Memorial Day




My Mom spent a large part of the day out in her garden, ignoring the rest of us! My Dad joked that she should be called "the constant gardener."






Tom finally planted the "Carnivorous Creations" plant that he got for the kids (but also for us because it's supposed to eat pesky bugs!) I made the kids wait to do it with him, since he got it for them. They've been waiting and waiting! Some will grow within 3-6 weeks, and others not for a year!




That's the face Jacob makes to yell at me (like when I won't let him eat nails or summersault down the steps or something).





Justin took a nap for a couple hours after he accidentally burned the upper inside of his arm on the brownie pan. He tried to reach past it for something on the table and he just curled up in a ball on the couch, telling me, "Mommy, it hurts too much!"






Memorial Day 2009




A quiet Memorial Day.......not a whole lot to report. I had lots of cleaning to do before we could even make food. Aunt Laura was a huge help with that-she mopped the kitchen floor and made deviled eggs! We actually had some left over this time, which was strange.
Tom had to go check out a roof quick, and he came home with a coffee for me. : )
I made peanut butter cup brownies for Tom but I think he only got two or three-they were really good! Ask Jacob, who attacked them when no one was looking!


And a picture of corn on the cob, just cuz it's one of my favorite foods!

Happy Memorial Day!

Translation: Memorial Day is about people who were in World War II. My Mom's Grandpa was in World War II.
