The Reiserts.

When the 14yo unexpectedly pulls everyone in tight. 🤣😍

It was such an unexpected surprise to see this tree in bloom!

Michael was so adorable. He just giggled the time away which is not what I expected from a 6th grader!

Cousins!

😍 Pretty girls.

Molly helps our friend Brigid and I coach the 6th grade girl’s softball team. The whole game we spend telling each other what to yell to our own daughter because if it comes from us directly, we get a “MOM STOP!🙄” So we’ve out smarted them in order for the instruction to be received just fine, instead of with attitude like here when Molly was simply being funny. MOM STOP. 🤣

FORTY SIX wonderfully easy years together! Right???

Patrick graduated 8th grade last night! Onto high school!! Good luck, man!

Earlier to relax Patrick, I told him to play with the balls (flowers). Later, Michael said, I wanna play with the balls toooo!😆”

Not sure Molly expected Kailey to tower over her so quickly!!

Love it, guys!

I said, this is our last picture! Michael felt jazz hands were the most appropriate BIG FINISH for me. 😭 Perfect comedic timing.

Love these smiles! You guys look great, always so happy! Tess has the pleasure of bossing me around the cafeteria every week for school lunches! Summer is here, you get a break! WOOT for you, lady!

Well, I’ll see y’all at school and practice tomorrow. 🤣 You guys were so easy! Thanks for that! Heart, Melanie
