May 18th?

Already?
We've had Jim's birthday, our anniversary, a celebration at church last night and now it's Sunday afternoon and we're watching Frozen (surprise!). 
May is flying by. 
It's nice to have those days like today where there is the option of doing absolutely nothing. 

Last weekend Jim and I got to go to Camden Yards for a night game. 
Extra innings and a rain delay. 
Our kind of game.

Nate's school year is ending very soon.  We had a field trip on the steam engine that is situated here in Walkersville.   The train runs only a few times a week, so there aren't railroad crossing gates on the streets.  Everyone knows when the train runs and plans accordingly.  That's how you *know* you live in a small town.  Here is our Railroad Crossing Signal...

Nate and his neighborhood cronies.  They're ridiculously cute together.

Benjamin wasn't quite sure what to make of the train ride.

This was our view for much of the ride.  I do believe that cows  outnumber people in this part of Maryland.  Pretty amazing once you realize we're only 50 miles away from two of the busiest cities on the East Coast. 

Nate is totally hot for teacher.  ;)  He loves Miss Chris.
