memorial weekend 2012.

This past weekend was full of sun, BBQs, and family.  It also marked the end of the school year for the kids (except for poor, little Ava who has half days all this coming week).  Nick finished his exams and Samantha graduated 8th grade (woop woop!).  We celebrated all of their amazing accomplishments with a  BBQ (complete with school color-coordinated seating arrangements) and a trip to Ted Drewes for some amazing frozen custard.  Tonight we all headed over to my parents' house with my sisters, Julie and Leslie , Julie's bf Daniel and their puppy, Bubbie.  We ate, shared a few beverages (who hasn't had a Limerita yet?  Shame on you....), laughed, and then the girls and I attempted gymnastics out in the front yard.  One question:  where did my 16 year old flexible gymnast/dancer body go??  Ten years can make a WHOLE lotta difference....After Ava reminding me that 26 is not old and I should "man-up", I finally attempted a front walk-over, an acrobatic trick I thought to be one of the easy, "once you get it, you've got it for life" kinda things.  MAN WAS I WRONG.  Let's just say I'm laying on a heating pad as we speak.  Sad.  Here are some pictures from our weekend of fun, hope you all had as great a time as we did  : )  ENJOY!
