Month of May!

The month of May has been an absolute whirlwind! With cleaning, packing, reports, and all that goes into finishing up my first Kindergarten year... I can say... I have been a bit busy. While I have been spending many days and nights at school, I have enjoyed some wonderful events that I did not want to forget. Enjoy a picture post of our May adventures.

Nurse Rachel's Grad Weekend

Wednesday night, after an afternoon of parent/teacher conferences, a five hour adventure with the husband, and many texts later, we arrived in Sugar Land to greet some very excited faces. Our Alabama family had traveled all day and arrived only moments before. We were excited to finally be home with our Zellner family and embark on an extremely exciting weekend celebrating my sister-in-law Rachel or as Miss Olivia calls her, Nurse Rachel. 

Please get ready for the longest picture post to date...

Enjoy!

The next morning, we ate Owen's famous breakfast casserole and enjoyed a relaxing morning with family. I also had the opportunity to spend some time with this little lady. She may have a job in hair dressing?!?!

Ray enjoyed playing with the kids including catching ball and turning Olivia into a windmill and spinning her around the room.

 After an afternoon of fun, it was time to get ready for Rachel's pinning ceremony. Here are some pictures of the family and the pinning.

In honor of my brother-in-law's 36th birthday, we enjoyed red velvet cupcakes and relight candles with a side of blow horn from Ray.
...
Friday morning, we woke up and headed to Rachel's pool where we enjoyed an afternoon of fun in the sun. Then it was time to head back to the Zellner casa, fill a car with balloons, pick up a themed cake from Houston's own cake boss, and decorate for the party.

I love you this much!

We had an amazing weekend celebrating Nurse Rachel! It was a special time with family, celebrating Ryan's birthday, and spending time with our Alabama and Sugar Land families. We are truly blessed!
