We had a great Memorial Day weekend down at our campsite at Bethpage. It was great to finally have those pools open - Adam had been eyeing them since March - and while he isn't quite tall enough to ride the big slides, he found there's still a lot to enjoy at the pool area.
In fact this was a great weekend to learn a lot about the fun stuff to enjoy at Bethpage. With warm weather we were able to do all kinds of things - like take the dogs swimming - well, Liddy at least. We also played some putt putt and took some walks on the docks to see if anyone was catching any crabs. It was also the perfect weather to sit outside (bugs weren't biting yet) so we got in lots of rounds of Trouble & Chutes & Ladders. And of course what day would be complete without a trip to the ice cream shop and then enjoying said ice cream around the campfire?!
It was a perfect weekend to kick-off the summer and of course we did take some time to remember those who sacrificed everything to make fun weekends like this possible. God bless America - that's for sure!

Memorial Day Weekend...
Once again we were blessed with an amazing Memorial Day weekend thanks to those who have sacrificed so much. We did our best to make the most of it and to be sure we gave thanks to those who made it possible.
We had friends over and enjoyed watching our kids play while we sipped on wine and cooked up treats like soft shelled crab...
We hit some new pools in our neighborhood...
We spent time with family and devoured oysters and blue crabs (we also witnessed Poppy teaching Adam how to pick a crab...seems he's more interested in the hammering part...go figure)...
We did yard work - and by that I mean we trimmed our trees - like..a lot...
It looks good...
To cap it all off we had two of my bestest friends in the world over for dinner and watched as our kiddos forged friendships that we can only hope will be as strong and last as long...
Oh...there was also pie...
Happy Memorial Day and thank you to those who make this wonderful holiday weekend possible (and those who hold down the fort while they are gone...)
