Memorial Day Weekend 2009

We had a fun Memorial Day Weekend.

On Saturday, we drove down to Court's parents house for a crawfish boil and swimming with cousins. We had a blast! Meredith really enjoyed playing in the water and was sad when it was time to get out. Court enjoyed the crawfish, and even coaxed me into trying some. It really wasn't that bad, I just don't like to eat things that are looking back at me. I kept hearing people talking about sucking the heads and I was grossed out. Ew! LOL. But I did eat some corn that was so spicy that it almost burned my lips off, and a hamburger and a whole lot of other yummy stuff! Fun times! I love my in-laws!

On Sunday we went to church and then later that evening went to our friends the McDaniels' house and cooked hot dogs and 'smores over their fire pit. The grown ups sat and visited while the kids jumped on the trampoline and played on the swing set. It started raining after a while, so we had to pack it in and call it a night, but we had a lot of fun!

Then on Monday, we had a quiet, low-key day at home. Court has been working so much and so busy with school, it was nice to just be home together. We played Mario Cart on the Xbox, watched the Land of the Lost marathon on the SciFi Network, took naps and went and walked around the mall. It was awesome! The most exciting part of the day for Meredith was when she got her new kitchen play set. Some friends of ours are moving (we're going to miss the Huntsmans a lot) and they had a fun kitchen play set and a kids sized table and chairs that they didn't want to have to move. So, they kindly gave them to Meredith. Since her birthday is in two weeks, it was perfect timing! We haven't been able to get Meredith out of that kitchen! Thank you so much Huntsmans! That kitchen will definitely get used A LOT!
