Memorial Day Weekend Part 1

We went to Fillmore for Memorial Day Weekend. We had a fun filled few days with all the family. Friday and Saturday night we stayed at my sister Mandy's house, we pitched tents in her yard and kind of had like a little camp-out. The kids had a blast.
Saturday we played some games-my sister Tiffanie made an obstacle course. We all enjoyed that-it got pretty competitive when it was the adults turn ;)
 My Mom, Jeff, and I built a water blob for the kids to play on...I have to say it was one of the highlights-they loved it and played on it until it finally got a hole. The only one who didn't like it was Bryce-he was so not digging it.
 We had previously all made flags and we brought those to represent each family. I think they turned out pretty nice.
 Bryce couldn't hack it and had to take a nap during some of the activities.
 We also made all of the kids these jersey shirts. They had their name on the back as well as their number in order of grand-kids. Grandma, Grandpa, and Great Grandma all got one to that said Coach Grandma or Coach Grandpa on the back.


 Later that afternoon we spent several hours at the baseball field. We played a game...then when we had all worn ourselves out with that-most of us went to the motel to swim while the men stayed behind and had a home run derby-needless to say they were all sore for days after.
  When we didn't have stuff going on or planned we ate and visited. The kids had fun jumping on the trampoline, shooting bow and arrows, riding the 4-wheeler, visiting Tyler and Sam's puppies, swimming at the motel (where Grandma, Great Grandma, and Aunt Sandi stayed), and sleeping on the trampoline. We also made a trip to the cemetery to visit the graves of both Landon and I's Grandpas who are buried there.
