Ah, Memorial Day Weekend

Memorial weekend has become the one and only time each year that we host a big blowout. Friends and family come from all over to just relax and enjoy.

Half the day is lots of kids running around in the sun enjoying sprinklers and slip-n-slides, while the adults sit in the shade eating burgers and drinking beers. At night, the kids go off to bed while the adults enjoy a campfire.

This was our fourth or fifth year and it was wonderful again – its so nice to spend some time with friends with nothing on the agenda except hanging out. Its funny that the first year, hardly anyone had kids, and now we almost all do. Its fun to interact with each others kids and get to know them as they get older each year.

Anyways, now that it is over, I can start to look forward to it again next year. (Unless of course, I am able to convince Erin to add Labor Day weekend to the tradition)
