Did you all have a nice Memorial Day weekend?

We sure did – thanks to some beautiful summer like weather!

To add to that – my people, except Chad, had the weekend off of work!

You all know I love when everyone is home!

We did have some rain on Saturday afternoon, but the rest of the weekend was gorgeous!

Perfect weather to work outside and finish setting up the pool!

The guys finished the foundation and set it up on Sunday, started filling it with the hose, and then finished the rock around the outside of the pool on Monday.

It turned out great!

Tate was quick to measure himself once the pool was up, hoping he would be able to stand up in it this year.

Maybe next year, buddy!

Lane blew up all of the floats, including this giant turtle.

I think it will be used a lot this year!

Sunday Addie Mae and I ran to a green house to get a few more plants.

Isn’t it beautiful there?

Our favorites came over Sunday evening and we had a camp fire and ate outside!

We had the BEST evening together!!!

Monday was another beautiful day!

We got more work on the yard done and spent the day outside.

The kiddos had a great summer day!

Helping with the work, but playing too!

Addie and I took them for a bike ride and then we came home sweaty and hot and made chunky monkey smoothies.

Chad jumped right in when he got home from work.

The guys leveled off the area under the deck, and we will be putting weed barrier paper and river rock there now.

Our weekend was full of good eating, as usual, too!

Grant got a new smoker and has been smoking all kinds of good things!

Our pups enjoyed being outside too.

This is pretty much how we all felt after a long weekend spent outside!

It did our hearts GOOD to have some summer like weather and to be all together for a couple of days!

Looking forward to many more summer days, Lord willing, spent here at Twin Oaks with my crew!

Hope you all had a great Memorial Day weekend too!

So thankful for ALL who have served for our country and our freedom!!
