Memorial Day Weekend


8:15 a.m. Memorial day started out gloomy and rainy but that didn't stop the boys from getting the ribs into the smoker .


They sat out in the garage with their coffee and doughnuts all morning and watched this thing...man was it exciting....yawn....


Thankfully the weather cleared up in time for lunch! 


Trouble One and Trouble Two.


We headed down to the park in the afternoon and stopped by the lemonade stand on the corner. Those little ladies were making a killing that day! $45.00!!! Geesh, I should just quite my day job and start doing lemonade...



Phoebi has gotten a little chubby over the winter so we have been trying to get her out exercising as much as we can. She runs for a bit and then just plops down in the grass and refuses to move.


There is a bridge near the park that Sawyer and his friend Josh like to go to....mostly because Bill lets them climb up underneath it and jump off! 


Chillin' at the playground.


Josh giving Sawyer a lesson on pumping his legs on the swing.


Why yes, let's climb to the highest point on the playground a jump off. Whoooo-eeee, the apple does not fall far from the tree! :)


Side Note: If any of you are looking for a good umbrella stroller once your kiddo is out of their huge infant monstrosity one, I would HIGHLY recommend this one. It's the Joovy Groove Lightweight stroller and we LOVE it! Most umbrella strollers feel flimsy and you feel like you are pushing a doll buggy. But this one is super sturdy, light weight, has a huge sun shade, seat reclines all the way back, sippy cup holders that sit next to the child for them to reach and it's pretty decently priced! We wanted something that we could use day -to-day and would also do well on our trip to Brazil. I love it!!

Ok, I'm off the Joovy Groove plug. We had a great long weekend with friends and celebrating the freedom that so many men and women gave their lives for!
