Happy Memorial Day

We spent Memorial Day cleaning out closets and the toy room!  We did have a few hours to spend outside playing too!

Reagan remembers how to ride her bike!  It's been a while

 Cooper drew all over the driveway!

 He got warm and had to take off his shirt...and show off his muscles!

 Reagan found and trapped a Velvet Ant

it's actually a "wingless wasp"

 she's reading all about it on the internet

 We played bubble ninja too!

Weekend Cook-Out

We had planned to start our Memorial Day weekend with a cook out and boat ride, but the rain altered our plans just a little.  We still had a cook out and ice cream, but will have to wait for another day to go out on the boat!

Memorial Day Movie Monday

We had a low-key Memorial Day holiday.  We surprised the kids by taking them to see the movie Epic.  It is so sweet to hear them giggle throughout a movie.  We spoiled them with popcorn, pretzels & a freeze frame icee~each.  They had so much fun.  After the movie, we ran a few errands and then had a mini cookout at home!

 

Memorial Day Sunday Cookout

After we got home from camping ~ we showered, took naps and then went to Gigi & Bubba's for a cookout and boat ride.
