"So I commend the enjoyment of life, because nothing is better for a man under the sun than to eat and drink and be glad. Then joy will accompany him in his work all the days of the life God has given him under the sun." Ecclesiastes 8:15

Memorial Day Weekend

Nothing like a weekend recap on a Friday...just in time for the next weekend to start!  I'm mostly going to let the pictures do the talking with a few captions here and there.  Mostly it's this first picture that needs an explanation....
 
Lyle came into my bathroom and announced "I'm a conductor T-Rex!"  This kid cracks me us.  He is always dreaming up something!
 
 
Aria's favorite thing right now is to swing.  She begs and begs to go "Weeeeng!"
We enjoyed a day at home on Saturday, and planted several new things in the front flower beds.

 
Sunday we met up with my mom, so she could take the kids for the night and we could go out for our anniversary.  We started with a movie at the new Warren 21.  Recliner seats are the ultimate way to see a movie I've decided!  You can also order food and eat it in the theatre.

 
Monday we relaxed at home, then met up with everyone for an early dinner.  We met them at Stearman Field Bar and Grill for supper.  It is a cute little restaurant next to the airport in Benton, KS (a small town north of Wichita, next to Kechi).  You can sit under the covered patio and watch the planes land and take off while you eat.  There is also a small playground area that the kids played on while we waited for our food.  Which is perfect because we always have a rough 10-15 minutes at restaurants trying to entertain the kids when they are hungry and bored.  The food was great and the weather was perfect.




Everytime a plane would come in the kids would run to the fence to watch.  It was so much fun!



It was a fun weekend celebrating our (7th) anniversary and spending time together as a family.  Now onto the next weekend of fun!
