Project Life May 16-31

The last 2 weeks of May were packed with so many fun activities!! Honestly, it was hard to pick just one picture for some of these days :)

 May 16 - Bennett is counting his funds for Disney World :)

 May 17 - There is quite a story in getting this wonderfully sweet friend over to our house to play... it involved their teacher and a translator so that the parents could communicate. They had the BEST time. I wonder what they were talking about out there on the wall :)

 May 18 - Talking zoo! Bennett was a tazmanian devil - complete with homemade costume designed by Bennett (and sewn by Nana :) His speech was fabulous - wanna hear it? 

 May 19 - We're in Disney! This trip will merit it's own post, but here's a picture from Thursday at Magic Kingdom. One of my favorite memories of this night is when Bennett gave his Winnie to Pooh trading pin to Pooh. Just because he wanted Pooh to have it. He is seriously a great kid :)

 May 20 - The big day. Star Wars Weekend opening day. Here are the boys on our way into the newly redesigned Star Tours ride. It was awesome. As was the whole day.

 May 21- Bennett chose to go to EPCOT on Saturday. He loved meeting Chip and Dale.

He really wanted to go back to the hotel and swim :)

 May 22 - We headed back home on Sunday afternoon, but we spent the morning at Downtown Disney. Believe it or not, we didn't spend a dime in the lego store... we already have everything :)

 May 23 - Bennett completed his own Disney scrapbook for show and tell. His sweet teacher allowed him to share his trip with the class on Wednesday. This was a very proud moment for this memory-keeping mom!

 May 24 - I completed the book for Bennett's teacher. Each student filled out a right-hand page with information about 2nd grade and I took a picture of each student for the left hand side. This is Bennett's section... look at that cursive writing :)

 May 25 - Class party day!! We celebrated with a Fiesta!! Here is Bennett with his wonderful teacher... we're really going to miss her!

 May 26 - The last day of 2nd grade. Does he look a little excited? Also, please note all of those key chains on his backpack. Key chains are his 'thing' I think.

 May 27 - On our way to visit the Wargos! Brad was able to get done with work around noon, so we got an earlier start than we thought. Traffic around ATL wasn't kind, but we made it there before our bedtime...

 May 28 - S and Bennett. This picture is priceless. Every parent had told the kids 'no' to slushies... the next time we turned around, Brad was handing out money and the kids were thrilled! Look at those colorful tongues :) We had a good time at the music in the park - complete with a gourmet meal prepared by the guys.

 May 29 - Another great meal on Sunday night - and a little good wine as well :) This is taken with my phone, so the quality is a little lacking.

 May 30 - On the way home we made a detour to the Dwarf House - the original Chick-fil-a restaurant!! Bennett got the royal treatment, complete with a behind-the-scenes tour by Ross. It was a wonderful end to a great weekend. What a way to start our summer!

May 31 - Another cell phone pic :) We spent the afternoon with Nana and Evie and played Clue. Nana won both times... and was the murderer both times! Who me?? :)

Happy Summer!!
