Memorial Day Weekend 2010

What a wonderfully relaxing weekend!!

We started the weekend by building a darling flower bed in the back yard.

Then Nick and I had a date night at RePUBlic. We LOVE RePUBlic. Seriously, we really love it. I had a Chocolate Truffle beer (see below) which might have been the best thing I've ever drank in my life. Yum-o.

It's super contemporary. There are more screens showing sports than you can possibly watch and the beer selection is amazing. They also were very accomodating to our meatless ways and brought several yummy treats.

While Nick and I were dating, Grammie and Mason went on a date, too. Isn't he just the cutest little date!? :) They ran by the book store then hit the movies to take in the new Shrek movie.

We spent plenty of time in the sun, shooting rockets (below), throwing wet sponges and enjoying the mister.

I did get shot in the eye by said rocket. I'm now wearing a pirate patch and I walk with a limp. Not really...but damn, why did Mason shoot me in the eye!?

The Smith's came over for a lovely feast, too! Baby Caroline and Mase enjoyed some pool time, the rest of us enjoyed good food and company.

A trip to the zoo was in order, we. love. the. zoo.

I couldn't be happier that summer has officially begun. Stay tuned for next weekend...Caroline's first birthday party and the one year anniversary of my first 5k.

Do you think I can beat my time from last year?
