and suddenly it's the last day of May...

Wow, where did this month go?  It has completely slipped away from me (as is seen from my complete lack of blogging lately).  In an effort to once again keep you all updated, I will post a random assortment of our life in pictures (again).  Someday (maybe), I will be more of a consistent blogger.  I keep saying that, though, and it doesn't happen.  We'll see!

And that was May!

life; an update in pictures

It has been much too long since I've updated, so I'll give a quick rundown with some pictures over the past few weeks.

We went to the Minnesota Zoo on Mother's Day weekend with Matt's mom because moms got to go free!  We had a great time.  The weather was fantastic and the girls really enjoyed it.  Here we were on the car ride over:

We didn't get a lot of pictures of the animals, but we laughed when all the camels were lined up like they were ready for a family picture: 

Before the weather started improving, we spend a few days at the Indoor Sports Center in town.  The girls really enjoy just running and playing there.  We're glad we have someplace to go and run when the weather isn't the greatest.

Miriam also likes putting on the costumes at the sports center.  I think this one is a salamander:

We've been continuing to wear matching outfits.  No surprise there.  I can't help myself.

Matt gave me these fabulous flowers (that are still looking fabulous!) for Mother's Day.  Thanks honey!

Other than that, we've been spending a lot of time outside enjoying this wonderful spring/summer weather!
