Memorial Day Weekend

I know, that Memorial Day weekend was nearly a week ago, but sometimes I just don't feel like blogging and I wait until I don't mind blogging. So now I will get to what a wonderful fun filled weekend we had.

Briana and Troy and Kylin came to visit us and we had so much fun. We went boating on Friday afternoon when they got here,becuase Elijah was dying to try out his new birthday gift his ski's and guess what he got up:). We went boating Saturday afternoon till evening, we ate at brusters (ice cream place) and we even found out about a restraunt here we didn't know we had. Troy was telling us about Pizza Palace which was on TV on the show Dinners, Drive-Ins and Dives. This place is totally a Dive and in a terrible location downtown Knoxville, but the food is fabulous. In fact we went there again last night for dinner taking our neighbors with us. Anyway, Troy and Briana left Sunday morning and then our little family continued our fun weekend.

Sunday we ate out at Palancho's for lunch after church then enjoyed the rest of the day outside and around the house relaxing. Monday we went out on the boat again for 6 hours. Got a bit of sun, but nothing that I was hurting over:) So much fun and we really enjoyed having Briana and Troy and Kylin here. Thank you guys for making such a long trip. I know how it is!!!
