Keeping Up With...Family (Memorial Day Weekend)

I love a long weekend!!  Normally we plan a few fun things and also take some time to catch up on some things.  This weekend has been all catch up (and trying to get a little ahead).  We were so busy the past 2 weekends, then we have AJ's birthday & vacation for the next 3 weekends.  So we really had to have a "no fun" weekend this weekend.  The good news is that almost my entire to do list is checked off and I'm actually starting on this week's stuff today.

This past week was also the last full week of school.  AJ has 6 more days and Daniel has 2.  I spent the past week signing them up for their summer activities.  AJ & Daniel are doing bowling camp, art lessons, golf camp and swimming lessons.  Zachary is doing gymnastics and swimming lessons.  And AJ wants to go back to hockey as soon as it starts up again.  So much for a calm, relaxing summer!!

Also on this Memorial Day we got some sad news.  Adrian's grandfather passed away over night.  He was 93 years old and has lived an amazing life.  He's been hurting for the past few months and we are all glad he is no longer in pain.  He will be missed by all of us in the Jones family.  I'm happy he knows that his family name will live on for at least one more generation in our 3 boys.

On a happier note, here are some quick pictures of our week.  Hope you are all enjoying your three day weekend!!
