Mayday!

Mayday! Mayday! Could you hear us yelling this mid-May after we almost drowned? This April was the wettest April on record here in England and the rain continued for the first half of May. A student was literally kayaking across the cricket field at Riley's school! And then, suddenly, in mid-May it turned GORGEOUS. Like 80 degree gorgeous! Unheard of here! The past two weeks have brought much appreciated sunshine, complete with adorable declarations by Lyla of "Mommy, it's not raining again!"

And so, rain or shine, May was full of days spent enjoying Spring!

Nice shades!
