Memorial Day Weekend

The majority of our Memorial Day weekend was spent with family. We enjoyed a couple cookouts, did some garage sale'ing, walked to the farmers market, took in a few hours at the beach, and enjoyed the parade in Buchanan. On top of all this fun, Matt spend about 9 hour putting up trim in the basement. He's pushing to have that complete by July 4th.

    Back the fun stuff. Sunday was a beautifully warm, rather hot, day. So we joined the thousands of other beach go'ers at Warren Dunes. Grandpa Buddy, Jaja and Brody joined us. While the water was ice cold, the breeze made the beach quit enjoyable. And the kid had a blast. Hank couldn't believe the amounts of sand to play in.

 Our 'Little Mermaid'

 Monday's Memorial Day parade was a huge hit with each kid. All for different reasons. Eleanor loved it because she got to walk the route with her t-ball team and throw candy and wave at friends.

 Carolyn loved it because she got to catch the thrown candy. And her stash of 'sucker/candy' back home was near depletion.

 And Hank loved the parade because of all the tractors. He L-O-V-E, loves tractors. Loves playing with toy tractors, reading books about tractors, riding with daddy on the lawn tractor, spotting tractors in fields. He just can't get enough tractors.
 
 I love this picture of Hank! If you look at his lips you can see him saying "More tractor." Which he's saying over and over while signing "more" as all the tractors drive past.
