Memorial Day Weekend

We had a great Memorial Day Weekend. We are very blessed to enjoy the freedoms that we have because of the sacrifices of many. 

We just spent a four day weekend at the lake. Fulton and I went up last Thursday night with Mom and Dad and enjoyed an extra day. As soon as daddy arrived Friday, we went out for a boat ride. 

And then these two were off to fish. We enjoyed the rest of the night 

just relaxing and being with the family. 

Saturday morning we decided to let mom open her birthday gifts so she could enjoy them. 

Her birthday isn't until Tuesday, but we did a little early celebration. 

She was sporting new sunglasses, a coverup and a new hat. 

Girls picture!

We had some friends arrive and headed down to the dock to enjoy the beautiful weather. 

The water was still too cold for me, but the boys didn't mind. 

And Fulton was excited because the Noble's brought their waverunners. 

We took a long boat ride and enjoyed the sunshine. 

Fulton doesn't venture too far from his Pop. 

Our little family. 

After lunch we did a little cake celebration. Sister and I made mom a strawberry 

cake and it was a hit. It's her favorite. 

Later that night it was time for our annual smores tradition. 

We started doing smores on Memorial Day weekend a few years ago and this little guy was looking forward to participating this year. 

Mom got all crazy and put Reeses PB cups on hers. 

He even roasted his own marshmallow. 

Kiki and Pete enjoyed it too!

Sunday we had some sweet friends come up and Fulton was excited to have a buddy his age. Elsie and Fulton play so well together and had the best time. 

Their family spent the night Sunday night and we enjoyed the company. We even went for a little sunset boat ride and enjoyed some rice krispie treats before bed. Why not?! Today we woke up to an overcast day with drizzle on and off. We headed home after lunch and were thankful for a great weekend.
