06/11/2008: "Memorial Day Weekend 2008"
I'm not ready to start with the tales of our Pennsylvania trip yet, but I wanted to share with you some of the details of our Memorial Day weekend, which seems so far ago now!
Our Memorial Day weekend was pretty jam-packed with activities.
First off, Heather had me do a little bit of landscaping on Saturday. I added some tall grasses to the front of the house.
Dylan and I took a walk/ride down to the Lake Michigan bluff observation deck at the end of our road. He played Chicken on his bicycle with me while I was walking, and the looks of concentration on his face were priceless.
While at the bluff, Dylan and I did a little bit of our normal exploring.
On Sunday, it was Katelyn’s turn to visit the bluff with me. She loves to walk with Daddy, and she loves to throw weeds and grass over the bluff.
Katelyn finished the afternoon with some chalk art while I was reading in the cool breezes. I helped her pick out the colors of the butterfly. The picture below is of Katelyn and Daddy . . . never mind it is not drawn to scale.
Finally, on Monday we took a little walk to a local playground for some soccer and monkey bar fun. The first two pictures of Dylan not only feature him kicking a soccer ball, but I’ve also captured his shoe flying off as well!
The kids race to the top of a rope tower. It almost looks too dangerous to have on a playground, but it’s totally fun. I’ve been up there myself.
And finally, Katelyn gets her turn to shine.
