Memorial Day Weekend

I love a long weekend! Even better, starting a long weekend with a field trip to Legoland. Alyssa's class is winding down the school year (only two more weeks) and they were lucky enough to visit the Sea Life Aquarium and Legoland. I drove a few other moms and kids and we decided to stay the entire day. We opened and closed the park. The kids had such a great time and the moms had an even better time watching the kids run around like crazy.

What an amazing view from the Edwards' backyard

Sunday we celebrated Memorial Day with a bbq and swimming. Spending the day outside by the pool sure felt like a lazy summertime day. Jake is getting braver in the pool these days...or should I say the jacuzzi. That kid has very little interest in the pool. He seems to think swimming means turning on the jacuzzi and just moving about in his little domain. He's really into Toy Story right now and decided he was buzz light year. He would stand up and proclaim. "to infini and beon." For those of you who don't speak Jakey, that translates to infinity and beyond. The kids know bbq for the Serrano's and Getty's means late night fun! The kids let the parents enjoy the jacuzzi in the evening while they played in the sandbox, watched movies, ate snacks and ruled the house. What a fun Memorial Day weekend!
