Memorial Day

Our Memorial Day started out early at the Annual Memorial Day Breakfast in Woods Cross!  As always my parents were cooking up the delicious breakfast for 2,000 + people, and this year they recruited Jeremy to help! 

Jeremy really enjoyed flippin' the pancakes! 

My mom using the power drill to stir the pancake batter...

My Dad... The Kind of Pancakes 

One of my favorite things is seeing/hearing the Bagpipes! 

The kids absolutely loved watching the Life Flight helicopter land and take off! 

They even got to check out the inside! 

Of course we had to do the Youth City Council Fishing Pond too!  Most of all, I just love seeing lots of old friends and neighbors!  It is such a fun event!

My parents were so kind to suggest that Jeremy and I go golfing!  I was SO EXCITED!  I haven't been in over a year!  We went to my favorite Par 3 course and we had so much fun!  I almost forgot how much I absolutely love to golf.  Love it.

Then we met up at Natalia's grave. 

It was good to be there together.  Just wish my brother and his family could have come.  I know Natalia always liked us to be all together. 

We headed back to my parents for a BBQ.  This was the Jello Flag I made! 

Oh my goodness.  We had the yummiest food EVER!  (Like always!) 

Boston and Hadley got to choose their birthday treats and everyone sang Happy Birthday to them!

It was a really good Memorial Day.  I enjoy being together and thinking about those who have fought for our freedom, and those who have gone before us.
