Remembering

Memorial Day weekend brought about lots of activities for us! Typically we've always celebrated Memorial Day with a BIG backyard BBQ. In fact, this was the first year in 6 that we DIDN'T host our traditional event. I think time slipped away in the planning stages and we just got too darn busy. I hope we can bring it back next year!

We DID, however, get to go to the downtown parade this year. It was lots of fun seeing all the floats and people parading around. Of course, I always get teary during these things. I'd like to blame it on the pregnancy hormones, so that's what we'll do. Here's a few shots of us at the parade.

This shot sure makes me feel HUGE! That belly of mine is getting pretty big at just over 25 weeks! Phew, it's gonna be a long, hot summer!



After the parade, we headed to our pool and did some splashing around.

 Ethan LOVES to jump! Could do it over and over again! I think he'll be ready to go once swim lessons start in a few weeks!

Ava is becoming very good at swimming! 2 summers of lessons and she's feeling confident in her skills. As the summer goes she'll probably be swimming laps! Way to go!!

It was ALSO Mike's birthday yesterday! Told ya it was a busy day for us! We went to Kobe's for his celebratory dinner! Yummmmm!
