Saturday we have a graduation party for my nephew and then a birthday party for my sweet sister Margie, which is being held at our camp, and then a quick trip home for late mass so Rhett can serve. And then me collapsing in exhaustion, or thankfulness that I am home.
Sunday Madison is singing at our high school graduation in the morning, and then we have two graduation parties to attend. One is for Jeffrey, which I am planning on attending for sure. The other...I may put a card in the mail and call it a day. Is that awful???
Monday, Memorial Day, we spend together as a family. We always attend the parade in our little town and then plant our flowers. Steve is planning on making a pork loin on the grill and I think I will keep it simple with some baked potatoes and steamed broccoli with cheese. And then we will do baths, showers, backpacks, and lunches to get ready for the last week of school! Well, That is what we have planned for this holiday weekend. I hope yours is happy, and warm and festive, whatever your plans may be!
The beautiful trees that line our driveway did their thing this year...
and I am glad.
Somebody likes to give her brother lots of love before he leaves for school.
This is what the bottom of our driveway looks like with all in bloom...
and after Steve spends a few hours on his mower!
And here is where he keeps that huge machine...along with assorted bikes, scooters, balls, and bubbles!
Someone had ponytails this week...and looked a little too old for her mama.
One more birthday boy pic...
and a few of my little sweetie on a random spring morning...
Spring is here! Spring is here!
Wondering what is happening to her beautiful dandelions...
and being ok with it when I told here you can blow on them and make a wish...
Happy Memorial Day Weekend, friends!
I cannot get my 3 year old to wear anything in her hair except a pony tail. No bows, no flowers. Nothing. Your sweet girl is adorable!
ReplyDeleteWe have a ton of grad parties this year, a weekend full of them!
Love the patriotic look over here!
I love your yard and trees!!!! I'm jealous of people who live in the country. I'm a country girl, my husband is a city boy. Our backyard is country looking, hills, no neighbors...but our front looks typical neighborhood in a town. I guess it's our compromise!
Our flowering trees are just about to open up, so we must be about a week or so behind you!
Have a great weekend!! God bless!
Ahh! I love the last one especially with those cute lips puckering out like that. My goodness, your trees in bloom are just fantastic, just gorgeous! Your drive, especially the end of it, is amazing. I would sit on my porch and look at it all day long :) may you enjoy your festive weekend! And God bless our troops!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful trees you have in your yard. I wish we had some land for the kids to enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI love that your town has a parade. We live in a smaller town and the 4th of July week is big here with a parade, rodeo and fireworks all week long. I love small towns.
Good luck with the parties...you know I would be the same way. :)
Have a wonderful weekend!
I am in love with your property! It's beautiful. Flynn is looking so adorable in that hair bow. You have a busy weekend ahead. I'm all for ditching the other party--but I hope they don't read your blog!
ReplyDeleteHave fun, Billie Jo.
Love your yard and the pictures of your beautiful children! Happy Birthday Rhett! So happy my son shares his birthday with such a sweet young man.
ReplyDeletewhat a beautiful yard and those trees!!! and driveway!! lovely!
