We actually got to spend a whole month at home. No running around on airplanes or trips or anything, and it was pretty good. John and I got the important work of getting a will and testiment written up, witnessed and signed. So Jet has a safty net, now, and that's quite the relief.

Jet checked out at his checkup. Yay! We had a really fun Mother's Day with a preview of what it might be like to have three kids. Then again, Haley and Alex are remarkably well behaved kids. Now that Haley's two, I might get a mite more experience with what those Terrible Twos are really like. Maybe. I, of course, bought cooking equipment for Mother's Day and used it fairly frequently there on.

We got some much-needed rain, though it was just enough to make May an average May for precip, and all of Colorado is now well into a third year of drought. It's going to be interesting to see how the thunderstorms of summer work out. In the heat wave, we went to the Erie Fair, the Boulder Creek Fair, and dropped in at the first of the Farmer's Markets.

The month ended with colds for everyone, and the Miller's moths getting really thick in the area as they migrate on through. I really thought they'd be gone, sooner, but they've just gotten even more numerous at the end of the month. The Avalanche got knocked out of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, but the World Cup is just beginning. A whole month of soccer to look forward to. Yay!
