Flashback to May...

OK, so we mentioned that we would do some flash backs to get everyone up to date on the happenings in the lives of the Mraz's this year. You have seen what we have been up to in June...so back to May. Well, the middle of May we made the big trek with Tanner's belongings back to Memphis. He had already gone back to get things going. Most of you know that Tanner lived with us for almost a year...something about a little blonde girl just kept drawing him back to Memphis. So, one moving truck and one long drive later Tanner's has his stuff back in Memphis. During this just fast trip to Memphis there was some furniture building that took place...


Then there was some watching Courtney play softball...












There was some fellowship and friendship and of course food...




Courtney really liked the cookie bars...thanks to Debbie for the receipe!!






And let us not forget the finished product...Tanner's apartment. I believe it turned out very nice and we hope that Tanner will be very happy there!!







Tanner has worked very hard over the last year to get himself where he is and we are so very proud of him. We wish him a great future and we know that the Lord has richly blessed him.












...Continuing on the journey through May...we traveled to South Carolina to see Jenny and Brandon for the Memorial Day weekend. Again we had a great time (Jerry and I have been blessed with some pretty wonderful kids). We went to the Zoo in Columbia. It was great, we saw cool animals, fed a few and had a really good time...






We went to a place called Charles Town Landing. It was really neat, we walked around and looked at the animals. We saw turkeys, they had their feathers all up and were making this cool druming sound. Then we went over and walked on the historic walk, it was really neat also. While we were there Brandon showed us how to find Doodle Bugs (If you look on Jenny's page you can see what one looks like).





We also went to Charleston. We walked around this art festival that was really cool. We ate lunch at Sticky Fingers (our most favorite place in SC to eat ribs) and we had ice cream.


So, after all that we jumped back into the car and headed back to Washington. First, we had to rest for a while and work some too. Then we had to start preparing for the big adventure to Tennessee. We had one other big adventure this year, that took place in April, so that will be the next "flashback" but that will have to be for another day!! Stay tuned....
