Memorial Day Weekend!

After soccer on Saturday morning, we hit the road to see Gran and Gramps for Memorial Day weekend!  We hit tons of traffic, but we made it in time for Landon to get a little snooze so we could head to the Gamber Fire Company's Carnival.  We went last year too and had so much fun...this year didn't disappoint!

We got there as it opened and chowed down on delish fair food!  Keith was like a kid in a candy store and was going to town...it was pretty hilarious.  Landon had his first taste of funnel cake and LOVED it, but that was no surprise!

They LOVED the roller coaster!


Great pic, but you can also see the lovely clouds rolling in...



Last ride because it was really raining by this point!

Keith and Reaggie went on the bumper cars and we went over to watch them, under the little cover, and Landon was CRACKING UP watching all the cars get bumped.  It was pretty much the cutest thing ever...he LOVED watching them!  ...and really wanted to go on them, BUT we had no more tickets, it was raining, and we HAD to go get some ice cream at Huffman's!  We did get to see a rainbow as we were leaving and Reagan was so excited because it was her first :)

Sunday morning was beautiful!  We went to Baugher's for breakfast, which both kids were so excited for.  Landon couldn't decide if he wanted pancakes or french toast and decided he would have "french pancakes."  Ha!  Cracked us up!  Reagan LOVES their toast with butter, go figure.  She says it's the best!  After breakfast we headed down to the playground for a bit...the kids love that swingset!


...and Gran :)

That afternoon my mom, John, and Jamie came for a cook out!


Reagan even tried a hamburger...big news for our non-ground beef eating girl :)  She "kind of" liked it...

Landon slept in a "big boy bed" at Gigi and Mop's.  They were so sweet and bought a twin blow up mattress for him, since he is just too big for the pack n' play anymore.  He did great in the bed, which is a good thing because we bought him his real big boy bed and it's sitting in the living room now...I am having serious denial that my baby is big enough to be out of the crib, but I guess it's time!

Monday morning we went to the Westminster Memorial Day parade and it was HOT!



Patriotic Cuties!!





It was a great parade and we were so thankful for all the veterans that were there...even a couple World War II vets!

We went back to Gran and Gramps' for lunch and then headed home for a cook out at our neighbor's house.  They had a bouncy house with water slides set up in their back yard and the kids had a BLAST!!  Keep in mind I told both kids to take a little nap on our way home, neither did, so they crashed last night!  It was so fun hanging out with our neighbors, we have some good ones :)  We're so thankful for that!!

It was a great weekend!  Thankful for this country and thankful for all of those that protect us!
