Field Trips, Iowa, Birthday Fun, Soccer and Moving

 The beginning of May started out with a few field trips.  The first was a trip to Fresno to see the Broadway hit Aladdin.  Zane and I had a great time with friends and he loved the show.

Right after the Channel Islands we flew to Iowa to spend time with Grandma and family.
We kept busy doing projects around the house and having lots of fun with cousins.

Zane had a few soccer games in the month of May.  At one of the games Zane was picked as player of the week for showing Integrity.

Some fun and crazy news for us as a family at Hartland.  In May, we were offered a different house here at camp.  It had some good benefits for us as a family so we have been in the middle of packing up and moving across camp.  One of the big issues that Casey said he would take care of was moving the piano.  Enjoy some pictures of how it was done.

Thanks for following along this month.  We are finishing up the move in the next few weeks and summer is right around the corner.
