Memorial Day Fun

Jacob with Sara, Emma waving, Maia and Aiden with Gracie in the front.

We had a fun family Memorial Day. Brent and his family were the strong ones who went to Mom's grave. They said that it looked nice with lots of flowers. Our cute Dad makes sure that the grave area always looks great . . . I still can't make it there . . . but I'm glad that it's well taken care of. What I can do is plan food and fun together. We ventured up to Big Cottonwood canyon for a picnic dinner. It's so fun to see the kids playing and loving to be together. We have fun memories of similar canyon adventures when we were little. Who knew how much fun dirt, sticks, rocks and water can be.

This marshmallow face Maggie is funny since she hates being dirty and always likes to be clean. Shortly after the wipes came out and she was all better.

Grace is in her element as a little monkey in the trees . . . she is a great climber.
