Memorial Weekend

We had a busy, but fun, memorial weekend! We started it off by going to dinner Friday night with The Pecks at Hooters!! I know some of you may be thinking that this is wierd that we would go to dinner at Hooters but we actually love their food and normally love to sit on the patio!! However, this was not the case on Friday night. They had a band playing on the patio that was by far, the loudest thing I have ever heard!! We love live music but we couldn't even hear ourselves think, it was so loud!! We stayed on the patio about 10 or 15 minutes before deciding that there was really no point in being at dinner together if we couldn't talk! So...we moved inside! After dinner, Justin, Ryan and Aaron went night fishing and Tayson and I went home and went to bed!!

Saturday morning, Tayson and I met Amber at Target to start our day of shopping! We went all over the place and had a blast!! Tayson can be a tricky little guy at the mall because he hates to stay in his stroller and if you put him down, he's gone!! We didn't find a whole lot of great things but I did get these Yellow Box flip flops!!

I love yellow box flip flops and if you don't own a pair, you should head out RIGHT NOW and get some!!

Saturday night, we had The Pecks and The Norris's over for dinner. We had a great time just eating good food and hanging out! Tayson loves to play with Collin (who is 2 1/2). The two of them made quite a mess with all of the toys, but they had a great time. They have a love/hate relationship. They love to take each others toys and hate when it happens to them! It is so funny to watch them.

Sunday, we met Matt, Lynn and Collin at Las Margaritas for some lunch and then headed to the pool. Tayson LOVED the water and has absolutely no fear! It took Justin and I both chasing him around the entire time to keep up with him. He didn't mind if his face got wet, he would just get up and keep on going!! I know we are going to have lots of fun swimming this summer!

Sunday night we headed over to my mom and dad's house for my sister's 21st birthday party!! Her actual birthday isn't until June 3rd but because she and Billy were leaving Monday morning to go back to California, we had to have her party before they left! It was a lot of fun because my dad had been playing in the Member-Guest golf tournament all weekend at the Fayetteville Country Club so some of my parent friends from out of town, that we don't get to see too often, were there!!


Notice the chocolate ice cream all over Tayson's face...he couldn't wait any longer!



Monday we went over to Gentry to the Safari and had a blast! Tayson loves animals and he was just in heaven with all of these animals walking around and coming up to the car! I had not been over there since I was a kid and I must say, it is much better than I remember it being!!

I did a horrible job of taking pictures this weekend so I'm sorry for the lack of pictures! I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day!!

Your weekend sounds busy like ours! I can totally relate to you in the shopping with a pre-toddler experience. Jett hates the stroller too and if I put him down, off he goes!! I end up chasing him around the mall for two hours and leaving with nothing.
Good times!! I have never heard of those flip flops. I will have to check them out!
