May!

Caellum finished a year of preschool in May.

He loved preschool! He learned how to write his name and had lots of fun coloring pictures for me.

Connell started taking piano lessons from Maple Leaf Piano Studios. He's a natural and is progressing nicely!

Callister lost several teeth!

Cordellia loves to cuddle with her dog Kara.

Face painting from the Alturas Academy carnival. The kids loved it, of course.




This is a cute display outside of Callister's classroom. We really like his teacher Mr. Walton, and Callister is doing so great at reading.

On May 6th, grandpa Harold Hebdon passed away. He had prostate cancer among other problems he battled for a long time. This is a cute picture from a year ago with grandma at Callister's birthday party. He was always so sweet and loving to all of us. It was such a blessing to have a grandpa again for me. We love him so much and know we will see him again!


Grandpa was buried in Chesterfield, which is an abandoned ghost town now. Grandma's family (the Muirs) were from here as well. This grave belongs to great-great-grandma and grandpa Muir, I believe. The kids are so blessed to have known their great-grandpa Hebdon and to still have grandma Hebdon.

JayC and his brothers and cousins were the pallbearers for grandpa's coffin.

Grandpa Jay, great-grandma Jeniece, Aunt Bonnie, and Uncle Lynn.

Grandpa Hebdon was a WWII veteran, so he had a flag on his coffin, and then folded and presented to grandma.

Oh, the intense feelings it brings for me to witness the respect for our veterans at their funerals. We're so thankful grandpa served to protect our freedom.

On Memorial Day weekend, we had our Lloyd reunion with mom and dad and my siblings and our kids. It was so much fun, although it was wet and rainy. We all stayed in our own cabin in the mountains above Twin Falls. 

We all had fireplaces in our cabins to keep us warm at night. Thank goodness!

The cousins had so much fun playing together!

Mom and dad announcing that their favorite number is "29" for their 29 grandkids!

JayC and Connell folding the flag after flag ceremony.

We love our Lloyd family!

Cordellia and Reese are so cute!

Cordellia learned to wink and loves doing it on video. She does an "eye trick" where she pretends to take her eye out and switch it to the other side.

Cuties!



We took kids to see the movie Labyrinth in theaters. It was fun to relive some childhood memories!
