Memorial Day Weekend

This weekend we went up north to Nonna and Papa's for thier annual Memorial Day Weekend party. We had a great time helping get ready for the party and playing outside. Jack and Alex finally broke out the pool that Nonna bought FOREVER ago and were awesome helpers filling up tons of water balloons for the water balloon fight.








After our long drive home we spent Memorial Day morning with our neighborhood friends. We enjoyed some yummy food and the kids had fun playing soccer, digging in the sand, and climbing trees. Then we took the kids over to see our new house. They were so excited to see their rooms and play in their new yard!

Dancing, Dancing, Dancing!

On Mother's Day weekend we traveled down to southern Illinois to go to Jeremy's cousin Tara's wedding. I was fun to see some of Jeremy's extended family and the kids had a ball! They were dancing and playing all night long:) It was so cute to see them dancing with each other. Alex was so serious learning to do the Electric Slide. It was so adorable! We stayed in a hotel and Jack and Alex loved swimming in the pool and jumping on the beds with their cousins. We ended the weekend with a yummy Mother's Day breakfast at Cracker Barrel.

A Day at the Farm

The other weekend Marie (one of the girls that works in Jeremy's office) invited us out to her farm to visit the cows and calves that they have. The kids had a great time running around on the property and watching the cows. Jack loved petting the calf that Roger carried clear across the pasture for him to see. Alex however got quite shy and didn't want much to do with it other than watching! They also loved riding the four wheeler. Jeremy took them each for a ride:)
