We had a busy May, and I thought I'd get some pictures posted to update you all on what has been happening around here.
To celebrate Mother's Day, we had a nice brunch with Mary and my parents, and then we played golf at the club my parents just joined. It was a great day!
Over Memorial Day weekend, we took Mary to the the Holy Trinity Abbey,

a
monastery in
Hunstville, UT. We visited the church and gift shop, and then we headed into the town of Huntsville to the Shooting Star Saloon, the oldest bar in Utah! After enjoying their famous Star Burger and a cheap pitcher of beer (sitting under the stuffed/mounted St. Bernard!), we made a stop at
Snowbasin ski resort before heading home.


Although the weather has still been fairly cold, we have been trying to keep up with our yard -- mowing, pulling weeds, trimming trees and bushes, fertilizing, etc. We have also stained our deck and washed screens and windows....
ahhhh, the joys of owning a home! Joe recently got some new license plates for the 4Runner, now that he doesn't have the truck anymore. Along with house projects, we have made time to play golf with friends, run, mountain bike, and swim. I want

to end this post with a picture of our tulips. I love tulips, but their season has been short this year. We are expecting a couple inches of snow tomorrow night, so there is no telling what our flowers will look like next weekend!
