Memorial Day Weekend...

My Aunt Alice and her niece, Linda, came from Colorado to visit so we packed up and headed to Brookhaven for the weekend so we could spend some time with them and of course, the rest of the family too. We had a busy, fun-filled 4 days with all of my family!

Saturday ~ Global Wildlife
The entire family packed up early Saturday morning and headed to Folsom, LA to Global Wildlife. We had been wanting to go so we figured we should do it while we had guests to provide them with a little entertainment...you know, there is NOTHING to do in Brookhaven, MS!

Ashton...getting some food so he could feed the catfish and goldfish...they were HUGE!

Memorial Day ~ Joey and Barbie's House
On Memorial Day, we headed to Joey and Barbie's house for a day of swimming, cooking out, fishing, riding the 4-wheeler, and just relaxing!

Anna Lauren floating on a noodle...she has become quite the little swimmer and is LOVING the water this summer! Good thing because she has another week of swim lessons and then we are headed to the beach...

Jake jumping in...you just had to jump in because the water was freezing...

Nanna and Bently...

Anna Lauren fishing for the first time...she and her Daddy decided they would find another way to spend their time...after about 10 minutes, neither of them were interested anymore...

However, she was not scared to get a cricket for her hook...her Daddy will not even touch a cricket so he was blown away by her just sticking her hand in and getting a cricket...
