Memorial Day


Dearest Miracles~

Happy Memorial Day!  Today we honor and remember all who fought and died for our country and our freedom.  You two have a lot of military personnel on my side of the family .... and they represent all the branches of the armed forces. 

This morning you two helped us clean the house.  We also had to prepare some of the food for our lunch cookout.  Then, we had some playtime upstairs.  We read and had some music time before people started to come over for a visit.

At lunch, everyone came to our house for the cookout.  We saw Gigi, Grandpa Jim, Uncle James, Aunt Katie, Uncle Brennan, Mimi, and Grandpa Mike.  There was lots of good food too!  We had corn on the cob, hamburgers, hotdogs, potato salad, cole slaw, beans, squash, tuna salad, chili, cookies, and brownies.  I doubted if I'd even eat dinner.  ;-)

Grandpa Mike was back from his work trip to Asia and brought you all back some teddy bears.  Then, we walked up to the park with Grandpa Jim and Uncle James.  You two had fun on the swings, but we didn't stay long since it was such a hot day.  

Once we got back home, people were leaving, so we went upstairs and had a family nap time!  ;-)  That was much appreciated.  We played on the porch this evening as it got cooler and then you two both had a bath. 

Sleep tight little ones!

I love you both so much!
