Memorial Day Weekend

We spent the long holiday weekend visiting family "up north". It was a smooth trip, fueled by many snacks and Culver's food (and frozen custard!), entertained by more than one episode of Magic School Bus, and with soundtrack provided by Cities 97 (for the few hours we could take a break from DVDs).

We took advantage of the pleasant weather to explore a new play ground and "help" Grammy with her garden. We also got our money's worth at an all-you-can-eat waffle breakfast, and logged many hours of playing with Grampy.

Ice cream in the car was quickly followed by "change into jammies at next rest stop"

Evelyn knows how to get every last drop of ice cream

Sunglasses work just as well upside down

All in orange and ready to roll

Chocolate ice cream and silly girl

The lawn mowing might not come out too even if the driver keeps his eyes closed...

Just a little help from Mommy

More digging

A little game of croquet
