May

May was a very busy month! We were blessed to have Jason's parents and Grandmother here the second weekend in May for Mother's Day and Jason's Graduation from the Police Academy. It was a wonderful weekend, it started off with us finding out that we are going to be having a little boy in October. Later that day, we signed all the paperwork to purchase our first car together. Proudly we drove our new car to the hotel to meet Jason's family. We were so excited to see everyone, it had been a while since the last time we were able to spend time with Jason's family. We took a spin in our new car with Jason's parents and Grandmother to find that our newly purchased car was leaking gas...more like pouring gas out of the front end. I was in total shock! We called the man we bought the car from and he told us to quickly bring it in and they would give us a rental car for the weekend. We couldn't even make it to the car lot, so they came to us thank goodness. I decided right there this could be the start to either a really bad weekend or we could be on the up swing and everything would go great from here! Thank goodness everything else went smoothly. We had a relaxing weekend with lots of time to spend with family. Jason Graduated Monday May 12th and Miriam made a beautiful cake to celebrate.

The Next few weekends were just as busy. My dad celebrated his birthday at a crime scene while we all ate his Birthday dinner without him. My sister and her two precious children came to town so she could get her wisdom teeth taken out and to help with the surprise birthday party for my mom. We actually surprised my mom for the first time in probably forever with a 50th birthday Luau! It was really fun. Jason was sworn in as a Garner Police officer May 23rd.

Then we finished off the month with Grandma and Grandpa's 50th wedding anniversary party. May went by too quick, we loved all the time we got to spend with family!
