1st Day of May Was An Eventful Day

Goodness Gracious, I can't believe it's already May! Today was my daddy's birthday so we had a fun day celebrating with him. This afternoon we went shopping for a recliner as a birthday present for dad. It was a lot of fun trying very comfy recliners the whole afternoon. At Grand my sisters and I tried out the massage chairs, WOW, wasn't that fun. For supper we picked up some BBQ from Smokin Pig and had a picnic at the JMU Arboretum. The Arboretum is SO beautiful this time of year. Here are some pictures I took while there:
We counted 14 turtles.

It was so funny, at the Arboretum there was 1 female duck and 2 male ducks and the male ducks were fighting over the female. I felt so bad for the female!! :)

So Beautiful!

My AWESOME parents!!

This month is a birthday month for my family. My Dad, Mom, and Sister Kate all have birthdays this month. Good thing I am cutting sweets this month. The beginning of a new month means the ending of the past month. And for most of you who read my blog you know that my family gave up TV for the whole month of April. Well, that experience has challenged us to reduce the amount of TV we watch for another month. For the month of May we are deciding to watch only 5 shows a week. We each get to pick a show we would like to watch. It is not expected that we choose to watch a show because after a month without TV I really don't see the point of watching TV at all. Stay tuned this week, because we will be having some little ones (baby goats) soon, and I will be posting pictures.
Take Care,
