Memorial Day Weekend

We enjoyed a nice Memorial Day weekend! Saturday we drove to Veroqua to pick up bunkbeds for Brenna and Brody. We had found a gently used one that a friend's sister had posted on Facebook.  I forgot to take a picture of the bunkbeds. Since Veroqua is close to Onalaska, which is where Chucky Cheese is, we decided to surprise the kids by stopping there on our way home.  This was their first time at Chucky Cheese.  They have been asking to go there since they turned three so it was about time that we made it.  It's a very family friendly place and we all had fun! The kids both had smiles on their faces the entire time. 

Brenna was a little nervous about this game but ended up liking it.

This was a stimulator and it was hilarious watching Brenna and Brody. They were both giggling.
Looks like summer...
On Sunday we needed to get mattresses for the bunk beds so Steve and I asked cousin Tyler to babysit.  He needed money for his Washington trip so it was a win-win situation.  They were all ready to throw water balloons and run through the sprinkler.  Tyler takes great pictures these days. After we got mattresses, Steve and I went and ate at The Livery and then went back to Osseo to visit with friends who had just moved into a different house. It was a fun date night!
On Monday, Grandma, the kids and I attended the Memorial Day parade in Eau Claire. We met Angie there. This is our second year attending the EC parade so now I guess it's a tradition!

Brenna and Brody both love listening to the band.
 
Grandma De-De always tears up when she sees this Shriner float in any parade.  I think it's the saying on it. Something like, "we clown for fun so weak legs can run." We also decided she looks like "Maxine" in her new shades.
After the parade we headed to Grandma Merri's to help her plant flowers and then finally went home to enjoy the rest of the day!
 Have a great weekend!  Last day of 4K pictures coming soon hopefully!
