Memorial Weekend




For the long weekend we went to visit Grandma Brooks and Grandpa Mike. On Saturday, Faith, Josh, and Zach swam in the pool. Faith is our fish. She loves to swim. It reminds me of when I was her age and you couldn't get me out of the pool. Now you can't get me in unless it's close to 90 degrees! Josh and Zach spent some of their Saturday out in Grandma's garden. They have child size garden tools at Grandma's and they love to dig everything up and make a mess!

On Sunday, Grandpa took us all out in his boat. The boys were so excited about getting to go on a boat. They talked about it the entire week leading up to this weekend. As soon as we got to the lake, Zach wasn't so sure he wanted to go on the boat! But he did and he loved it. Poor Ben, had to wear a life jacket that's bigger than he is. As always, he was a trooper and didn't even shed a tear. When it came time to go in the tube, Josh wanted to go out with Grandma. She they had a great time getting pulled behind the boat on the tube. Zach wanted nothing to do with it, but I forced him to go with me thinking that he would enjoy it once he was out there. No such luck! He didn't like it, so I quickly swapped Zach for Josh. Grandpa pulled the tube very slowly for Josh and Zach, but Faith was a different story. It was so much fun watching her flop around on the tube and eventually get thrown off! We had a great weekend and I know Josh and Zach will want to go out to the lake another time this summer.
