah, Tenley, Stacey, Angie, Abbie, me, and Anne Marie




 Celebrating Chris' new job at the Boulevard Brewery.

 We headed to the Great Wolf Lodge for Kohen and Karlee's birthday. They opted out of a friend party in order to stay here.  We had a great time! This was on our way there.


































 After getting home from GWL











 Can you see the amount of lip gloss she applied before going to bed ... not to mention the accessories!


 She LOVES accessories!

Not my outfit choice .... as long as she is happy, I guess!

Another note from Kohen when he got technology taken away for something he did.





 My mother's day cake, made by Karlee and Korinne.


 We took Karlee to the Royals game at the beginning of the season.  She LOVES going to the games!
My lovely knee brace they fitted me for back in April.
