Memorial Day Weekend!

We had a crazy Memorial Day weekend. It was a lot of traveling and a lot of fun.

On Sunday, my youngest cousin graduated from High School! WOOO HOOO Brittany! We are all sooooooo proud of you! They live in WAY southern Ohio (Jackson area) so it was a little drive to get us there (three hours or so) and we got in just as the party was starting...LOL. They live out in the country on a BEAUTIFUL piece of land and it was so amazing. A lot of the family was there and it was so nice to see everyone. Kris and I were tired, and so were the kids, but we are so, so glad we went down to share that special day with Britt and the family. Seriously....I am so proud of her for getting to this point in her life. It is a BIG accomplishment!!!!!

We spent the night down there and then today we headed over Washington Court House, where my dad's side of the family lives so that Mikayla could meet her great grandma and grandpa for the first time! They live on a farm and Alec always loves it there. He picks strawberries, goes on tractor rides...and does things that we cannot do in the city! LOL! It was such a nice vist and I was glad that we finally were able to make it down there so that they could see their new grand-daughter. Mikayla was in a great mood today and even let them hold her for a little bit....which is unlike her.

I am too tried to write much more but I wanted to get these pictures on here. Tomorrow is our North East Ohio Guatemalan Day at the Zoo I put together. There will be about 15 moms there and a lot of babies! I try to organize something every month for us all to get together and since it's summer we are heading to the Akron Zoo. So off to bed I go and I will post zoo pictures tomorrow!
