Memorial Day Weekend 2011

My parents came to visit again this year, and it was so good to see them.  It was a much-needed break for them, and I enjoyed the night my mom and I stayed up talking and giggling.  They even got to hear me give a talk in church, which, believe it or not, made me more nervous that they were there. 

Mom got to attend Jackson's school, too, and he kept her busy doing a lot of "homework," which was actually A LOT of drawing. 

The best part of their "school day" was when they came out to the living room for P.E., and he told my mom, "Okay, now do this," and he demonstrated a push-up.  My mom, who is long past doing push-ups laughed and said, "Uh, I'm not doing that."


On Sunday, we visited the cemetery and took pictures. 

That blue item you see in Jackson's hand is what Grandma bought for him -- a telescope!  He was so excited he got to pick something out. 

He really wanted to take a picture of all of us since we were all taking turns taking pictures.  He took the picture of the flowers, too.
