Mid-May we went strawberry picking. Jason was a huge helper.
Carson enjoyed the eating of the strawberries as much as the picking.
Following the path back to where we would wait for the tractor ride back to the parking lot.
Jason is also thoroughly enjoying the strawberries.
The kids and I also enjoyed another trip to Wheaton Regional Park for Madison's preschool field trip/picnic. Madison took part in an at-home preschool with about 5 other kids.Madison really enjoyed the train ride.
All the kiddos (including younger siblings) lined up ready for lunch.
Another view of a few of the kids.
After lunch it was time for the carousel ride. Jason is a bit apprehensive but having a good time.
And Madison is having a blast.
As is Carson.
We didn't have to wait until the hot summer months to get our pool out....temps in May were warm and the kids are always up for a little swimming.
Jason enjoys a moment on the raft.
And now that he's rested he's ready for a water fight with squirt bottles.
Over Memorial Day Weekend we enjoyed a camping trip just a few miles away....this was our first adventure at camping since Madison was 6 months old so we decided to stay close to home. One other dad and daughter joined us for the weekend and we had a few other couples came up for a campfire one night.

And the see-saw. It appears that Madison and Jason are carrying a little bit more weight!
At our campsite Jason enjoyed putting rocks and pebbles in the front loader.
Our sleeping quarters...actually very spacious....we had 2 full air mattresses and 1 single in there, with a little room to spare.
And they sleeped well, at least once they went to sleep.
The last week in May Madison participated in a ballet class...she was in the same class the summer before and really enjoyed it. The instructor is a Christian girl from church so all the music is Christ focused and she has such a heart for the girls....I wish she taught year around.

Listening to the teacher's instructions.
And no post about a ballet performance would be complete without a video of it.
