Memorial Day Weekend!

So for Memorial Day Weekend, I ended up down in AF helping my mom recover from surgery. Brad decided to take the kids to his moms for the weekend and get some extra help, since he would have the kids all alone for the whole weekend. They celebrated in good fashion even without me. Ever since Brad and I have been married we have always gone and done flowers at the graves with his parents, so that is exactly what they did on Saturday. This has got to be one of my favorite memories as a child and I hope my children have similar memories. It was especially fun because this year they got to do it all with some of their cousins. The girls favorite part has got to be watering all the flowers. They also enjoy seeing all the pinwheels. This year afterwords Kaitlyn had a ton of questions about death. Some of her questions were, "mom, do we go wet and mess when were dead?" "How come babies die?" (I am thinking the reason for this question is because we always walk through the baby part of the cemetery to get from Sharilyn's parents graves to Ross' grave.) She has been full of questions a lot lately. After the cemetery they headed to the park for a picnic lunch. I think that the whale springy thing was the biggest hit there.
