Happy Memorial Day

Wow!! What a beautiful day outside.  90 degrees and SUNNY!! We had a crazy busy weekend this weekend.  It seems like every time we get a long weekend it goes by way too quick. Friday night, Nolan and Bill were able to have some fun before all of the crazy running around started.  Poot sure loves his daddy!!


The craziness started Saturday, Nolan and I drove up early because I wanted Nana to give me a new hairstyle.  I got at least 8 inches cut off and my hair is now a chestnut brown.  Nolan didn't know what to think when I was talking to him.  He would smile and then just stare at me, like who is this woman that sounds like my mommy.  Bill arrived around 5:00 and we went to cousin Ethan's graduation party.  I cannot believe Ethan has graduated from High School.  When Bill and I first started dating, he was in 8th Grade. Anyways, the weather was not cooperative, 40 degrees and rainy.  It was a good thing we didn't arrive to the party any earlier than we did because Irving had softball size hail that did MAJOR damage to a lot of cars and houses.  Poor Aunt Lori and Ethan's trucks are ruined!! :( Poot did a great job though, he toughed it out for a few hours even though he was passed around like a sack of potatoes.

Sunday morning, Bill went back down to our house to work on his thesis without any interruptions.  Sunday afternoon, Nolan and I went to two more graduation parties.  Sunday's weather was the complete opposite of Saturday's weather.  We went to cousin Dillon and cousin Hannah's graduation parties.  We had a great time and Nolan was passed around again and was able to meet everyone.  It was really neat because Nolan was able to meet my kindergarten teacher.

The Pfiefer families are in town from Tennessee, so after the graduation parties Sunday, everyone went to Grandma and Grandpa Young's for a get together.  Poor Nollie was so exhausted, we skipped the party so he could catch up on his sleep.  He slept SO GOOD, and so did mommy!!

Monday morning, we missed daddy, so Papa T drove down to pick him up and bring him back for the party at Fuller's.  We didn't want to have two cars, and I wanted to take a nice nap on the way home after the party.  While Papa T was picking up Bill, Aunt Kelby and I wanted to dip Nolan's feet in the pond to see what his reaction would be.  The water was a little chilly, so I was worried he would become upset.  We were surprised when he stood in the water and didn't object at all.  I think it helped because Boog, our dog, was in the water next to Nolan lapping up the water.  Nolan just smiled at Boog and stared at the waves he was making.  I hope one day Nolan and Boog become inseparable.  Boog has started to become more comfortable around Nolan, he even licked Poot's toes and made him laugh.  After Bill and Papa T made it home, we went to Fuller's around noon and had a great time with all of the family.  The food was delicious!!
