THE GRINSTEAD FAMILY

LONG WEEKEND

Scott was off during the long Memorial Day weekend, so we accomplished a lot over those 4 days!

On Friday, I finished up the Talent Show. It was a fantastic show, no glitches & TONS of fun. The teachers even complimented the committee for a great show! On Friday night, we went to a friend's house to grill out. The kids played baseball in the back yard and had a great time.

On Saturday, we got up bright & early to head to visit my family. Scott, Jake & Michael went golfing for the day. The rest of us went to Will's girlfriend (Anne) graduation party. After the party, we went back to my parent's house for some R&R. That evening we went to the Pierce's house and joined them & the Ericksen's for pizza. The kids (& Scott & Gopher) ran like crazy people in the back yard playing Freeze Tag & Ghost in the Graveyard. I'm not sure who had the most fun!!

On Sunday, we left early and went to Williamsburg for some shopping. It was a successful trip & we have the bags upon bags of stuff to prove it!! Once we got home, we decided to go see Shrek the Third & to try out dinner at a new Mongolian restaurant, which was great.

On Monday, Scott played with his new power washer & got our deck, patio furniture & grill shining. I worked inside all day cleaning & catching up on laundry. After Scott grilled out for dinner, we finally sat down & watched a little TV.

School is out this week. We had Field Days yesterday, a picnic & end of the year performance on Friday. On Thursday, we have a summer kick off party. On Saturday, Jake has a Twilight Camp & then we are into the next week, which appears to be filling up quickly!! Our summer looks to be full of tons of fun things...

This group was called the "Chicks with the Flips"...Jake thought that they should join the Olympics! This group did the Cha Cha Slide & was a crowd favorite!
This group of 4th graders danced to Thriller & it was AWESOME...
These boys danced to KC & the Sunshine Band's "Boogie Shoes".
