Mother's Day
Jackie had jury duty so Gramps Day Care was open with Dane for a week and the 2 "boys" had some quality time, they played and laughed, ate, drank, ate some more, napped, ate and drank some more still . Dane danced for Gramps, he loves music, going outside and he loves to eat. We had a great time.
May also had, of course, Karen's Birthday- which somehow carried on for several days this year-- starting with a trip to our local "Howl At The Moon" with some of her co-workers and family. We had Ben down for a couple days- he helped Grandma do some grocery shopping, cook supper, bake brownies, read books, helped to make pancakes, joined us at church, and a whole lot of silliness going on. Then on Memorial Day with the "Clan Howard" barbecue or garagecue ( new word from Jackie - grilling in the garage- works for me), where Dane got hold of his 1st rib bone, and did not want to give it up -( see "The Daily Dane blog for pic's) and Karen got her cake. Then it was finally her real birthday and of course off to work she went, where she had more cake and who knows?? and of course our other friends had a cookie cake for her that night. And during all this she is doing this "Amish Friendship Bread" starter thing, so we have fresh breads--mmmh mmmh good.
Bobby stayed busy calling ball just about everyday unless it rained, which we had our share this month. But here it is June now, Karen taking off 2 days in row!!- we'll probably steal Ben away for a day or 2 , maybe we can get Dane too??? for a cousin play date..
