A week of vacation

May 26th- While the Hill's were gone to the beach for the week, I was house/dog/cat/fish sitting. I spent the day doing absolutely NOTHING! I took a long bath and read a book. Great start to a "free" week.

puppy play time

May 27th- I went to church and that afternoon I watched television. Reality shows to be more exact. One bonus: it wasn't Disney channel. I went to a friends house for dinner. She was having a get together for her husband's birthday.

May 28th- Happy Memorial Day! I'm so thankful to all the men and women who have or currently serve our country. So blessed to live in the USA. My friend was having a memorial/birthday pool party for her son, so Trey, Ella, and I went. We stayed a while, then we came back to feed the animals and have dinner. They spent the night with me and did really well. This was the first time Ella had stayed the entire night.

May 29th- I got up and fed animals and Ella while Trey still slept. We went to the mall to play and window shop. I then took them to the park and my mom met us there. We left there and I went to get Hollie. She was coming to help me clean out a few more things and to stay the night.

such a sweet and precious girl-she's just growing too fast

May 30th- Hollie and I did clean some. We ended up at the lake for the afternoon. It really was fun. I enjoyed getting to spend that time with her. We are all so busy now, I feel as though I never see her (or Hannah). We came back and grabbed dinner to go. We ate and watched some tv. Afterwards, we finished the cleaning that we needed to get done. It was early to bed for me, because I was tired!

love "the beach", even at the lake 

the sun hid behind the clouds most of the day

May 31st- For the past three years, my mom and I have taken Trey over to Alabama Adventure. Today was the day to do that again this year. I took Hollie home bright and early. Then picked up Trey and my mom met us. We had a great day. We spent all day at the water park and then headed to Subway for dinner.
