A Month of Celebration!

So May is a busy, busy month of stuff for us. And now here I am already half way through!

May's Month of Celebration --

-Cinco de Mayo: Ok, we really do anything fun to celebrate this just made salsa and queso.

-Mother's Day: Sadly we weren't back in Michigan to celebrate with both of our lovely moms but they did get there presents via the UPS man.

-End of year #1: So yes, Ben is done with his first year of grad school! Only 1 (ish) more year to go :) He finished up last Wednesday with an extremely hard final, that he spent almost 4 days preparing for. He hasn't gotten the grade back yet so we have no idea how he did. So to celebrate the end of the year, Ben's friend Jonathan took him fishing in the Gulf. Wade fishing might I add - meaning they were standing in water chest high (along with the jelly fish and sting rays swimming around their feet, they did have shoes on though!) fishing! They caught a couple but I still had to make dinner that night!

-Memorial Day: Ok, so that hasn't happened yet. But our plans for the weekend include driving 9+ hours to the Buffalo River in Arkansas, where we are going to canoe and camp along the river with a group of friends for 2 1/2 days. So I will be sure to post pictures (hopefully not one's of me in the water!) once we get back.

-May 25: Happy Birthday Dad W!

-May 27: Happy Birthday Mom H & Mom W! Yes, in case you forgot our mom's have the same birthday!

-May 30: Any guesses?? Haha, ok so can you believe it has been one year since our wedding? I sure can't. We aren't sure what our plans are yet, probably a day trip to Houston, Austin, or Galveston. Depending on what the weather forcast.

Then we come to June... and Hopefully we will be back in MI for a week or so.

Have a great rest of the month and we will (hopefully) see you next month!
