Our Memorial Day

Once again I dont have many pictures of our Memorial Day Festivities, I just forget to get the camera out! We shared a fabulous meal with my family (sans Mary) at our house. Originally it was supposed to be at my parent's house, but we figured it would be much easier to do it here, and I am SO glad we did.

We set up the water slide for the first time this weekend, and the girls have been playing in it EVERY day! Kaylee, the daredevil, slides/jumps/flips down the slides, Ainslee, the reserved one, plays contently in the wading pool with 2 cups. It is so much fun watching them play and interact with each other.

Back to Memorial Day.....we had a HUGE meal, followed by the girls' first experience with S'mores. That is the reason I remembered to get the camera out!



Daddy helps Ainslee roast her first marshmallow

notice our redneck fire

Ainslee eats her first bite of S'more......she loved it, OBVIOUSLY!

Kaylee takes her first bite, and loved it too!


Mommy and Amma roast their mallows

Abba and Johnny couldnt resist, notice Kaylee helping out Abba




The plate of ingredients was gone in NO time!

Ainslee taking a bite from anyone willing to share


Amma and mommy stuff their faces!


And while no one was looking Ainslee got BACK into the water with her clothes on! Kaylee was not far behind her!




We had a fantastic weekend!

Happy Memorial Day to everyone!



PS: we have better photos and videos of the girls on the slide/pool but most of them contain nudity so I am unable to post them. Does anyone else have trouble keeping clothes on their children (Bethany dont answer that!)? Does anyone else's children ask to be naked ALL the time?
