Where did May go??

I didn't realize how long it has been since the blog got updated, but it hasn't been first priority so I'm really not surprised. We have had some fun, but busy couple of weeks. After being excited about getting a house in Oklahoma- it was a little more exciting to pack up our house knowing we have someplace to go. But as packing goes, isn't all that fun. That went on for a couple weeks and will still be going on for a week or two. My mom came into town the week before graduation and was a lot of help with the packing, but we also got a little break with her and took advantage of Colorado one more time. My mom, Ben and I each got a kid and we hiked St. Mary's Glacier. It wasn't a long hike, but there was snow everywhere so that made slipping easy and it cold. However, it was beautiful and well worth it.
The next big event Ben graduating. Yeah!! He got a scholarship and an honor for being in the top 10%. He is such a hard worker, even when things come a bit easier for him. What a great accomplishment- Way to go Dr. Ben!! We are very proud of You!! He has been a great Husband and an especially fantastic Dad. Then we drove to Arizona during the night and the babies slept the WHOLE WAY!! It was great. Luckily we didn't sleep, but it was the best way to go. Spent a couple days in Pinetop with the McDowell crew, then home to Mesa with some Skousen's. The best part about the past couple weeks was the actual vacation we got. No kids for 8 days and got to play in the Caribbean with friends. Life doesn't get much better than that. We missed the kids- they really do grow in a week- but knew they were in good hands. What a deserved Break!! We stopped in Grand Cayman, Honduras, Belize- Key West, Florida. Did some Scuba, snorkeling, ziplining through the jungle, swimming, shopping, sleeping, dancing, eating ice cream...it was great. Here is one pic of us and one of the kids.... I need to find out how to work the slide show option to show off more fun pics. Maybe when life settles down a bit more and I have access to more pictures. We still have to drive back to Denver sometime and move to Oklahoma and unpack. So don't forget to check in with us......
