Adam is on the Board

The Roscoe/Rockton Lions Board was chosen Adam to serve on its Board of Directors for the 2009 Season! He was interviewed this past Tuesday at FIBS (a local restaurant) and must have dazzled them with his brilliance because they made their decision that same evening.

I am not sure how many other parents applied for the two open positions but Adam feels like there were quite a few others interested.

We feel very honored to be a part of this organization. Everyone is treated with respect and there is such a love for the game of football. His first meeting is in February, as they begin preparations for this year's season!

Zeke Turns 9!

Happy Birthday Zeke! His birthday was on Monday, the 19th but we did most of the celebrating on Sunday because Adam was home.

Here is Zeke with his gifts:

On his actual birthday, we found a hill in Rockford to try out the inflatable sled:


In this one, you can't see them very well but you can hear their screams easily!


And a fun time was had by all!

Holiday Happiness

I apologize for the lack of updates. One part busyness and 3 parts laziness have kept me from my Blogging duty.

Christmas Eve and Day were pretty quiet in the May household, as weather prohibited any family travel. We DID get to video conference with Dad however. He got to watch the kids open their gifts, which was cool. God bless the web cam!

Mona, John & Jennifer came the weekend after Christmas and stayed for a couple of days. Everyone participated in Gingerbread Construction and it sure looked festive when finished!





Mom & Johanna bravely drove through treacherous weather to arrive shortly after Christmas. Jaime & Justin came shortly after and we all celebrated New Year's together, along with a few of our local friends.

Holiday Stuff


We went out to a Japanese restaurant, a Rockford Ice Hogs game (AHL), Chicago style pizza at Giordano's and we played a good amount of Rayman Raving Rabbids 3. A fun time was had by all. And now back to the daily grind...
