MAY: Tay turns 5, End of Year Activities, Trip to Opelika, Memorial Day Weekend at the Lake, and a Braves Game!

May was filled with tons of fun!  To start the month off, Taylor turned 5 on May 1st.  She got to celebrate at home and at her preschool.  She had such a fun day and even got to go to the pool with her friend.  For her birthday we got her a set of her own golf clubs.  So later that week she got to go to the driving range and hit with her real clubs.  Also towards the beginning of May Taylor finished up soccer, which she loved, and Bryant finished up his season of baseball.  They both had great seasons, with Bryant and his team finishing as runner-ups in their league.  The second week of May brought the end of preschool.  Both Taylor and Thomas had end of year parties that included water slides.  Then Taylor had the most precious preschool graduation.  They wear a cap and gown and it's adorable.  Taylor participated in a program called TOTS, and she had an end of year performance showcasing all of the skills they had learned.  She did awesome!  After Bryant's last day of school we headed down to Opelika for the weekend.  We had not been down there since Christmas, and so this was our first time being down since my parents moved into their new home.  It was so awesome!  We spent time at the pool, which is so fun, and also got to spend lots of time with their cousins.  It was a good, quick trip.  That next week Taylor participated in a cheer camp with a friend.  She of course loved it just like last year.  Then we were gone all of Memorial Day weekend to the lake with friends.  It was such a great weekend.  We all had tons of fun with our friends and tons of fun on the lake.  For the first time ever both Taylor and Bryant got to Zup board and surf (with an adult).  They loved them both!  We left the lake on Memorial Day and headed straight to Atlanta for the Braves game.  Josh had been invited, and our seats and the suite we were in were absolutely amazing!!!  We also let the kids do some of the pregame activities behind the out field.  Taylor zip lined for the first time and loved it.  That seems to be all of the main things for May.  We are enjoying June so far, but I'll post later about that.  Below are tons of pictures!

 She was hot.  So of course they had water sprayers and fans for her. 😉
 Got a ball...so what if it was just tossed from the dugout.  And Tay was sad, so they gave her one too!
