summer is coming

Medals finally came in on Tuesday from Emmy's state meet on Mother's Day!  She placed for vault (tied for 5th), beam (tied for 4th) and floor (6th).  She also completed her first SOL test (standardized state testing) on Tuesday so we stopped at Bruster's on the way home from the gym to celebrate!


Her team placed 10th in the state!


We enjoyed dinner in the town of Ashland on Wednesday night.  


Jason and Bryce went to their first Squirrels game of the season on Thursday night.


I got peonies last year for Mother's Day.  One plant had already bloomed for the season and the other was still young.  I had no idea what to expect this year but I was so excited when I saw the color.  The other plant is white but it hasn't bloomed yet.


Bryce went to the river for the weekend with his baseball team so we had Emmy all to ourselves so we headed to Kings Dominion for opening day.


She was excited to ride all the roller coasters she's been too short to ride.


Fast, bumpy, upside down, she loved them all!


She requested a ride on Nana's golf cart.


We wrapped up the night with a movie on the deck.


Bryce's team spent two nights at the river and had lots of fun fishing, kayaking and playing wiffle ball.


It takes a special person to invite 9 boys to the river for a weekend!


It was hot on Sunday so Emmy asked us to pull out the water slide.  She invited a friend over and they played for hours!


I was so happy to see Bryce on Sunday afternoon when he got home.  


We wrapped up the weekend with smore's around the fire.
