"I always wondered how people could say. " I love you" to people they don't even know, but now I realize that we all knew each other well a long time before. We're really just finally meeting up with old friends. "

What a fun Day!

First off, happy memorial Day. I hope every one had a chance to spend time with their family and remember the loved ones and those who have fought for what we have today. We truly are indebted to them. I am thankful for all of those who fought for this country and the freedoms that they fought for.

We had a wonderful day. Started out of course nice and early because Hailey is a very faithful alarm clock that for some reason you just can not hit the snooze button past 7. We had a wonderful breakfast-strawberries, toast and omelets. yum yum. And then we headed out to the golf course and helped Jason hit a bucket of balls. Hailey had so much fun!
Hailey tried to help carry the balls. At first the basket was a little to heavy for her task-hence the face.
But then once Jason took out half the balls and put them in his she enjoyed caring them to the driving range.
We all took turns hitting the ball. Hailey's first gold lesson.
Yep, 41 weeks pregnant and even i tried to hit the ball. I had maybe two nice shoots out of like twenty but it sure was fun.
And of course the pro... I do not know if we told you but he is on the gold team up here. So he has golf practice twice a week and then a tournament every Friday. He really does love it--so much that he can not stop thinking about when he gets home and has a hard time sleeping the nights he goes because he just keeps thinking- it is really cute.
Hailey being a good little ball girl. She would throw us a ball when we needed one.


Hailey not wanting to give up the club/playing trying to take it away from Jason-she thinks she is so funny. It was pretty cute.
Hailey taking a drink out of Jason's water bottle. She just loves his water bottles any time she can get a hold of them she wants them.
Play time-two year olds...
Helping bring the baskets back up to the ball machine. She really wanted to ride in a golf cart. Some time we will have to go to the smaller golf course on a really slow morning and take her out. She just wanted to stay all day.

Well after we went golfing we came home played out side, took a nap, did some home work, and then Hailey and I went o run some errand. While we were out I remembered that we should go to the cemetery and visit my Great Grandma's grave. So we went and got some flowers and went out to the Rexburg cemetery.
Hailey wanted to carry the flowers.
Luckily I remembered were they were. It had been 2 years since we have been back-shame on us- we are only 5 minutes away.
This is my Great Grandma's grave. There are still plots here for family so when it is my grandparents time they will also be laid here with her.
this grave stone is one of my Uncles. I'm not sure if it is a great Uncle or if you say Uncle once removed. But it is my mothers brothers grave. We put flowers next to his too. He has a little lamb on the top. He never reached the age of one.
I tried to get Hailey to sit next to the grave stone, this is the best should would do. I hope Great grandma sees it as her wanting to sit on her lap and not disrespectful. She had fun out there.

Then we came home and had a BBQ with our neighbors, which was fun until it rained-so sad beautiful all day and then when we want to eat it rains. But yum yum the food was great. So we had a wonderful day- and we hope yours was too!
