Memorial weekend was the perfect summer kickoff for us. Not only did we have the opportunity to teach Grady about the real reason for the holiday, the weather was absolutely perfect to partake in some of our favorite summer activities.
Summer = evening family walks!
Summer = back yard fires, roasted little weenies, and a sticky marshmallow mess. I swear the boys pretty much ate only marshmallows for dinner, parent of the year right here folks!
Summer = waking up to hot air balloons at least a couple times a week and going on the chase through our neighborhood in our PJs.
While Graham napped, I took Grady to see the flag memorial set up at our local park and use it is an opportunity to talk about what Memorial Day really means. I love that our park gives us an opportunity to remember the true meaning of Memorial Day.
Summer = playtime at the park and the first snowcone of the year.
Summer = swimming.
We were so happy that it was hot enough to get our first swim in - hooray for summer swimming!
Summer = Summer shoes! We were obsessed with Natives this year. If you have kids, you should probably have these shoes.
(lots more summer adventures to come, even though it is officially November!)
