Memorial Day 2014

 For Memorial Day we went to the zoo and had planned on going to the library downtown but forgot that it would be closed...so we strolled along the greenbelt for awhile and wandered over to the BSU campus.
I am one lucky lady to have so many handsome men bringing me flowers:
And of course no walk is complete without a stick or two...
And some photo ops around the campus...do you see creeper Ethan trying to hide from the camera?

 There were so many things to see and climb on and over and under...
After climbing over these bike racks Kamden said "THAT hurt..." then squared his shoulders as he looked ahead and said, 
"Three more to go."
Sadly, we weren't in time 
for the Quidditch Tournament.
We wanted to go ring the bell that Jeff & I had walked to and rung on our first date, but it wasn't there anymore so the boys ran around the tennis courts for a bit before we continued on.
Then it got really hot as we walked back to the car and none of us thought we were going to make it. It's a good thing we weren't Pioneers. We made a quick stop by Sonic for some slushes before going home. Jeff took the kids to the pool while Olivia and I rested at home. It was a fun and relaxing day, and we are so thankful to those who have sacrificed so much so that we can live in this wonderful country.
Happy Memorial Day!
