May Happenings

May in our family is a very busy month so Jason and I half joke when we say we dislike May and can't wait til the month is over!

It started out with Karissa turning 13 on May 7th. We are now parents of a teenager and it's like having a new baby again because there are no instructions! We have been "blessed" with the rolling of the eyes, attitudes and the looks that she gives us like we're speaking in another language. Don't get me wrong the eye rolling has been going on for a while but it's a new rolling. She is still a sweet child most of the time but a teenager has invaded her body.
Jason and I gave her a ring with 3 sapphires in it and we are using it as a true love waits ring. She is very proud of her ring!! We took her to Red Lobster and she ordered crab and lobster!

On May 14th we are celebrating, with his parents, 25 years of Herko Family Mission. There is a huge banquet on Saturday and Jason's grandmother and grandfather and sister and her little family are coming into town!! We haven't seen Mackenzie since she was a month old-she's 9 months now. It will be fun watching Kendall play with the baby! My girls are so excited that Uncle Joe and Aunt Kika are coming to visit. Then on Sunday Karissa has her piano recital.

On May 20th which is Katie's 7th birthday she has a ballet recital at 7:30. She is in 2 shows and has 2 dances to perform. She also has a show on Saturday so I'm not sure when we are going to celebrate with family. On Sunday I am having a birthday party for the girls at Champs. They both love to roller blade!!

Starting May 7th and ending June 3rd our girls birthdays are 2 weeks apart from each other. So we will end the madness with Kendall's 2nd birthday- wow where has the time gone?!

Happy Easter
