Memorial Weekend Haps

The Johnson family Memorial weekend always begins with the first swim of the season at the swim club (weather permitting)! The kids were chompin' at the bit to go swimming from the minute they woke up on Saturday, so Bill piled the three of them in the car and was there right at the 11:00am opening time!


Enough pics--can we swim now?


Check out the morning hair!


Wasted and freezing!

Then that night we had a barbecue and celebrated my dad's 75th birthday complete with hamburgers, potatoe salad, fresh fruits and veggies and all the fixin's! YUM!




Everyone is laughin' because I had just fallen over onto my mom who was sitting next to me as I was taking pics. Sophie is apparently the only one who was concerned whether or not I was injured.


The obligatory Sunday pic.


Then on to the cemetary to see Grandma and Grandpa Rawlings' grave.


Monday brought more swimming, yard work and more sewing projects for me (post to come on that!) I love three day weekends--too bad they go by so fast.

Weird... I'm the first one to comment again. I must be bored at work. Love that last picture of Soph. What a crack up. And you changed the background of the posed picture - piano in the background... nice. :) And I love that you fell over while taking the picture! Awesome.

That last picture of Sophie really is so cute. Love her swimming attire! The rest of the photos are cute too!

Vive le Swim Club! The girls could hardly wait to go to. On Mon. morning, Meg woke up and the first thing she said was "Do we get to go to the swim club now?"

It was fun to see your little family at the club on Monday. Bill informed us all the every saturday at 11:00 the Johnson's will be there. i think we are trying to see if a bunch of the Jensens, Bentleys and Neiders can fit that in to our schedule.

SO cute, I need to get over and see you guys! Geez, your little Soph is so cute, I haven't seen her in ages.

Neiders will be there with bells on. Gotta love summers at Maga's pool. You guys are troopers for swimming over the weekend - it was freaking cold!

I LOVE that pic of Sophie on your sidebar. Seriously cute. Who needs to talk when you're that cute?!

Until Saturday...

And PS about the Disneyland post - would you expect anything less from Bill? He doesn't consider it a successful trip unless you're completely tired at the end. LOVE traveling with him. Some of my fondest memories as a kid include trips with Bill. Love that guy.

I hope they showed off their diving! and yes, I will always expect to get the credit for the teaching. Fun weekend!
