Swimming, Sparklers, and S'Mores

This past weekend was full of lots of fun with friends and family! Saturday, Emma, Ethan, and I headed to the public pool where they have a small water park where we met Mrs. Leah, Kendall, and baby Arden. It has been in the 90s, so the kids enjoyed cooling off in the sprinklers while the moms hoped the exercise would bring long naps! Even Ethan had a great time chasing the girls around. Needless to say, the Dilley family will be making a lot of visits to the pool this summer - it looks like it is going to be another hot one this year!

Sunday, we enjoyed a great day of worship at our church, and Ethan got a much needed trim! He sat still and seemed to enjoy the process, so I am counting my blessings. Here are some pictures of our handsome man:

Crazy Hair!

Oh, that look!

Memorial Day was special because Chris had work off and we were able to spend the entire day together. We hit the mall and Target in the morning for a little sale shopping and Emma got an all-American tradition for lunch - a Happy Meal! After naps, we played outside the rest of the afternoon. Before bed, we got Emma nice and dirty by making her a s'more. She savored ever tiny little bite and made that thing last for at least 45 minutes. Finally, we finished the day off with one of mommy's favorite things to do - sparklers!

Mmmmm!

Happy Memorial Day!

Whether you spent Memorial Day doing lots of fun activities, spending time with family and friends, or both, I hope you took a moment to remember all of the men and women who gave their lives for our safety and freedom through the generations. I also feel indebted to all of those who currently serve and to their families who serve along with them on the home front - Thank You!
