1. The Royal Wedding I had been anticipating for so long finally took place. I got up early and watched coverage all day long. It didn't disappoint! Kate was a beautiful bride!!!
2. My mom, Kristie, and cousin Emily came to visit last Saturday. We had a girls night, then Sunday had a full day of events planned before we went to see Legally Blonde at Assembly Hall. Well, we ate lunch, got pedicures, ate frozen yogurt and then went to the mall to meet my cousin Shelby and Aunt Carol. After shopping for awhile, we were waiting for Carol to pay outside of Forever 21 when a sea of people started running at us and screaming that there was a man with a gun. I have never been so scared in my life, seeing all the people who looked so scared and not knowing where this guy with a gun was. We all just ran...Kristie, my mom, and I to the back of Forever 21 and out the employee exit, Emily and Shelby to Gap (they were trapped in the back room there for about an hour), and Carol got stuck in Forever 21 before the shut the back exit. After the police cleared the mall and released people, we got as far away from the mall as we could. After seeing the news, we found out that it was in relations to gang members from Milwauke coming down to Champaign because they were after some guy because a drug deal went wrong. The victim was shot at multiple times and the gunman was shot by a police officer. It was such a scary experience that I hope I never have to be involved with again.
3. Gwen and I went on a mother/daughter trip to Tucson. We got there late Wednesday night and came back yesterday. She was soooooo good on the flights and LOVED swimming. Her cousins were so nice to her and she had fun playing with some of their big kid toys. We really had fun spending time with the Roleys and enjoying the summer weather! 
Great start to May! Summer is so close!
