Memorial Day Weekend

Tuesday, May 29, 2012

Busy weekend and lots of fun. Friday was Sophie's last day of preschool. So sad to leave Parkview and Mrs.Winstead. We had a such a wonderful experience this year. I headed to Chicago on Saturday with some girlfriends. Lots of laughs and shopping. Sunday was super hot so we headed to the pool. I thought Jake would love it but not so much. The water was still pretty cold so I'm hoping that was the problem. He was warming up to the whole pool thing when it was time to go. Monday we stopped by our new neighborhood for a neighborhood party. Lots of kids which is great for Sophie.

Couple of videos...

Pool day.

Sophie was there for about 4 hours.

Dinner at Monica's.

Ice Cream with Grandma and Grandpa.

Mother's Day was pretty low key. A walk in the morning, lunch at Grandma Linda's, dinner at Red's and a little grocery shopping.

Mike got to sit with Sophie at the kids table.

Look at Jakers walking on grass.

There was a hot air balloon right about our vacation house. Mike was actually talking to the guy it was so close.

They started framing the basement yesterday... can't wait to see the progress they make today. Sophie had her last share day at preschool yesterday. Tomorrow is her Spring concert and in a couple weeks graduation.  Last night she told me she was just exhausted from all the preschool and soccer. Tough life!
