Memorable Memorial Day Weekend

There was a lot packed in to this past weekend. Although the boys did not end up playing soccer as we originally thought they'd be doing, we took in the wonderful weather with lots of family fun. The boys played their own soccer game...boys vs. men...quite the workout, challenge and laughs :)

In the afternoon, we all went to see Night at the Museum 2 and then had a sundae fest even though it was only Saturday! We dodged the rain well on Sunday heading to the zoo. That was a fun time also...reminiscing as the kids have really grown up there...all the way back to when I was pregnant with Eric...10 yrs ago, oh my!

We headed to Station Sqaure for an afternoon dinner at Buca Di Beppo (try saying that three times fast) for lots of yummy Italian food. We checked out the new marina overlook (actually Jon ran up the stairs trying to get away what he thought was our kid(s) but turned out to be some other kid...that was quite funny) and took in a mini TV show themed water show before heading home.

Today, the boys went bike riding in the morning while I took the dogs around the circle for a walk. In the afternoon, Grandpa and Eric went to see the Star Trek movie while Grandma, Jesse, Jon and I played a round of mini golf. We only lost one ball (we think Jesse hit it into the creek) which was good and fun too.

It was nice to be together with family this long, beautiful weekend. Jon also baked, grilled and rotisseried for us all...on his new grill. The guys also rented a power tool to drill holes for a "real" fence project that has officially begun. It seems like summer has ARRIVED! Yeah :)
