I thought that we would celebrate memorial day by doing something memorialish - so we went to the Rock Island Arsenal and the national cemetery. There was a Celebration there with gun solute and all. The cemetery reminds me of Arlington. There are headstones everywhere, all with Flags on them. It was a great time and the weather was actually nice all day. Little K had a first - It was her first time in grass. She was a little unsure and wanted to be picked up immediately, but after a little bit she started to like it and of course ate a few blades.
We then went to a good friends house for a BBQ. We blew up this little pool for the kids and it was a BLAST. Little K and her buddy Calvin were just loving it! The food was great, the company was wonderful and the weather nice (though humid- it will take some getting use to).
Overall I would rate it a 10! Fun Memorial day!

You thought Monday was humid...just wait until about July!
You will not want to leave your air conditioned house.
That is fun that you guys did something, "memorialish." we just skiped that part and went straight to the BBQ.
Little K, is so, so cute!
It looks like you guys had a great time. I am sure K loved the pool, I bet you guys were ready to get in too. I don't know that I would do real well with the humidity either. How's teh house going? Have you gotten to relax at all yet?
