Memorial Day weekend & birthday fun :)

My birthday fell on Memorial Day weekend this year, and we had plans to go to Battle Creek to celebrate with Mem. :)

Before we left for Battle Creek, we went out the night before to Salt and Pepper for an early birthday celebration. :)

The morning of my birthday started with a gift from dad - a new North Face - my favorite. :) :)

Then to Mem's house!

It was a little cool, but that didn't stop the girls from going in the water!

The adults just supervised. ;-)

It eventually got a little cold for them - so play doh and coloring outside was the next choice!

A little later, during a little quiet time for everyone else inside, I snuck outside to watch the CrossFit regionals competition on YouTube.

Before dinner, we headed to the park - there was a lot of work on the monkey bars!

Dinner time - we grilled out :)
Birthday cheers!!

Sparkling wine for me, juice for Cam :) 

Presents!

After dinner, we made a drive over to Fort Custer National Cemetery. I wanted to show Taylor and Camryn where my Grandpa Bob was buried. The entire area was prepped for Memorial Day - the flags were beautiful. 

I really loved that the girls got to go see his stone, and find out a little more about who he was. :)

A beautiful way to end a birthday day :)

The next morning, I loved drinking coffee out of my new mug!

And we headed to the zoo!

The girls...all cashed out after a great weekend. :)

And, the next week? A fun first workout with my new birthday present - the EmPack. :)
