i'm building a HUGE fire

Pax and Bryce roasting marshmallows in our fire pit!

The best part of our Memorial Day Weekend was having Bryce home for four days! Its always hard for us to let him go back to work! Pax spends every Monday asking why it can't be the weekend anymore and how come Dad had to go work on people's teeth?

We mostly spent the weekend doing different projects outside ... despite the cold weather. We finished our back fence and started on the back deck. Pax spent part of yesterday picking up sticks and putting them in our fire pit, explaining that he is building a BIG, HUGE FIRE! So before bed Bryce built Paxton a fire and helped him roast some marshmallows. Maybe we'll use the fire pit more this year since Pax gets so excited about it!

We also spent a lot of time with family. It was Bryce's Grandma Shepard's 80th Birthday Party. It was fun to see family that we don't get to see very often. Then we got together on Sunday to finish the leftovers from the party. Monday we went to the cemetary. It was nice to be able to explain to Paxton who's graves these were ... I also learned a lot about some of Bryce's family members that I didn't get to know.
