First Weekend in May


The first weekend in May was full of good things! 


We love the Conard family. Making memories together is one of our favorite things to do. For years, the wives have been encouraging the husbands to take an "iron sharpens iron" retreat together. Finally, they were able to find a free weekend. They rode on the beautiful mountain bike trails of northwest Arkansas and filled each other's tanks. These people are always giving, pouring out to serve each person who crosses their path.


While Aaron was gone, I went to the Tadpole Trot as part of our hometown's Toadsuck Daze.


Some cousins of mine were running, and so were some friends I met from my gym family.


Katherine's youth group held a spaghetti fundraiser, and she and I made a strawberry trifle with sweet local strawberries. I love this time of year!


It was a delicious labor of love, used a dozen eggs (egg whites for the angel food cake and a dozen yolks for the pudding), and took us most of Saturday to put together.


Sunday after church, the bowl quickly emptied and helped raise money for church camp.
