Memorial Day Weekend= FUN in the SUN!!

What an awesome weekend! It was SO gorgeous outside and we enjoyed every minute of it:) Isaac had a fabulous time enjoying his first weekend spent outdoors and discovering all kinds of new stuff!

On SATURDAY we decided to just spend it all at home...and how nice it was to not have to worry about going anywhere for once:) We just did what we wanted to do around the house! Brock spent a lot of quality time with Isaac that day while I busied with the yard work to get it ready for its June open house. So I did the mowing, weeding, planting and mulching! Whew! It wore me out but all I wanted was to be outside and I got it:)

Here's what Brock and Isaac did....
He got a new Turtle Sandbox and toys for his 1st bday from Uncle Bub(aka Brock's bro, Brandon) and Aunt Brooke (thanks guys!) So he tried it out and LOVED it!

Here's the wonderful turtle sandbox..with not-so-dry sand in it! :/

Isaac checking it out and seeing what all this is about!...

Guess he didn't think it was all that great from the outside so he just sat right in it!

Getting plenty dirty!...Oh yeah! (He even managed to get a couple of taste tests of the sand...yuck!)

SUNDAY was such an awesome day! My best gal, Jess, came to visit! She is originally from Chicago and we met @ Purdue my Soph. year while working @ Texas Roadhouse...good times:) We spent an unforgettable spring break together with some of our girls and she was also in my wedding almost 3 years ago...and I get to be in hers in November!! SO excited for that! I can't say enough about Jess...she is so great and I'm SO glad she was able to come see Isaac again! She hadn't seen him since he was a newborn so it was cool! And she brought along her wonderful fiance, Mike who is also just wonderful!

So they came from Rochester that morning, where Mike is from, and joined us for church. Then we came back to our house and grilled out for lunch and just spent the afternoon enjoying each other's company. It was so relaxing:)

Jess, Isaac & me

After they had to leave we went on over to my parent's to spend time with that side of the fam. And the crazy Wogoman cousins always have a silly time together! Isaac experienced his first scrape

on his knee and big toe after having a spill in the driveway...ouch! It didn't even phase the kid though-he didn't even cry! Then they had a campfire and made s'mores:)

Here is Isaac laying down and my adorable nephew, Lincoln! This kid is SO funny! What a personality he has already!

All 4 of the kiddos getting ready for their baths and bedtime! (Isaac (1), Ky(1 1/2), Lincoln(7 mo.)& Brady(3)) And to think we'll be adding THREE more babies to this bunch in Sept. & Oct.! YIKES!!

MONDAY (Memorial Day) we started out going to the parade on Mainstreet. Brock's 2 brothers carried the flags for the VFW Post, so they started @ the beginning of the pack. They had to have been exhausted! They had to stay all serious and couldn't even wave or anything!

Here is the gang, Brooke and her new baby girl, Izzy...Brock's nephew, Cody and niece, Kaitlyn waving their flags!

And here's Isaac watching all of the loud firetrucks go by!

After the parade we spent the rest of the day @ Brock's parent's in the POOL! What a perfect day for it! It was Isaac's first time getting in this year and a lot more fun compared to last summer! At first he did not enjoy it so much! I had to carry him around quite a bit to get him used to it...

Then before we knew it he was loving it and Daddy was throwing him up and down in the water:)

He took him around on a noodle thing for a while and he just splashed around like crazy! It wore him out pretty good! But I'm so glad he started liking the pool to start the summer!

So the fun filled weekend is all over and ready to start up another week. Brock is finishing up school this week!! Yay! Only 4 more days for him! So that will be nice for him to wrap up another school year:)

Hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial weekend!!
