As the days went by this week, it felt more and more like Summer was really coming after all! We enjoyed the long weekend by biking all the way to Grandma & Grandpa Bergs. It is about 4 miles from our house, however their is a HUGE hill to go up:( We made it with a short pit stop at St. Olafs Park. On Friday, Sunday and Monday, Cal was helping Grandpa Mike put in a sprinkler system, and as things go for us, it took longer than expected! (Yep still not done.)
Swinging at the park!
Taking a water break!
Climbing the monkey bars.
Back on the bikes!
Cambree was playing with the camera, and took her own self portrait!
We also got the dock in this weekend! Yeah, now to get the boat running!
We picked out our flowers and planted them right away! That evening the river was in picture perfect condition!
Cal did most of the work of course, because he is so picky that he gets the tape measure out!
We planted our very first garden! It is not huge but the girls were pretty excited to do it. They have checked every day to see if anything is growing yet! We planted strawberries, tomatoes, carrots, green onions, cucumbers, beans and radishes! Deer, deer, stay away!
The girls also put a few left over beans in pots and told me they had mini gardens. They mixed seeds, so it will be interesting if something grows!
On Sunday night Cambree convinced us to go see the new Pirates movie at the drive in theatre! I wasn't sure if the movie was right for the girls, but we all ended up enjoying it and it was fun to wind down after a busy day. All I have to say is the mermaids are weired!
Relaxing with daddy!
Mommy too!
Cambree insisted on this picture!
On Monday we celebrated Memorial Day by first going to the parade!
It was fun for the whole family!
Our yearly picture!
Getting candy, the best part of course! It is funny because we save the candy and the girls forget about if by the time we get home and we end up throwing it. It sure is fun to chase out into the street for though!
Cousin Love!
It was a HOT day and I loved it! The girls of course thought they would try out the river! BRRRRRR, it is still a bit cold! That doesn't stop Cambree though, she had to be pulled out to thaw, or she would stay in all day!
We also had family over for supper!
What a perfect day with great food, family and the best reason of all...SUMMER! We can't wait for more! Have a great week! Love, The Lokkens
