May Day

I am forever behind, as always. Here in Hawaii, the Elementary Schools have May Day celebrations, but not necessarily on May 1st. It was on the 22nd this year. I'm not quite sure how it works, but it is a big deal. It was pretty chilly and rainy, but the kids did such great jobs on their performances. I don't have many pictures of Sienna because it was crowded and I couldn't really get to her. But she was beautiful during her dance.

I was very lucky to be able to attend one of my best friends' wedding in Montana on June 5th. Spencer was attending Youth Conference in Kona while I was there, so we helped my Mom come and watch the kids for the day and a half we would both be gone. Denise and I met while we were room-mates right after High Schoo, right before Spencer and I got marriedl. I am so fortunate to have her in my life because we have an amazing friendship and I don't know what I would do without her. We call each other 'sister' because there truly is no other word to describe our friendship.

Right after I flew in I was also able to visit with Shanna, my step-sister, who I hadn't seen in about 6 years. It was amazing getting to talk with her again in person after all that time and catch up. I am so grateful for it. The trip was a whirlwind, with almost no time to do anything besides attend the wedding, but I am happy I was able to be there for Denise's special day. I don't have many pictures of her and Shawn together, but he is amazing and treats her the way she deserves. I am so happy for her.

I got to give the toast, which just means I made myself and Denise cry

I thought it was cute how the little girls stood and watched them dancing.
