Our major event for the month was the college graduation of Matt and Andy's youngest uncle. Jon's mother came to stay with us for several days, and we were able to see all of the family members who made their way out here for graduation. Unfortunately, since Andy was not well at the time we were not able to spend as much time with them as we all would have liked, and I also have very few photos since my hands were full with Andy. I'm afraid these are all I have:
Grandma reading Matt a story
Grandma helping Matt do his new puzzle that came all the way from Austria (Thank you, Great-Uncle Sepp!)
Matt with Aunt Ane checking out the keyboard at the rental
Matt had another rounds of his Mini Kickers soccer program. (We lucked out: we had good enough weather to play once a week every week in May as scheduled!)
Listening to his coaches
Getting ready to kick the ball
"Graduation"
Posing with his certificate
Our library moved to a temporary location for the next couple of years while they do some renovations. We checked out the new space.
