Then came May

Since Seth was done classes and exams by late April, we could now include him in our outings around the area to enjoy the warm weather and flowers. 

'Rustic apple pie' for church potluck dessert

Chocolate cake with chocolate chips before I added the frosting, also for church potluck.

We also joined up with some homeschooling friends to tour the McAdam Train Station in rural New Brunswick. Kate got a little antsy, but we still managed to keep up with the group tour and eat lunch with the group at the lunch counter. Trains still come through here so all the adults were on alert as the tracks surround the building front and back.

This beautiful begonia was a Mother's Day gift to me from my mother-in-law.

We attended Seth's university graduation ceremony along with my in-laws while Kate stayed with our friend Stacy since it would be a long time to sit for her. Seth was at the very end of the procession with his classmates in the Business program but at least we spotted him! This is the second graduation ceremony he's experienced after he completed his college program in 2023. It is quite special to be part of and experience with him and his classmates.

Seth needed a tie clip for under his grad gown, so I checked my grandfather's stash and found this one with his name (Harry) on it. My mom would have been thrilled to know Seth wore it for his graduation.

Celebrating with our church family!
