Memorial Day Weekend and Summer Day 2!

Todd and I bought tickets to go to Jubilee Cityfest back in February and we had been looking forward to seeing Montgomery Gentry and 3 Doors Down! The kids spent the weekend with Todd's parents in a cabin at Fort Rucker. They came home Monday so excited to tell us about all the things that they had done.

Todd and I braved the rain and went and enjoyed our nights out! Montgomery Gentry put on a GREAT show! I really enjoyed it! 3 Doors was OK. I think that anything following Montgomery Gentry would be a hard act to follow. It was two nights out that we really enjoyed.

Memorial Day was another rainy day. We had thought about going to the river with Ben and Alicia, but because of the rain, no one wanted to get caught out on the water. Instead, we had a low boil over at their house and Christy and Brad and their kids came. The kids had a great time playing outside. We had a nice afternoon and enjoyed the company, as we always do.

Day 2 of summer vacation, was OK, but did not go as planned.


After, our morning routine of flash cards, each child reading out loud, laundry and cleaning, we had planned to go to the library kick off party for the summer reading program, but because of the rain we decided not to go. Instead, I took the kids to Ria's Pizzeria, we had coupons!! (Yeah, for honor roll coupons) and then we walked around Pet's Mart and then we went to Target (needed dog food!!) While we were there we decided to get a 300 piece jigsaw puzzle to do for the afternoon during the rain. We had an OK day. I really need to figure out a way to get the kids to stop fussing. It drives me crazy.

Well, tomorrow we are planning to go to the splash pad in Montgomery and ride the trolleys downtown. Here's hoping for no rain!!
