Happy Memorial Day!!!

What an amazing weekend we had!!! The weather could not have been better ~ sunny and in the 70s Friday through Monday. Garrett was fortunate enough to have Friday off work so we all enjoyed a wonderful four-day weekend ~ only wish every weekend was like that :)

We spent Friday around the house/neighborhood as Alli and I had our playgroup in the morning and Garrett was in charge of getting the big girl bed ready for nap time. That was a bit of a fiasco in that, contrary to the manufacturer's assurances, it needs an Twin XL mattress NOT a standard twin. Luckily, the trundle mattress fit well and that's where we planned on her sleeping for now anyway. The new mattress had to be ordered and will arrive next Saturday. Alli LOVES her new bed and has been sleeping like a champ ~ woo hoo! She got out during her first nap to play by emptying her dresser drawers but we explained that was not allowed and now she stays in and is pretty cute about telling us "no out." Here's a shot of our little sleeping beauty zonked in her new bed:

No pictures of the "new" big girl room until the new mattress arrives and we can set it up completely.

We spent both Saturday and Sunday out at the beach on Treasure Island, having a wonderful time throwing rocks in the water. It was so beautiful and relaxing out there and Alli could not have been happier to spend so much time at the beach ~ we're pretty sure that is currently her favorite thing to do ;-) Doesn't get much better than this!

Monday was spent working and playing in the yard. Garrett was even able to spend the afternoon golfing with his brother while Alli and I napped ~ it was a fun but exhausting weekend :) Sad to see it come to an end but we enjoyed every moment of it!!!

We hope you all enjoyed the weekend as much as we did!
