Memorial Day Weekend

Dinner Club at the Coopers!

Eating a "Memorial Day" cookie ...with RED icing!


Our little fish at the Water Park in Gainesville!

Trying to hold down a shooting fountain!

SO much fun!

Playing in the pool in Nunno and Poppa's backyard! That's a pool ring he put on his head!


BIG SPLASH POPPA! Throwing rocks in the creek!


Find a big rock for me Poppa!


We had a great Memorial Day weekend! Daddy was in Charlotte for the majority of the time but got home last night in time to tuck Jack in for bed! We were very happy to have him home! Jack and I spent Thursday night with the Coopers! It's always fun to see he and Caroline play together. Jack told me several times the next day, "Have fun with Caroline!"
Friday morning we headed to Gainesville to play with Poppa! We went to the park where Jack went for a long walk and saw several bridges. We also stopped for Poppa and Jack to play in the creek and throw lots of rocks in the water! The splashes were a hit! Jack had a great time! Then we headed to lunch for a hotdog! Nunno got home in time to help give Jack and bath and read books! Saturday, Jack got lots of good time with Nunno and they went for a walk! We all went to a water park that afternoon and Jack had so much fun! Gainesville has the neatest water park for kids!
Sunday we got up and headed back home! However, it was not without a stop by Scottish Rite to have Jack's bug bites checked out. Jack got bit by some mosquitos on Friday playing in the backyard. They really got swolen and were not better by Sunday morning. So, more for my peace of mind I think, I took him by Scottish Rite to have someone look at them. They seemed to be very big and I was worried they were going to get infected. BUT they looked fine and Jack took some Benadryl and they are SOOOO much better! Luckily, they didnt bother him very much! But they worried me!
Today we had a great day at home with Daddy! A big breakfast and lots of time building towers with Jack's new blocks! We headed back to the Coopers for a Dinner Club with friends and it was so much fun! It's always a good feeling to leave good friends after a fun time! Now, back to reality and the work week!
Check out our pictures!

Hi Katie,
The Splash Park looks like so much fun! We'll be in Gville in late July. Where is the park? My Caroline is going to LOVE it! I always enjoy reading your blog and seeing what ya'll are up to.
