May Box

I really enjoyed this month's Birchbox. I really loved the tea, the lip balm, and the serum.

Lily's Favorite Spot

Lily has her favorite spots in the house:
  1. On top of a pile of pillows
  2. Right beside your leg on the couch
  3. On top of our blankets
  4. On top of the couch back
  5. On top of the couch arm
But, her favorite place of all is on our lap. She looks so happy sitting here with Jar.

Building a Computer

Cam loves technology...a lot. He has always wanted to build his own computer. He has been saving money for a while, so yesterday he got it from Amazon. He was sick for 2 days waiting for it to get here. He was like a little kid at Christmas when it got here. He had so much fun putting it together. Hey, and it worked, so that is a good thing.

Last Piano Recital

This past Sunday Cam had his last piano recital. He was very excited to end this chapter in his life. He loves piano, but he was ready to just focus more on piano music that HE wanted to play and not what the teacher wanted him to play.

We are so thankful for his piano teacher that he had for the past 5 years. She has been amazing! He has grown so much since having her as a teacher.

Cam won some awards...
     1) completing Syllabus with distinction
     2) completing Syllabus Level 10
     3) outstanding musician

We are so proud of him.







We celebrated by stopping at McDonald's for ice cream cones. Grandma and Barry came to the recital, so they met us at McDonald's as well.

Song of the Week

This is Michael's and my song. It was from the movie Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, which we saw on our first date.

Baseball Tee

I absolutely love baseball tees. They are probably my favorite kind of clothing. I only own 2-3 of these, but I really love them.
