Memorial Day Weekend 2011

We had a family-fun weekend ... we always enjoy a 3-day weekend & having an extra day with Daddy at home. We are very thankful for the opportunity to celebrate Memorial Day ... to live in a free country ... for all the men & women, who are husbands, wives, Daddys, Mommys, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, who have fought for our freedom and fight for us to stay a free country ... their sacrifice is huge, and we cannot thank them enough!

My sister Estee "Auntie E" and brother-in-law Taris "Uncle T" (who is an Air Force pilot) came to stay with us over the weekend. They were coming back from their exciting trip to Japan and stopped here for a few days before heading to Abilene to visit more family. (They are being transferred to Hawaii in a couple of months, so it will be a while until we get to see them again ... well, until Kendall sees them again ... since Ash & I are going to Hawaii this October to celebrate our 10 year anniversary ... but that's another post!)

We had a great time with them here Friday-Sunday ... hearing about all their travels, viewing all their pictures, going shopping, staying up way to late talking & laughing ... that's what sisters do! We enjoyed our time together but didn't take any pictures until Sunday after church. I love Kendall's red, white & blue dress ... her Auntie E gave it to her at Christmas time and I think she looks so cute in it.



 

Sunday afternoon we went to Ash's cousin Lane & Barbara's home for a Memorial Day party ... and it was fun to be with Ash's family.



Daddy & Kendall, Ashleigh and Audrey
The girls had fun in & out of the pool ... sidewalk chalk is always a hit with Kendall!



Rylie & Kendall ... 2nd cousins ... Rylie is 4 months than Kendall. 
They had a great time playing with the chalk together.


Happy Memorial Day!
