Memorial Day weekend

We drove down to the cape on Friday for the long weekend. We started out the weekend at the inflatable park.  The kids were happy to be back! We spent the rest of the day playing around the house.

On Sunday, Mat and I raced a half marathon.  The kids watched Grandma D race a 5K then waited and cheered us on.  Afterwards, we worked in the yard while the kids played in the mud!

On Sunday night we grilled and roasted marshmallows.  It was a great kickoff to the summer!

Monday we woke up to a rainy day.  So, before heading home, we went out for ice cream.

Lacrosse, Soccer, Ice cream and Mila's birthday party

Elan has started playing lacrosse on Friday nights.  So far he likes it and the coaches are great.  It is mostly practice but there are a few games on the schedule, which should be fun.

On Saturday we spent the morning playing soccer then rode bikes to get ice cream.

Since Mila's birthday is in the middle of the summer, we decided to have her birthday party with school friends a few months early.  She was really excited to have all her friends come and do gymnastics with her and decided she wanted the theme to be minions.

After Mila's party we opened her gifts and then played outside for the rest of the afternoon.

Cold and rainy weekend

This weekend was cold and rainy.  After soccer we spent the rest of the weekend playing inside.

Science!

After Saturday morning soccer we decided to spend the day working on the house.  The kids spent the day digging holes in the yard.

On Sunday, Elan had his science fair.  He designed 4 different paper airplanes and tested how far they would go.  He had fun at the fair but was tired of talking towards the end of it.

After the science fair, we had a few friends over.  We all had a lot of fun.  The kids spent hours outside playing, which made us really happy.
