Memorial Day Weekend

Today is the girls last day of school, and we couldn't be more ready! After having a long weekend, we are so ready to be done with school! Mostly because I'm tired of fixing lunches- ha! 

Our Memorial Day weekend started off celebrating Megan's birthday. 

DJ worked to set up the kennel for our pup and then I found him spraying down two girls on the trampoline. 

Sunday morning, we tried a new church, had lunch, and then made our separate ways to birthday parties. Gretchen had a sleepover party with a friend so DJ dropped her off, and spent a few hours taking Megan on a bike ride and hitting up the pool, and I took Adalyn to a party for one of her classmates. 

Her party was at the All Abilities Park in Round Rock, and I had heard of it, but we hadn't been. After going, I know we'll be playing here throughout the Summer! 

She was one of the only girls in her class to come, so she tried hard to keep up with the boys until her BFF arrived. 

There was a zip line, and she had SO much fun! 

Once her bestie arrived, she was a happy camper! 

After the party, we were super hot, so we called DJ and had him and Megan meet us for ice cream. 

Monday morning, we got up early and headed to Houston to watch the Cubs play the Astros. We took Gretchen to Cubs games when she was little, but Megan and Adalyn had never been, and we haven't been in forever since we rarely had the chance to make it to a game when we lived in Oklahoma..... Indiana was a lot closer for us, so we would try to go once a year. 

DJ brother in law is getting treatment at MD Anderson, so they were there this week for his appointments. DJ's dad and step mom also made the trip down, so we all met up at the game! 

This is us hiding from the balls during practice.

And these were the guys watching, hoping a home run would come there way. 

This little one, headed down to the sidelines with her cousin to get some autographs! 

While everyone else watched on the sidelines (is that what they call it in baseball?) we sat down and watched. 

And then we made it to our seats, which were way up high! 

Their Memorial Day celebration was so special, and totally brought tears to my eyes. We're so thankful for those that sacrificed for our country. 

This girl knows the Longhorns symbol, so she made up one for the Cubs. 

Just three girls watching some baseball. 

At the beginning of the 8th inning, we made our way down and finished watching the last two innings. The Cubs scored 2 home runs and made for a close game at the end! 

All of the fam! 

After the game, we had dinner then headed back to Austin. I found this selfie of Adalyn on my phone. 

Tuesday morning, these girls headed off to school in their #Charliestrong shirts. We sure do love Uncle Charlie and we're praying for him to make a full recovery. 

Again, to everyone that gave the ultimate sacrifice- thank you.
