We didn't have any big plans to go anywhere for Memorial Day weekend, and the weather was looking pretty rainy for most of it. Sunday afternoon the rain let off just in time to have Katie's family over and the family of one of Eric's college buddies.
It turned into the most wild series of events that kept everyone entertained! I can't even remember all of it, but it included one the little boy falling into the water, a toilet overflowing upstairs, which lead to water streaming into the downstairs foyer, someone else peeing his pants, and fish biting left and right - we have never caught so many fish in such a short time! It was truly one of the most exciting nights we can remember and we all had SUCH a fun time. Bonnie stayed up until 9 o'clock that night and loved every minute of it.
On Memorial Day, we went to Glendale National Cemetery in the morning. It was a beautiful hidden little cemetery near Richmond. There were a lot of soldiers that died during the Vietnam war.
Whenever we would read out a name, B would blow him or her a kiss. It was very sweet.
Later that afternoon we went to the neighborhood beach. Lots of people were grilling and swimming.
Bonnie was in doggy heaven.
After a busy weekend we came home, Eric grilled and we had dinner out on the back deck.
It was a wonderful weekend. We are so humbly grateful for those who gave their lives for our country so that we can live the way we do.
Happy Memorial Day!
