Memorial Day 2009

Here's what we learned on Memorial Day...

careful how tight you hug your cousin- he'll hug you back twice as hard...

pools need water, too....

negotiating who gets chalk-traced is never an easy discussion....

Mae loooves apple sauce (not the pool so much)...

Baby Oba likes when his pal Mae talks to him- she can't wait to play...

....and that handing over a delicious chocolate cake to the man across the street to thank him for his service is the least we can do....Happy Memorial Day everyone, and thanks to all who have served.

Spring has Sprung!

Hear ye! Hear ye! Spring is here!

There are dandilions to blow around...

pink Marigolds to plant...

and tree petals to shake off! Bring on Spring!
