Memorial Day Weekend

We gathered the family together at GG and Papa's house to celebrate Memorial Day yesterday afternoon. We had a fun afternoon of fishing, a fish fry and lots of silly cousin fun.

After we ate dinner, we went back down to the water to do more fishing. We really didn't catch much all day, but that wasn't really the point. We were just enjoying being out together. Kristen and Grandma Mal were also with us yesterday but they didn't manage to get in any pictures!

Since we got together on Sunday, our actual Memorial Day will be pretty relaxed today. We may join Aunt Katy at the pool later today, but that's all we really have planned. I'm looking forward to a restful day before Jonathan goes back to work tomorrow. Hope everyone else has a relaxing Memorial day too!
