Memorial Day

I really enjoyed our nice long (very warm) weekend. We spent most of it at home, enjoying our backyard. We purchased a new, larger pool for our girlies to use this summer. The girls are super excited about the pool being in the shape of an alligator. I am excited that the girls and I all fit in the pool with plenty of room, and the alligator can act as a backrest for me. We were able to visit with both Uncle Danny and Uncle Travis this weekend (which was of course a special treat). Danny and Mindy had a wonderful cookout on Sunday afternoon/evening. We really had a great time (and I am anxiously awaiting to hear when I will become an aunt...hehe). Laney and Alie always love sleeping in the guest bedroom at Danny and Mindy's.

Travis and Nicole came to play on Monday. The girls brought them down to the playground and pretended to serve them a variety of different imaginary ice cream shop treats. The girls had a blast...even if everyone else was melting from the heat and humidity. Later, we convinced the girlies to come home and take a dip in the backyard to cool off before the thunderstorms hit.
