Oh how we love holiday weekends




Memorial Day weekend could not have been more fun and more packed with activities.

First, we celebrated the wedding of our friends Katie and Brian. The wedding was beautiful and the happy couple was beaming the entire day. I think they still might be beaming a month later!

Then we woke up early Sunday morning and headed to the Akron area for more adventures. I attended a wedding shower for one of my oldest and best college friends, Ginelle. The shower was so much fun, but, even better, it was great to see and catch up with Ginelle. More wedding beaming!

And while I was at the shower, Chris and the boys hung out at my Aunt Marge's house with my family. I'm sad I don't have any photos (I think I had the camera with me), but when I got back from the shower, I saw two VERY tired but VERY happy little boys. Like asleep by 7 tired. Which never happens.

So, we had our very first experience of spending a night in a hotel with kids. Picture Chris and I sitting at the hotel room desk eating take-out food in the dark and watching Where the Wild Things Are on a portable DVD player. Classy. I promise you that we used to take much more glamorous trips and be way more exciting. But this was still fun. Just a different kind of fun. :)

The next morning we headed to IHOP (yum) and then explored the Akron Zoo before we headed back to the 'Boro. Turns out admission is free if you have a pass to the Boonshoft. Score!
