Happy Memorial Day!

We had a great day on Monday. We went to Flag Pole Hill and had a BBQ. It was so yummy. Our friends made delicious Shish kabobs. We found a perfect spot in the shade and even the playground was shaded.

They allowed the kids to check out the fire truck before the concert. They loved it. I couldn't get them to all look at me and pose, but they enjoyed talking to the fire fighters. They were shown the hoses and the siren. Some of them even got to speak on the radio.

We made balloon animals, played with bubbles and then it was time for the Dallas Symphony Orchestra to play for us. It was wonderful, they did a great job. The kids loved it. The kids danced around and enjoyed themselves. After the concert there were fireworks. Joshua hates fireworks. Dallin I think would have been fine but since every other kid was crying he decided he wasn't sure about them either, so we left before the firework show was over. It worked out well, because then we beat everyone else out of there. All in all it was a wonderful way to celebrate Memorial Day and honor those who have gone before us, espcially those in the Military.
