Memorial Day Weekend

What a fun & busy Memorial Day weekend we had starting Friday evening and lasting till Monday evening! We took full advantage of the 3 day weekend and had a great time!!

Friday evening we headed out to the "beach house" in Gig Harbor to hang out with the Brannon clan.  Kattrina's in-laws have a beautiful home in Gig Harbor on the water with a small beach house down by the water. It is a great place to escape for a mini vacation or just to hang out for the evening.


Saturday we hung out at home for the morning, cleaned, did laundry and packed to head north. Then we headed to the mall for a bit before a birthday dinner for Kayla's friend. We were pretty excited to try out the new kid cart at Target. They are pretty fancy! Our Target will have a grocery section starting the 5th, pretty excited about this!! One stop shopping for sure! We went to Red Robin for a birthday dinner for Cordell, Kayla's friend before heading north for the rest of the weekend.






Sunday morning, we went to church at MCN. Celia left about 10 min into the service because Michael was not so happy in the nursery. I actually REALLY enjoyed sitting in service all by myself and it was a great message on marriage! (Gotta love big sisters who realize when you need a break and don't say anything, just do it! Thanks C!) After church, we headed out to Lake Connor to hang out with the Dexter/Wojahn/Hopper clans for the afternoon.  They all own a "campsite" in the campground which they have put trailers on.  The kids ran and played the entire day and we relaxed, chatted and hung out around the campfire all day. What a great time! Definitely being doing that more often this summer!





Monday started out with some sister shopping sans children! Gotta hit up those holiday sales. Didn't find any huge deals but still had a great time just being together and of course, shopping! (Again, so thankful for family that will watch my kids so I can have a break. Thanks mom!) The boys men were at Pat & Celia's building shelves in their garage to make way for the boat they just purchased. (Guess what we will be doing every weekend this summer?) We ended the day with a BBQ and fabulous spread of chicken, potatoes, potato salad, bread and fruit. Yum!!
