It was a great weekend for us. On Sunday we started the celebrations by picking up Great Grandma Miles and driving to Orem for dinner and games. We had shishkabobs that were so yummy. Baka did a great job at the grill and Maka always does a great job with the dinner so we were all full and happy! The kid table was sparse and we missed all the cousins!!
After dinner Maka got out a game and the kids started playing it. Dave and Baka laughed at how "easy it was" but the kids were not able to do it. Then they stepped up and quickly realized that it was not as easy as it looked. Then the competition began, who was the biggest looser!
After that game the boys and Baka moved on to a friendly game of basketball. They played until it was 9pm. When they were called in, Baka came in bleeding and scraped up. Maka was worried, but Baka will pull through. I told him to take Advil and a hot bath, we were not sure he was going to be able to get out of bed the next day. But the boys had a lot of fun playing with Baka and will always have that memory with them. Fitting for memorial day right?
After dinner the rain stopped for a momment and the kids went outside to play basketball. Grandpa supervised the game and helped the little ones. It was another great memory for my kids. I am grateful for such great grandparents in my kids lives. They make the world a better place.

We went to Grandma and Grandpa B's house and ate yummy pizza, chicken nuggets, salad, fruit, pie, and smores. I think I gained about 10lbs in one day! The winner for the most creative meal goes to little E who was dipping his banana in ranch dressing...Iwonder if he is supposed to be mine?

We ended up having 2 hours of kill time before the movie started and we hit the Layton Hills Mall to walk around and explore. Hayden was facinated with this thing we called "mall". He has never been in one, wow what a girl I am. But we had fun looking at the Sports stores. The movie was great we all loved it. It got out at 9pm and we were really tired by the time we got home. We had a fantastic Memorial Day and look forward to summer when we can do things like this more often!
