fun in 4 days
Some favorites from an extended weekend:-garage sales with my mother-in-law that included great finds of cute red slip-ons and never-worn baby GAP clothes, not to mention lots of fun time spent with a great lady
-dinner with a sister-in-law and a tour of her new house (as of July 15th!)
-time well spent with my big sister and cousins, who are rarely seen, at a lovely bridal shower
-surprising another sister-in-law with company, presents, and food for her birthday
-hugging, kissing, and squeezing my 12mo. old niece and having her recognize her "aunt heather"
- a date with my husband to a drive-in movie
- a hike in cranberry lake with my favorite person (my husband)
-bbq-ing with friends
-hearing Lael tell R.Jay and I what memorial day is
-riding on the back of husband's motorcycle to said bbq - fun, but aching later
-driving past cementarys filled with flags, flowers, and people and being thankful for what has liberated me to do all the above

The kids have adjusted fairly well to the motorcycles... Jackson has the advantage of sleeping to the sound of them his whole life. :) But it is still irritating--especially since the speed limit is supposedly 30mph, and I know they drive faster than that!
As far as free days go, I'll be here all day Fri and Sat while Daniel works on our driveway project (in other words: I could use company!). Next week, I don't have much slated so far other than my usual errands on Tuesday, followed by dinner at my family's that eve. If there's a day that works well for you, I can keep it available.
It would be great to see you!-

Sounds like you had a fantastic weekend! :) We mostly stayed at home and enjoyed our little family! I'm SO thankful my husband was home this Memorial day and not deployed again!
Miss you!
