Memorial Day Weekend

What a jam packed weekend.

Corinne and I had a fabulous time in Frankfort with Granny and Grandpa.

We went up Thursday afternoon as soon as I got out of work. We arrived just in time to unpack the car and watch the sunset. Corinne decided she did not need a nap while we drove, and was a trooper. We had a great time on the beach, on the playground, and visiting!
We came home Sunday night to go to the Memorial Day Parade with daddy this morning. I always thought of Memorial Day as the Spring equivalent of Labor Day. It was just a day off. The parade is very respectful and always put Memorial Day in perspective. The mother and family mourning in a convertible with a picture of their lost loved on bring tears to my eyes. It is an interesting mix because the kids love all the planes, motorcycles, fire engines, and the purpose is so serious.
