May 2 - All the years that we've been members of the Living Desert, we've never hiked the Eisenhower Trail. So Michele and I decided to finally go check it out before they closed the trail for the summer when it's too hot. The Wilderness Loop is 3.5 miles (5 miles from the parking lot). This view is about a mile up from the canyon's entrance looking back at the direction we came from.
It was a very nice hike. This picnic bench is at the half-way point, elevation 1000 ft.
May 9 - No, I didn't get the breakfast in bed (or even a card) that I wanted for Mother's Day. But that's okay. Maybe next year Devin will get the hint. I was happy enough to enjoy a beautiful, lazy Sunday with my husband and little girl!
Various dates - Just some misc. pictures of Kayla being cute.
May 18 - Happy 35th Birthday to me! We went to Harry's BBQ and had ribs again. We used the money we both got for our birthdays from my family, plus we had a coupon for buy one get one free!
Then we came home and had cake. Yay!
May 19 - The ice cream truck drives down our street EVERY night! We don't normally buy ice cream, we just like to watch him go by. But this happened to be Kayla's lucky day! I was inside washing dishes while Devin was outside with Kayla and our neighbor got it for her. 
May 22 - Another Saturday morning at the park with Connor.
Some ducks walked through the playground and Kayla and Connor immediately started chasing them!
Awh, look at that cute face! After the park, she came home and snacked on some yogurt. As you can see, she's still not very good with her utensils yet.
May 23 - Kayla LOVES to watch and dance to Yo Gabba Gabba!
May 29 - Kayla hasn't played outside much lately so she was excited to find her favorite pet rock!
A doggie, a ball, and a rock-what more could a kid want?
May 30 - Since it was Memorial Day weekend, Michele and I hiked up to the top of the Bump and Grind trail at 5:15am to sprinkle some of Pookie's and Zoey's ashes. We used to hike there alot with the dogs so we had alot of good memories to reminisce on the way up. We found a nice spot off the trail and made rock piles and sprinkled their ashes on top.
By noon we were at Mike and Christian's pool party. This was Kayla's first time in a swimming pool! But she loves the bathtub so I knew she wouldn't be afraid of the water.
She didn't care much for the arm floaties, but she loved riding around the pool in her penguin float!
Taking a break to eat a turkey burger. Yummy!
Okay, all rested and ready to go swimming again.
And of course, CAKE! Happy 36th Birthday Devin!
