Memorial Day 2011

This past weekend we had a great time!  On Friday, we went swimming with the Cox family.  The girls had fun and worked hard on their swimming skills (armed with major flotation devices of course).



Natalie refused to come out of the pool for lunch, she wanted to swim "a 'lil bit more mom"

On Monday we packed a picnic and went to Falcon Hill Park where they actually had a tire swing!  The girls loved that.  Then we went on a little hike up the hill.  We couldn't really find a trail so we just wandered up.  We didn't make it to the top since it was close to nap time.  


Here David is defining the word 'steep' for Cyrena since she was using it to exaggerate the climb.  

After naps we broke out the slip 'n slide and had a BBQ with the McKays.  Great food and great company.  What a way to kick off the summer.  

Earlier in the day we were talking to Cyrena about Memorial Day and what it means, why we have it, etc.  She talked about soldiers on 'our team' fighting for our freedom.  Then she talked about how lucky we are to be on 'Nephi's team' and fight for Jesus and Heavenly Father.  I love this girl.

In other news, the chore chart goes on strong.....

Life as we know it is full of laughter, fun, stress, love, faith and surprises. What more could we ask for?
