Memorial Day.

Ok so, remember how I told you I was going to a BBQ at Grandma's? Well, I did and it was pawesome and I got some bratwurst, and some of a hamburger and lots of Marrow Bones because I know how to open the cabinet where my g-ma keeps them and she thinks it's cute so I get lots. And the second best part was when my dad put the hammock out and I got to lay around with him. Here are some pics. Finally, new pics!

In this picture, my dad is reading and I am looking scholarly just by being there. (Hey Grandpa Bill, thanks for the hammock!)

I'm practicing looking pensive here - studying nature and the rebirth of spring and all that crap.

Handsome is the name of this one.

I'm going for distinuished here because I'm getting a lot of gray hairs so I will occasionally act my age for like a second or two.


OMD! And I totes forgot the whole point of Memorial Day, but my mom didn't. She took some time to remember her Grandma Nancy who was a truck mechanic in WWII, but she was trained as a cryptographer! How cool is that? She was a native NYC gal and the shock of 9/11 made her really sick(er), and she died shortly afterward. My mom misses her very much.

What a handsome hammock that is. I need one in my yard. But just for me to sit in - nobody else.

Our dad is looking over our shoulder as we're reading this post, Ike, and he is commenting how very handsome you are! We totally agree!

Love ya lots,

Hey Ike,
Sounds like you had a kick ass Memorial Day! And my Mama says no matter how old we're getting, we NEVER have to act our age!
