Memorial Day 2012

We had such a lovely day on Memorial Day.

We spent the day at Janelle's house. I made BBQ Pork. And everyone brought a side dish.

It was pretty good if you ask me.

Jonathan and Melanie were in town for Jonas's first birthday.

I do love it when they are in town.

Emma girl was just a little tired that day. She took a 2 hour nap during the picnic.

Don't you just love all her rolls??

Since it was near 90, the kids were very excited that Janelle had a pool.

The babies, weren't near as excited.

Poor Jonas was teething. I felt so bad for the little guy.

Eli....well....being Eli.... ;)

The boys thought it would be great fun to run and jump into the pool.

The adults were just a LITTLE nervous. We didn't want any broken necks.

The boys on the side were making the "wave pool."

We all had a fun day.

It was so nice to have my Grandmother there. I love her so very much. She is always ready to give me a hug and tell me that I am her Jewel.

I think of this ^ when I think of her. ;) I think that she makes each one of us grandchildren feel that way.

I really hesitated to put up this picture. Since having Emma, I feel awful about myself. My body just isn't the same. And I hate this picture of myself. But it's great of my Grandmother.

I recently read this blog and it made me think a little. Little Emma was a long awaited blessing and I am very thankful for her. My body WILL eventually get better. Right now, it is still busy giving life to my little miracle. And that is what I am focusing on.
