Memorial Day

Memorial Day was a fun day for us. We took the boys (well mainly Parker) to see Kung Fu Panda 2 (amazing by the way!) and then headed over to our friend's house for a BBQ. They had invited several families from our ward and all the kids played outside and we all just sat around and talked and ate. It was nice and relaxing. After most of the group left everyone that was left decided to go swimming, and Parker had a blast! While we were in Texas we bought him a life jacket so it would be easier to take both boys swimming by myself. He has gotten used to it pretty quickly and can now kick around the pool like a pro!

Parker LOVED this bike and did not want to share for the life of him...luckily for the most part all the other kids were busy playing with other stuff so it wasn't a huge problem. I think we may have to get him a bike of his own for his birthday!Tyler even loved the bike and wanted a turn as soon as he saw his big brother riding it.Tyler only mildly enjoyed the pool. It was starting to get a little cold out and he really isn't a huge fan of his floaty thing so he only lasted about 5 minutes before getting out.Jumping off the ladder was another favorite activity of Parker's.Riding around on daddy's back:This was Parker's favorite game, getting thrown back and forth across the pool!Because the movie was right during nap time and the BBQ was immediately after, the boys didn't get a nap and they were sure exhausted! When we got home that night we laid them down to get them ready for bed and they both rolled over with their blankets and were out in less than a minute! It was too funny! I love the fact that Tyler not only has his blanket but he has a hold on Parker's as well.

It was a fun day and we are glad that we have made such good friends to hang out with! Happy Memorial Day!!!!
