Memorial Day Weekend

Well, we had a very fun time over the holiday weekend with my visiting family! The boys really enjoyed hanging out with their cousins. Although, poor little Evan risked getting a crick in his neck looking up at his over 6 foot cousin Jordan! Once he got down on the floor though, it was ok!

Here are some pictures documenting the weekend:


Evan made his rounds with the electronics. First with cousin Jared's video game (no idea what the apparatus is), then with Jordan's cell phone - which he played with most of the weekend.




Tyler, surprisingly enough, preferred to play with Jared's ROTC dog tags (and his hat)...


Good sports, those cousins!!!

When Tyler woke up from his Saturday morning nap, everyone had arrived for brunch. He was still sleepy, and feeling a little shy, so mommy got some extremely rare snuggle time!


This NEVER happens. Daddy must have been out of the house at that moment! :)

On Saturday afternoon, all the men/boys - except for little Evan - headed to a water park.


Shield your eyes!!!

This boy's whiter than I am!! :)


Jordan floating.....

and chillin' poolside with studly Uncle Doug....

And here's Tyler doing his thing:

Whilst the men/boys were partaking in water sports, Mimi, Aunt Doake (Kathie), me, and Evan hit the mall. On the way home, Evan appropriated Aunt Doake's sunglasses:

He was quite enamored with them, and didn't want to take them off! So Mimi decided the boys needed their own sunglasses. Here are some shots of them modeling their "Hot Wheels" themed shades:

Cool dudes!!!!

On Saturday evening, Uncle Andy grilled up some burgers and we spent some time on the deck.

Here's Tyler and Evan sharing a chair, and a cupcake:

Mmmmmmm............. chocolate..........

Some other random shots from the weekend:

a nice pic of Jared (who was either playing a video game or texting his girlfriend at the time):

the men cleaning up after one of the big brunches/breakfasts:

and Evan relaxing on the deck:

Hmmm... I have no pictures of Mimi from the weekend! I know she won't mind, but it doesn't seem right.

A good time was had by all. The weather held, so we were able to enjoy the outdoors, though it may have been a teensy bit hot for the Vermonters :)! We really enjoyed having everyone visit and look forward to doing it again.

Thanks to Andy and Mimi for sharing their photos!!!
