CINCO DE MAYO
After a night of Ray and I partying hardy (sarcasm) at the Ridgefield High School prom aboard the Portland Spirit, we started the next morning at the water front celebrating Cinco De Mayo with Grandma Julia. Xavier enjoyed a few rides and we all enjoyed yummy Mexican food!
REDMOND TO CELEBRATE BIRTHDAYS AND MOTHER'S DAY
The weekend of May 11th to 13th we packed up and headed over to Central Oregon to be with my family to celebrated my dad's, Ray's (31), and Xavier's (3) birthdays as well as Mother's Day. My brother and his family were able to be there is well. It's always lots of fun to get the whole family together. Unfotunately I don't take very many pictures because my mom and dad are like the poparazi. So here's what we have...
Ray's Birthday (May 10th) the night before we left. Xavier had to help blow out the candle.
At the American Red Cross (where my Mom works) open house.
Emery's time with G.G.
XAVIER TURNS 3!
This year Xavier was really in to his Birthday. We've been reading "Arthur's Birthday" and it just so happened that Arthur has the same Birthday as Xavier (it even shows it circle on a calander!). So for the past couple months since we got that book, he's been gearing up for his birthday party. May 25th was this past Friday. He got his first present in the morning before we left for work...a Lightening McQueen potty seat (the even cooler thing is that he used it MANY times that day). Later that evening Grandma Julia and Papa Ray came over to help us celebrate the birthday boy. We went out to dinner then came home to open presents and eat some "cake with fire" (candles).
