May-all of the things



So.Many.Snuggles at night during this quarantine. Every night we lay down on this giant sleeping bag & stay up way too late (sometimes it is close to midnight when we go to bed) & watch a movie. It is such a fun tradition and I know that I am going to miss it.  

We started letting the boys play with neighborhood kids, outside only. It has changed the entire rules of the game. As it turns out, kids are supposed to be with OTHER KIDS, not adults, all day. 

He will always, always find a dirt hole/hill.

The quarantine s'mores in the aluminum pan were a hit with the kids on the street. So random, but also pretty delicious. 

Max wants us to make them every night. 

Slip & Slide fun!


Bradon hung up our flag and it looks awesome!

He is starting to ride his bike so much more often and it makes me happy because it reminds me of my childhood. 

The weather has been awesome. 

Random painting of some random thing. 

He caught a lizard tail, but missed the actual lizard. 

Love this boy & his love of America. 

He is seriously interested in being a survivalist and I love it. He sharpened this stick to make a spear. 

He got a new kite for Easter & we finally got it up one day. 

Max & I rode over to the other side of the neighborhood one day & he found some buddies. 

Aderson is trying to teach Max how to play Fortnite. Anderson is SO much more patient than Max is and it is actually kind of sweet to watch him. Max mostly gets mad because he dies/loses and tries to throw things, but it is a work in progress.  

Mother's Day with my loves. 



Social Distancing visit to GG for Mother's Day!



We ate Jimmy John's, followed by a cake that Eden made for Max's birthday. 


We all went to visit Pappaw in his new place, which is right down the street. 

Social Distancing visit to Mom for Mother's Day!

We ate Chili's on their porch!

ALL of the snuggling. 

Max's class did a drive-by his teacher's house and it was really bittersweet. 

I love his teacher so much and it made me sad to see her and know she won't have him next year. 
He loved hanging out of the sunroof with his sign. 

SO many quarantine s'mores. 

Max is hidden in there with his ghillie suit. I literally did not see him and when he lifted his head, I thought he was a rabbit. 

Anderson did some b-ball training with a real VFL, Lamonte Turner. 

Our neighborhood is the best. 

This husband is also the best. 

I took these 2 to Ijams and they had the BEST day-they caught every phase of the frog life cycle, lizards, salamanders, newts and a snake!

He ALWAYS ends up in the water whenever we go anywhere. 

I caught this snake for him because I knew that he would be so happy. He was. 

He caught 2 lizards at once-they both bit him!

Anderson & his friends convinced Brandon and another dad to take them swimming at The Cove. 

The Best. 

Willow loved Brandon. 

We introduced our girls to Quarantine S'mores. 

Memorial Day cookout with Noni & Bop

Max was in HEAVEN at the library park

Brandon and Tron.

Max & his friends from the other side of the neighborhood. 

 Visiting Noni's backyard with the neighbors.

 Max has become obsessed with catching snakes at the library park. He is actually really good at it, which is so random.
 Memorial Day cookout with Noni & Bop. 

 Max & I rode our bikes to the park one day to catch snakes. (The 3 of of us rode ours another day, but I did not get any pics.)
 All camo, all day.
 Another snake-this time we brought gloves.
 Happy place.
 We ate INSIDE at Blaze one day & it was delicious.
 America is our favorite.
 Uncle Curtis painted these shoes for Max!
 We have been to our pool for at least 3 HOURS every day since it opened.
 I love our neighborhood.
 One day Anderson bribed Max to rub his legs. I found this really funny.
We FINALLY have a microwave!!!! Ours was broken for 2 months, which happened to be the 2 months that were trapped at home, eating 78 meals/day.
