Memorial Day Weekend! Most people look forward to Memorial Day weekend because it means an extra day off work. I too am one of those people who enjoys the long weekend. However, there is a much bigger reason behind the whole day. Memorial Day is the day we remember the those Americans who gave their lives for our Freedom. Without them we wouldn't have that freedom. I want to thank all the Veterans who serve our country - past, present, and future. Too many people go without remembering the Hero's of our country.
Well our weekend was a good one. We spent time with our family. We started the weekend off by having movie night at our house with Edd. I made dinner and then we watched some movies. First we watched The Little Mermaid 2, then Pocahontas 2, and after Sage went to bed we watched Zack and Miri make a porno. It was hilarious! It was fun just being at home and having dinner and a movie.
Saturday we were going to spend the day at the lake, but Christine got free tickets to the Twins game from her work, so we all went to the Twins game instead. It was Sage's first game and she had so much fun. She of course enjoyed the ice cream, popcorn, and a hot dog too! It was the hottest day of the weekend and we got super lucky and our seats were in the shaded section. I'm not a real big baseball fan, but I enjoyed the game. After the game we headed over to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the UFC fight, but just ended up waiting for an hour and a half and then we walked over to Applebee's. Christine and the kids came over after dinner for cake, which ended up being around 11pm, so we made it a sleepover.
Sunday morning, after our sleepover, we made breakfast. French toast, eggs, and delicious breakfast potatoes for everyone! We spent the rest of the day with Christine and the kids too. We made a trip over to their house and met their new kitten, Peaches. Sage just absolutely loved Peaches. It was also the perfect day to finally fly Sage's dragon kite and have some ice cream. Another fun day and Sage was completely worn out, just as much as I was too.
Monday, the wonderful extra day off work, was spent packing and cleaning. We're moving to a bigger apartment in early July, so we're getting all packed up now. It's nice to have a weekend that is busy and spent with people you love. I spend most weekends wishing I had something to do... so this nice long weekend was the just the weekend I needed. Perfect.
