Memorial Day Weekend

For Chris's side of the family memorial day is pretty much one of the biggest holidays of the year. We all get together with most of his cousins and aunts and uncles and play games on Sunday. Most play games till late and then find somewhere to sleep at Chris's parents house. We all then wake up to a nice breakfast and prepare ourselves for the bbq that Papa Johns(My father in-law) will rotisserie up for us! It is always fun to get to see all of the family again and see all of their little kids grow! I must admit that our little wii has probably never gotten played so hard and long as it did this weekend! The kids loved it! It is a very fun little tradition and I know that Chris would not miss it for anything! Also on Memorial day I was able to sneak away and visit my little niece and nephew's grave! They had just gotten the headstone in so it was great to get to go see it! I am so glad they were able to be buried here so i can go visit them whenever i want! Then to top off our already busy weekend we decided to drive down to slc to i could see my family on Memorial Day too! Of course then eat more food there too! Pretty busy weekend but very fun!

Sounds like one crazy weekend! I'm glad you went to visit the babies. I bet they were happy to see their favorite Aunt Ally!

What a fun weekend! That's nice the babies are close to you. Isn't it nice to spend so much time with family on holidays?
