Memorial Weekend Fun

We had a pretty relaxing long weekend here at the Young household.  Saturday we whipped out the swimming suits for the first time this season.  Daddy purchased a Slip n' Slide for the kiddos to try out.  There was some slippin' but not much slidin'!!  Daddy even put on his swim trunks and tried to show them how it's done:)  Quite a sight!!  Too bad I didn't get that on video!  It will be a little while until they get the concept.  Especially Max, who seems to be afraid of getting wet.  He warmed up to the idea after a while.

  Here's a video of the kids "racing." 

Of course, Max had to win.  He had a hard time letting his little sister get to the finish line first.  We had my mom and a few of the siblings over for a cookout dinner that night, with some more slip n' slide fun! 

Sunday was a day at home, mowing and watering the thirsty lawn.  That night we went to a Graduation dinner for our nephew, Conor.  He's officially a freshman in high school!

Memorial Day was spent playing outside.  Mike and Max brought out the baseball and bat.  Max did some awesome hitting!  He is a natural 'lefty.'  Daddy was pretty impressed with his skills!  Max just told me today that he wants to be a baseball player and hit the ball:)  Future Cubbie maybe?!?!?!  I got to finish out the day with a movie, Sex and the City 2, with my mother-in-law and a couple of sisters-in-law!

We hope all families enjoyed the nice, HOT, long weekend together<3
