Memorial Day Weekend Recap

Hi friends! How was your long weekend? Mine was pretty fantastic and just what the doctor ordered... Saying it's difficult getting back into the grind after the weekend is a major understatement.

I'm become slightly addicted to Camera+ and PicFrames soooo I'll let the pictures from my iPhone do most of the talking.

Pooled it up...

Attended three cookouts... 

All were a great time and two of the three lasted well into the evening with great friends, good beers, and lots of laughs. :)

We also spent a good deal of time at a local nursery and planting new stuff around the casa. Admittedly, Eric has more of a green thumb than I do- probably b/c he's better at researching what grows best in what settings. I just pick what's pretty and then promptly kill it. Oops. *shrugs* Anyhoo, the garden looked pretty good already, but with the intense weather we've had the past couple of years, we thought it could use a boost where some things had died off, dig out some of the old stuff, replace mulch, etc.

Just some of the finished product! :)

I was outside for approximately 35 minutes without applying sunblock and am now all red and itchy. Hell. This does NOT bode well for Barbados. I am going to try to lay out when I can so I don't roast on our first day of vacation in early July. :) #fairskinfailure

Hope you had a great Memorial Day weekend! :)
