Happy....weekend!

It was a full but fun weekend this Memorial Day weekend.  We spent time with both families and had a very enjoyable time. 

We went up to Prescott on Friday for
Grandpa Norman's birthday, had a bbq and
yummy red velvet cake. 







The kids got to see brand new baby birds in a nest behind Grandma and Grandpa's bbq grill, but were also witness to the harsh realities of life, (momma bird got eaten *to put it mildly* by an animal and baby birds did not make it) and helped or rather watched Grandpa bury the birds in the backyard.  We had a fun day planned for Saturday, kite flying, playing at Josh's house, but for some reason we always end up going to Prescott when it's freezing cold (a whopping high of 61 in the end of May!)

 We made it to Josh's for some 4 wheelin' and veggie hunting in their garden.  Brinn loved looking for and
picking peas. 


Everyone on...

Ok, now move where you're supposed to!

 Kite flying was the next stop, it turned out to be too windy and all we have to show for it are "owies"              
  Brinn tripped on the kite string, tried to take her foot off. 

We headed back down to the valley for a Memorial Day bbq with Grandma and Grandpa Luma.  We got to spend time with Leanne and the kids who are here visiting!! 
                                                                               Brinn loved playing with her cousins and had a good time getting into mischief with "Lucast" (as she called him).

The bbq spread.  Savor it now, because in just a few short minutes, this delicious food will be swarmed by tons of flies.  I am so bummed that I didn't get a picture of that catastrophy.  I think we spent more time trying to keep them off our food than actually enjoying it....ahh C'est la vie.
What a wonderful weekend, filled with lots of love and fun with family!
