Happy Memorial Day!



What a great weekend! The weather was beautiful and we enjoyed some quality family time. Friday we moved my sister to her new home in West Mankato. My parents were here for the day to help. We went to dinner after all the unloading and somewhat organizing! Of course my parents had all sorts of gifts for Noah and Isabella, as they always do when they visit!



Saturday we headed to the lake for my nephew Jack's birthday. As a gift to all my godchildren, I make their birthday cakes. This year Jack wanted a Curious George cake, which was a bit of a challenge. Nonetheless, I pulled it off and I think Jack loved it!

Noah caught his first "keepable" fish, a bass, out of the lake Saturday. Uncle Timmy took him fishing while we waited for the birthday party to start. The catch of this fish encouraged lots of the neighbors to put their poles in the water that day!

The rest of the weekend was full of lots of time in the swimming pool, boat rides, playing with the bunnies that Bop Pa brought up for a play date, and taking a 6 mile walk around the lake in the wagon (which was a little more than I bargained for!).

We enjoyed Memorial Day planting flowers and getting ready for the week. Isabella has one more day of preschool, Wednesday, and Noah is done with school on Thursday. We are ready for summer break, and I'm excited to be done ironing Noah's uniforms for the next 3 months!
