90 Degrees!

Even though it’s still May, it was 90 degrees here today, so we enjoyed our first swim of the season in our backyard pool! We LOVE summer!!!

After the cold temperature of our big pool, we had to go in Ben’s hot tub for a few minutes to warm up… Grandpa really needs to get his working- We LOVE hot tubs, especially when they are bigger than 3 feet around!

Ben is still recovering from an ear infection and is pretty cranky these days, so Mommy knew he wasn’t ready for the big, cold pool. He sure loved his little pool though!

We loved it all so much, that we went in again after rest time!

Ben’s favorite thing was playing with his water table. He could play there for hours, and as a true boy, he wanted to figure out how each part worked.

Happy Memorial Day!

Well, our plans may have changed a bit this year for Memorial Day since we had an awful stomach bug tear through our house this weekend, but it didn’t keep us from a little backyard fun! We hope you all had a wonderful day!

Daddy’s graduation!

We are all so proud of our Daddy for graduating from his master’s program in business! He worked so hard, put in many hours, and he is one very smart Daddy! He even made it into the special business honor’s society! He has been a great example to us of what hard work and dedication can do, and I even got to go see him walk in his graduation ceremony last night! It was a little more boring than the “show” that I was expecting to see, but I was VERY excited when I found Daddy in the crowd and he found us! Way to go Daddy! We are so proud of you!

Mommy, Nannie & I played the name game to keep me occupied, and we found lots of cool names in the program… even Daddy’s!

Take a look at our handsome Dad… even if he had to wear a dress!

Mommy was very proud of all his hard work, and even got a little teary when they played “Pomp and Circumstance”… She’s going to be a basket case when I graduate some day!
