Everything is growing and changing this May!

We have been very busy this May. Mike had to travel to a conference then was very busy with a conference he organized at Penn State. The kids and I traveled to Rochester while we had Air Conditioning installed in our house. We had a great trip to Rochester, Jeffrey had a wonderful time visiting the 'Museum of Play', The Zoo and the Lilac Festival. When he returned to preschool he told his teachers that Rochester (and Grammie's house) were his 'favorite place'. Meredith did a good job riding in her stroller eating cheese sticks during our many adventures.

We are now happy to be home in State College, our Air Conditioning is all finished just in time for all the hot days that are forecast next week! Jeffrey is finishing up his last few days in the 'Thrillin' Three's' class at Stay and Play. Hard to believe his school year is almost over. He had a great time and made many friends.

Our gardens are busy growing, we ate a lot of spinach mustard greens this week, and all the lettuce is just about ready for the first harvests. I have plans to put in our tomatoes this weekend. And last weekend I planted all our herbs in the new self-watering planter that I got for the deck this year. I am excited to see how that works out in the hot days of summer.

Meredith enjoys a nice evening swing - she loves swinging!

Our gardens are sprouting and growing, just like our kids!
