Happy Memorial Day!

This is the third year we have gone to Bishop for Memorial Day Weekend and Jack's first Mule Days. Hannah was very excited for the parade. She enjoyed waving her American Flag and telling people she had "Cowgirl Shoes." Which were not even close to cowgirl shoes, but she wanted to be just like Auntie Katie so we went with it. Hannah says her favorite part about the parade was when Ronald McDonald waved to her and his hat flew off. She also liked eating donuts while we waited for it to start. Little Jack enjoyed being pushed in the stroller by Daddy back and forth along the parade route. After the parade we went to the craft fair. Hannah loved this too. Nana bought her a cute princess crown which she ended up wearing the whole weekend. She looked so cute from behind walking through the booths with her crown holding her giant bag of kettle corn. She also picked out a Princess Jasmine necklace. The following day we went to church and Hannah went up to the children's service all by herself. I teared up a little because it's the first time she has ever gone up without us and it makes you realize that she just doesn't need us as much anymore. It also made me very proud of her. Later in the day we headed to the fair grounds and Hannah loved petting all the donkeys, mules and horses with Nana. She still talks about this crazy one that looked like a giraffe. Hannah loves animals and I am so happy she has these experiences. Next year she has plans to 'learn how to be a packer' so she can win a blue ribbon. At dinner Hannah prayed for all the "mules, donkeys, horses and for taking me to church." So sweet. Hannah loves playing in Nana and Gramps' big back yard, especially the giant play house. Jack liked playing in the water fountain and pulling dirt out of the flower pots. Nana made some great food, we fed the ducks at the park, went on the swings, played games, slept in a princess tower, played in the water and had a great weekend.
