Jeremiah turned 31 on May 8...he said it was anticlimactic. He got a motorcycle for his birthday (and Father's Day and our Anniversary) all under the guise of saving gas money! He loves it and rides as often as he can. Since he already had his present, we made his day special by making a fabulous dinner of filet mignon and tempura shrimp. I even made homemade rolls. The next day, we went to sushi with three other couples to celebrate Jeremiah's birthday the day before and Andy's birthday a day later. Good company makes for a good time! Thanks, friends!
On May 17 Jeremiah ran his first half marathon. He finished in 2 hours and 30 minutes, placing 62 overall. We got to watch him take off, then didn't catch up with him until after he finished and was relaxing on the massage table (Davis had to go home for a nap!). Later that night, we went to dinner with Troy & Jana and Denise & Matt. More good company! We're so grateful for great friends in our life!
Jadee's hair was getting really ratty this month, so I decided to give her a little trim. She was done about half-way through...you can see how relaxed she is in the first photo, then note her fed-up posture in the second! Even though I just took about an inch...made a world of difference in the combing out every day!

Davis got his first haircut on May 24 in anticipation of his birthday and special cake pictures. It is pretty tricky to cut a 1 year-old's hair! Although it is not perfect, a little water and some gel do wonders to hide the uneveness of it and he looks pretty handsome...if I do say so myself.
Before During After
Davis turned one on May 25. The Friday before, my friend, Mindy, made him a beautiful blue cake to match his plaid birthday shorts. On Saturday after his haircut and after Auntie Heather arrived to help out, I took pictures of him diving into his birthday cake. He loved it! We're glad Auntie Heather was there!
I think I will dedicate an entire blog to Davis' fancy birthday cake pictures...they turned out sooooo cute! So...coming soon!We had a special day at Grandma & Grandpa's in Fallon opening presents and playing.
Well, I'm sure that much else happened during the month of May...but this blog is already long enough, I'm sure, and LONG over due!

I loved that recap of May. First of all Happy birthday Jeremiah! That is so awesome that he got the bike. I bet he loves it so much! You are the best wife to make him such a gourmet meal as well! The picture with the kids at the table is adorable. Also, we had no idea he was such a great runner. Tell him that is amazing. We are proud of him. He and J.R. are both taking on the marathons now, I guess. The pictures of Davis are priceless. I can't wait to see the rest of the cake pictures. They are so adorable. Happy Birthday to him too! Can you beleive both our babies are 1 year old. Time goes by too fast!
You are great that you can cut the kids hair. The both looked beautiful. Thanks for sharing such cute moments!
Also appreciated the May re-cap, it was fun to catch up with you guys! You have a pretty cute husband, even if he is so old...!
How long did it take to get the blue frosting off? It looks like it might've wanted to stay on...Monte's first cake was blue too, and it slightly dyed his skin for a bit. Love the haircuts, you did a really nice job.
Welcome back to blogging...now it's time for me to catch mine up too!
