Blast Off!

This weekend we took a drive to the MS Gulf Coast. We had lunch in Gulfport, drive down the beach, visited the outlet mall, and took a tour of NASA's new Infinity Science Center.

Molly enjoyed seeing all the rockets and getting to walk through the mock space shuttle.

Bobby and I even got in on the space fun! And of course, Bobby had some freeze dried ice cream to snack on as we drove home. Molly actually tried it, but was not a fan!

Backyard Fun

Ella says "Hi!"

A Dip in the Pool

Summer is just around the corner, which means hot days and lots of fun in the sun!  We always get a pool for the backyard, and Molly was eager to try out her new zebra sprinkler pool this year.  So on a warm afternoon, we set it up and let them play.

Now, I knew Ella would enjoy this because she LOVES water.  Taking a bath is probably one of her favorite events of the day.  When I say bath, she takes off RUNNING and giggling through the house and makes a beeline for the bathtub.  She has even figured out how to climb in all on her own.

To say she enjoyed it would be an understatement.  She had such a blast splashing around and playing with Molly.

We are planning to take the girls to their first beach experience of the summer (and first ever time for Ella!) on Saturday to kick off our Memorial Day weekend. I am excited to see how they enjoy the sand between their toes and the waves crashing around them. 

What do you have planned for Memorial Day?  Whatever it is, enjoy it!
