Memorial Day Weekend 2012

It has been a busy weekend with family and friends.  Jason got to be home most of the weekend which was nice and we took advantage of spending some time together!  First let's start with Action Figure Movies!  Where have we been?  So last week Jas and I took up a quick date night and went to see Avengers.  Great movie by the way.  However we had not seen any of the "other" movies.  So since last Monday we have watched Iron Man, Iron Man II, Hulk, Captain America, and Thor!  We have been some busy movie watchers after little bit goes to bed!  I also talked him into fitting in The Vow.  Not happy with the ending by the way.  We did lots of swimming, eating, and fellowship!  It has been a great weekend. 

However, I will not go without saying that this weekend was great and all, but we must remember why we get to do all of these things with our families.  We get to fellowship because of the men and women who fight for our freedoms everyday. We pray for their families who wait for them tirelessly and for their safe return.  I am forever grateful for their sacrifice.  I am proud to be an American.  Happy Memorial Day.

 Mommy trying to change the sheets on the bed and daddy's idea of helping.......making Avery a fort with the sheets!  These two are a mess!  Oh well, we had fun!
 Avery at Lowe's on Saturday building her Ice Cream Truck piggy bank!
 Getting some pool time in!  She had to wait for mommy to get back from the doctor.......those darn hives will not leave me alone. 
 Special bath in the "big" tub!  She liked taking a bath in mommy and daddy's bathtub. 
 Saturday night we had dinner over at the Strickland's!  What great company.  The girls played, we had a wonderful dinner, and then the girls cried because they wanted to have a sleep over.  A little bit too young for that!  Too cute!
 Avery and Isabella, my cousin's little girl, eating Fruit Loops and laughing the day away!
 Avery and Jaden, Avery's new little friend, again laughing the day away!
 Love this picture.  She had just woke up and she looks like she is holding her hand across her heart!  So patriotic!
 Beautiful girl!
 Watching the air plane!
 Today Avery went swimming with Ella at Grandpa's house!  Two little hot rods!
 Little fishy!
 Avery trying out Ashley's goggles!  Silly girl!
Grandpa lives less than fifteen minutes from our house and this was Avery less than five minutes away from Grandpas!  She is one tired little toot!
