Memorial Weekend and More!

This past weekend was possibly the most wonderful sweet heart felt weekend I have had in ages.  We went camping.  Simple as that.  Camping.  I enjoyed Chad's family, great food, company, friends, games, phone free hours without end, my sweet baby girl... you name it! It was just that great weekend that I could re-live over and over again.  Camping Memorial weekend is something we do each year. It's a memory I could re-live for Avery over & over again.  She enjoys riding her bike around our camp circle over & over again, enjoys being in the lake with her cousin, eating sweet treats, camping in the camper & sitting around playing games.  It's that kind of fun that I can't live without.  Just makes me smile over and over again.

Enjoy our weekend of bliss!

First, my sweet niece enjoyed a day with me through Wal-mart getting all of our camping goodies!  I spoiled her rotten and bought her anything she wanted... OPPPPPPS!

{How cute is she}. . .

I kicked off the weekend with my "star" toes!

HERE WE COME!

The girls enjoyed kicking the weekend off with a fun new sprinkler that Aunt Sassy got Avery for her 4th Birthday coming up!  Such a great present!

They enjoyed playing beauty shop & getting their hair braided.  I can't believe that my almost 4 year old has long hair!

Of course upon camp set up they played dress up in Stella's "pretty woman" hat!

They ate up bubble time with their Mammie!

And played kiddie horse shoes!

I personally kicked off the weekend with my sis in law chilling in our fav chairs!

Sunny grassy fresh morning made this Momma smile!  Simple happiness!  YES PLEASE!

We enjoyed the lake!

Fell asleep with my niecelet!

My other sweet niece Kelsey enjoying the sun!

And had a ball with my sweet dear friend Danielle on the jet ski's!

Ate up some special time with my man of 8 years!  We enjoyed chilling together, watching our girl play, and going on a few rides together in the evenings!

And of course Avery enjoyed her Daddy time too!

I took in all of the beautiful sunsets! 

And the beauty of the sunshine during the day!

 Yup- I am eating up every second!

My sweet cousin Gretchen's daughter joined us this weekend so I enjoyed some quality time with her riding bikes one evening!

I just love my Jaycee time of course she had a blast too!

The girls eat her up!

And speaking of the girls....

They sure know how to have fun!

And nap too after having so much fun!

Blessed by Chad's family we had so much fun at our last night cookout!

My in-laws are some of my best friends EVER!.... I am so lucky!

We ate yummy goodness all weekend... this doesn't even do justice of our yummies!

It was such a great weekend at camp!  I hated to say good-bye!

But this Memorial Day I was so thankful for all of those who have served in our country for our freedom, so blessed, so thankful!

Another fun thing that happened this past Thursday was that Avery graduated from pre-K.  Her little play was so precious!

Last day of school May 2013

We are all so proud of you Avery!

 I enjoyed my decorations for celebrating the Memorial Weekend!  Thankful for all who have blessed us in our country!!!

Can you believe that Avery turns FOUR next weekend?  CRAZY!  Stay tuned for her "butterfly birthday" party!

I have an awesome blog coming up for a family friend who make these goodies, you won't want to miss out!!!!!
